The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry*

Today, Saturday (04/1/2023), the strongest vibrational influence comes from Mercury and Venus joining with Mars (1*). The strongest vibration today is about evaluating your motives and drives to see if they are actually leading you to the results that you want in your life. Be aware that there is a potential inside of you to develop deep plans on a level that may not be entirely conscious. Then to have those plans rise up inside you as a fully formed plan of action that you feel you need to implement. There is a focus here on being involved in creating beauty and in communicating in a beautiful way. If you can follow these principles you may have some unusual results today. This is a day to act on what is within you. (For VA Students: 16, 32)

The AstroFrequency(s) for the day (strongest listed first)
16 (1*) Deep motivations and desires expressed as action

The Sabian Symbols of our Featured Planets:, Mercury, Venus, Mars >>> The uplifting message from the featured planet positions that shows the way through: You are developing a greater awareness of the nature of your interaction with all that is around you seeing more clearly the patterns that are developing and how you are learning from your interactions and exchanges with other people and with the world around you. You are feeling a sense of yourself as a newly formed being in your own right. You are recognizing the importance of claiming your power and operating according to your natural abilities. The more dysfunctional expression of this message: You are blaming circumstances for the experiences you are having feeling resentful and abused and not seeing how you are contributing to the unfolding pattern of your experiences. You are reacting in fear and rejecting the new pattern rising up within you. You are getting caught up in contentious exchanges of ideas and feelings and not seeing the reality that transcends the mind.

26 Aries = Mercury [Game birds feathering their nests] You are developing a greater awareness of the nature of your interaction with all that is around you seeing more clearly the patterns that are developing and how you are learning from your interactions and exchanges with other people and with the world around you and/or you are blaming circumstances for the experiences you are having feeling resentful and abused and not seeing how you are contributing to the unfolding pattern of your experiences

19 Taurus = Venus [A newly formed continent] You are feeling a sense of yourself as a newly formed being in your own right and/or you are reacting in fear and rejecting the new pattern rising up within you

4 Cancer = Mars [A cat arguing with a mouse] You are recognizing the importance of claiming your power and operating according to your natural abilities and/or you are getting caught up in contentious exchanges of ideas and feelings and not seeing the reality that transcends the mind

The Two Planet Diary
{When 2 planets interact it influences the way we want to express ourselves, our attitudes, moods, and impulses. Becoming aware of these vibrations helps us to guide these aspects of ourselves with awareness rather than being controlled by them. There are longer patterns which tend to have more impact because we feel them for several days in a row and there are quick Moon patterns that impact our moods and feelings for a window of couple of hours either side of the time given. The longer patterns are stronger and so are listed here, followed by a section on the Moods of the Moon}

Mar 28 – Apr 2 (exact Mar 30) Mars in Cancer is flowing freely (trine) with Saturn in Pisces. This vibe is decreasing fading out around 3 AM on Apr 2. This vibration is about taking the actions that are fundamental and essential in any situation to accomplish your goals. You may find it a bit easier to keep your actions focused and on target at this time.

The Moods of the Moon
{The Moon patterns only last a short period of time. They impact our moods and feelings for around 4 hours, 2 hours each side of the exact position.}

Starting at 2:30 AM, peaking at 4:30 AM, the Moon in Leo is acting and agitating (square) with Uranus in Taurus. In this 4 hr period your emotions could be scattered all over the place with you feeling one thing one moment and another the next and you have the energy and desire to act on each of these things as it spontaneously surfaces. It is good to have a little bit of you watching this process and every once in a while saying, “I better wait on that one.”

Starting at 6:06 AM, peaking at 8:06 AM, the Moon in Leo is acting and agitating (square) with Venus in Taurus. This 4 hr period brings a desire to feel beautiful. You will probably be more aware of your appearance and the appearance of the world around you. You may be moved to make something around you look nicer.

Starting at 7:25 AM, peaking at 9:25 AM, the Moon in Leo is flowing freely (trine) with Jupiter in Aries. In this 4 hr period there is a sense of emotional openness and expansion within you. This can feel either good or bad depending on what your general feeling at the time is.

The Cyclic Patterns Diary {These are patterns that continue over an extended period of time and you may find that rereading this periodically will help you effectively handle what we are all experiencing as our “astral weather” in this time period.}

On March 28, the First Quarter Moon occurred with the Moon in Cancer and with the Sun in Aries. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the Full Moon on April 5. This vibrational pattern encourages you to take action based on the deeper more profound awareness in the depths of your being. There is a sense of personal emotional attunement to the cycles that are happening in our lives and this is an important time for you to share your truth and at the same time for you to be open to hearing the truth of those around you. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A Crystal Gazer”. This encourages you to be open to taking on new forms and patterns that will guide your expression. Be aware that there is some tendency to seek to block yourself off from the awareness being offered to you. The Symbol for the Moon is “A tiny nude miss reaching in the water for a fish”. This is about tentatively reaching out to seek to connect in with and start to understand an elusive deeper level within yourself. There is wonder here if you can open up to it.

On March 21, the New Moon occurred with the Moon and Sun joining together in Aries. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the next New Moon on April 19. This vibrational pattern brings the Sun and Moon together with Mercury and Neptune. This brings a sense of connecting within yourself into your emotional patterns and feelings combining them with the ideas you find fascinating. You may be able to see some new combinations. This may be aided by discussions with others where you can both share the ideas you are finding especially interesting at this time. There is a potential here to get in touch with your dreams and be able to see them in a different light. The Sabian Symbol for the New Moon is “A woman rises out of water, a seal rises and embraces her”. This encourages you to open up to a feeling of new beginnings within you. There is the potential for something new to start in your life if you are open to it and make a commitment to moving into these new potentials.

On March 20 the Spring Equinox occurred as the Sun enters Aries. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the Summer Solstice on June 21. This is the balancing point of the year when the days and nights are of equal length. This year’s Spring Equinox brings a strong feeling of needing to have your ideas be exceprtional and amazing. The vibration for Spring is deeply involved in sharing other people’s stories and there is a tendency to act based on the things you have learned from others to seek to make the lives of those around you better. The Sabian Symbol for the distance from the Sun to the Moon is “A master instructing his pupil. This is about participating in the transfer of higher knowledge and wisdom, being open to receiving deep insights from unexpected places. This energy becomes distorted if you claim a superior status and special privileges based on your position. This is about recognizing the worth and authority of each person.

On November 8, the Full Moon Lunar Eclipse occurred with the Sun in Scorpio opposite the Moon in Taurus. This is the end of this eclipse season and this vibrational pattern will be influencing us until the next Eclipse Season starts on April 20, 2023. This vibrational energy is seeking to get to the true or fundamental essence helping each person discover the unique essence within them and realize how amazing and beautiful it is. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A woman the father of her own child”. This symbol is about giving birth to yourself as a conscious spiritual being connected in with the greater reality around you. The challenge is not to move into feelings of being alone and abandoned which may force you into an unwanted independence without support. The Moon Symbol is “A battle between the swords and the torches”. This might lead you into engaging in a battle between the forces of light, awareness & love and the forces of domination & control with the light shining in and revealing the strongly held distortions that must be defeated. It is important to claim your power and not surrender to the domination and control of others.

On October 25, the New Moon Solar Eclipse occurred with the Sun and Moon in Scorpio. This is the start of this eclipse season and this vibrational pattern will be influencing us until the next Eclipse Season starts on April 20, 2023. This vibrational energy brings a sense of the importance of listening to the stories of others. There is a drive towards expanded action seeking to respond to the stories and the needs you encounter in the people around you. This involves a sense of reaching for the fundamental beauty in others that you can see more clearly at this time. The Sabian Symbol for the eclipse is “A house-raising”. This symbol is about being involved in building a new structure for yourself with the entire community generously gathering and harmoniously participating in the process according to their skills and abilities. This is a reminder that others help make our lives work right. Take care not to refuse the help of others because of a lack of trust or an excessive sense of independence related to fear of being controlled. Also be aware that you may have a belief that you do not deserve help or do not have the right to ask for help. This is your own issues. We all need help at times.

The Retrograde Diary: NO DEGREE CHANGES TODAY >> Introductory phase of Saturn, Neptune: Turning Backward of Pluto: Resolution of Uranus {During the apparent retrograde period each planet’s movement relative to the backdrop of the stars slows down, reverses and then turns back around forward again concentrating its vibration in a particular area. There are issues that each planet focuses on during the period leading up to its turn backwards. These issues are addressed again to be reworked on during the retrograde period [in brackets] then a new understanding of these issues occurs during the post retrograde period. These issues are not from Vibrational Astrology, this is an experiment based on interpretations of the Sabian Symbols that I wrote many years ago. If an entry resonates with you, then claim it, if not, release it, it was for someone else. I would very much like your feedback on this. Points of especially concentrated energy are marked with “!”}
