The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry*

At 2:47 AM the First Quarter Moon occurs with the Moon in Cancer and the Sun in Aries.

Today, Saturday (4/9/2022), the strongest vibrational influence comes from Mars joining with Neptune and Pluto (2*). The strongest vibrational pattern today is about digging down deep inside yourself and cleaning out the blockages that have been preventing you from getting a better awareness of and connection with the true essence of your being. This is the place where your pure spirit essence is where you are in resonance with the spirit of life, the spirit of the universe. Today brings a possibility of finding a way into this essence that has been blocked off for you. You may also find that you have the opportunity to help someone else make these special connections. Remember we all have this special spirit connection deep within us and we all have the potential to connect into it and know more clearly who we really are. (For VA Students: 13, 26).

The AstroFrequency(s) for the day (strongest listed first)
13 (5*) Internally focused on moving Beyond Average or Mediocre
26 (2*) Moves Beyond Average or Mediocre in interactions with others

The Sabian Symbols of our Featured Planets:, Mars, Neptune, Pluto
The uplifting message from the featured planet positions that shows the way through: You are basing your pattern on the foundation principles of life, developing a delicate and beautiful essence within that pattern that is radiating love, peace, beauty and simplicity, as you ground yourself and use your emotions appropriately, opening to the flow of spirit moving through you. You are truly grounding within yourself in the essence of yourself, recognizing your boundaries and empowering yourself while learning how to balance your needs against the needs of those around you. You are beginning to read, with great clarity, the hidden level of reality, putting aside your skepticism, opening to your intuitive awareness, taking responsibility for your impact on everything around you. The more dysfunctional expression of this message: You are focusing on conventionality and its meaningless trappings, closing off from subtle awarenesses and sensitivity, becoming shy and unresponsive, potentially shriveling up and dying. You are putting boundaries between yourself and your community and the rest of the world, feeling alienated and deserted and alone. You are superstitiously depending on signs around you and blindly following these signs, not taking responsibility for your life or your decisions.

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}

Apr 9 – Apr 10 (exact Apr 10) Mercury in Aries is acting and agitating (square) with Pluto in Capricorn. This vibe begins to influence us around 6 PM and is increasing in influence until it peaks at 4:45 AM on Apr 10 then decreasing fading out around 4:30 PM on Apr 10. This vibration brings intense focus to your thought processes. This is an excellent time to work on a critical project that you need to accomplish.

Apr 7 – Apr 9 (exact Apr 8) Mercury in Aries is sharing freely (sextile) with Mars in Aquarius. This vibe is decreasing fading out around 8 AM. This vibration is very interesting in investigating its areas of interest to figure out how things work and be able to use this information in its life. There is a desire to learn new things that can be applied in some practical manner. So go investigate something you have been wanting to know about.

Apr 7 – Apr 17 (exact Apr 12) Jupiter in Pisces is joining with Neptune in Pisces. This vibe is increasing in influence until it peaks at 10:43 AM on Apr 12 then decreasing fading out around 4 PM on Apr 17. This vibration involves expanding your dreams and visions through forming unexpected connections between concepts or objects that are not normally connected together. There is an opportunity here to change your life as you make your dreams come true.

The Moods of the Moon.
{Remember that the quicker Moon patterns impact our moods and feelings for a short window of time around 4 hours, 2 hours each side of the exact position.}

At 2:47 AM, the Moon in Cancer is acting and agitating (square) with the Sun in Aries. This is the First Quarter Moon. See the Cyclic Patterns Diary.

Starting at 8:36 AM, peaking at 10:36 AM, the Moon in Cancer is flowing freely (trine) with Jupiter in Pisces. 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.
Starting at 9:46 AM, peaking at 11:46 AM, the Moon in Cancer is flowing freely (trine) with Neptune in Pisces. This 4 hr period takes you into your dreams, they are living inside you and you are feeling them. You may find yourself daydreaming more than usual. You can use this time to get deeply in touch with your dreams and draw inspiration from them to help you make them more real.

Starting at 5:25 PM, peaking at 7:25 PM, the Moon in Cancer is acting and agitating (square) with Mercury in Aries. This 4 hr period involves your emotions and moods stimulating your mind and results in you needing to balance your mind and emotions in order to act in clear constructive ways. It is important for you to pay attention to your feelings and your thoughts on whatever is happening now and remember to think before you act.
Starting at 7:01 PM, peaking at 9:01 PM, the Moon in Cancer is opposing Pluto in Capricorn. In this 4 hr period you may connect into deep, even ancient feelings, within you if something another person does triggers you. Be aware of this potential and if it happens study what comes up and work on releasing it. If you respond directly to the other person, you are likely to over-react. This can be a powerful wave of energy that washes over you. You may need to walk away from the situation to keep from dumping this old energy on another person.

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.}

At 2:47 AM the First Quarter Moon occurs with the Moon in Cancer and the Sun in Aries. This vibrational pattern will be influencing us until the Full Moon on April 16. There is a deep soul energy that is being tapped into at this point. It brings the potential for focused creativity to arise up within you as you tap into the deep essence of yourself and free your gifts. There is also an openness here to connection in with the mystery that is at the core of life that we can’t express in words. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A Young Girl Feeding Birds in Winter” which is about you making connection with and expressing the nurturing love that is the core of the realm of manifestation, the love that is always there, even in times of apparent deprivation. The Symbol for the Moon is “Gondoliers in a Serenade” which is about approaching life with awe and wonder humbled by the beauty of the world and life around you. There is a warning to be real and genuine and not seek to manipulate people into doing what you want them to do.

On April 1, the New Moon occurred with the Moon joining the Sun in Aries. This vibrational pattern will be influencing us until the next New Moon on April 30. This energy pattern focuses on the ways the past is influencing us in the present working with psychological concepts and historical awareness. There is an emphasis on open unstructured creative exploration that can expand your awareness and enable you to move into a greater more expansive sense of the truth. The Sabian Symbol for the New Moon is “A Flock of Wild Geese” which is about breaking free of social expectations and seeking to express your true inner self. This is about letting go of social expectations rather than holding onto them in a rebellion that is reacting to the attempt of others to limit you and force you into a rigid narrowly defined shape.

On March 20 the Spring Equinox occurred as the Sun entered Aries. This seasonal vibrational pattern will be influencing us until the Summer Solstice on June 21. This energy pattern calls us to adjust our ideas of the past and history becoming aware of where our emotions have been interfering with our understanding. This brings the potential for a great deal of creativity this spring. This pattern also encourages us evaluating our understanding of life to recognize where we are being effective and where we are not and to adjust our ways of dealing with things accordingly. The Sabian Symbol for the Spring Equinox comes from the relationship of the Sun to the Moon. It is “A Man’s Head” which encourages us to recognize that each of us is a distinct person with specific characteristics of value. The warning is to take care that you do not over-value yourself at the expense of others.

On December 4, a New Moon Solar Eclipse occurred with the Sun and Moon in Sagittarius. This is the final event of this eclipse season. It will be influencing us at least until the start of the next Eclipse Season on April 30, 2022. There is a special emphasis in this Eclipse on evaluating the patterns we are living by. It is especially important to consider the strengths and weaknesses of the ways that we have been understanding the world. There is a restlessness and a need to move out and find a different world that will work more effectively and be more satisfactory. The Sabian Symbol for the Eclipse is “A Widow’s Past brought to Light”. This is about facing your past actions, the destructiveness, and blindness that you have been involved in and taking responsibility for them. The emphasis is on working on the distorted patterns within you, making amends, and forgiving yourself and others so that you can make a new beginning.

On November 19, a Full Moon Lunar Eclipse occurred with the Moon in Taurus opposing the Sun 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 30, 2022. This Vibrational Pattern involves the Sun and Moon especially strongly interacting with Mercury. This shows that emotional patterns and history will be very important during this next 5 months. There is a focus on creating programs, concepts that are acceptable to everybody involved. There is also an awareness of the needs of people and how they are or are not being met. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “The King of the Fairies approaching his Domain” which points to the importance of understanding your true essence, the domain within the core of your being where you’re truly and confidently in command of yourself. If you are not in touch with the core of your being you may try to use control to prove your superiority. The Moon Symbol is “A Woman pursued by Mature Romance”. This is about participating in a mature type of love that involves a greater awareness of your interconnectivity to others. There is a warning to not closing down to love because you are being guided by social expectations of what love means and what types of love are permissible.

The Retrograde Diary: NO DEGREE CHANGES TODAY
Introductory Contact for Saturn, Neptune: Turning back 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 “!”}
