The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry
Today, Saturday (12/9/2023),the strongest vibrational influence comes from the Moon and Venus joining with Jupiter (2*). The strongest vibrational energy today is about being out there in the world interaction with what is going on around you in various ways. This may involved seeking to introduce your ideas into the world without compromise and change the way others understand what is happening. Or in contrast it may involve being sensitive to the ideas of others and seeking to find a way that others can accept and adjust to what you are introducing. There is also the potential here for interaction with and exploration of various ways of accomplishing your goals that will bring a natural growth and shift in understanding. Additionally there is sometimes a sense of dissatisfaction with everything around you bringing a need to seek a more satisfactory place to be. This can result in you moving into new and different interactions with new people possibly in new surroundings. This is a time of doing. (For VA Students: 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22, 24)
The AstroFrequency(s) for the day (strongest listed first)
26 (9*) Moves Beyond Average or Mediocre in interactions with others
The Sabian Symbols of our Featured Planets: Moon, Venus, Jupiter >>>
The uplifting message from the featured planet positions that shows the way through:
You are going out into the rugged dangerous depths of yourself, seeking to break up the rigid structures within you that are keeping you from connecting into the gold of your true self. You are exploring the deepest realms of your being, learning about the tremendous pressures operating within you, opening to a new level of awareness of your talents and gifts. You are experiencing love that recognizes your alienation and embraces it; reaching across the abyss to affirm you.
The more dysfunctional expression of this message:
You are refusing to explore the realms that have opened up within you fearing that you can’t handle what you find. You are losing touch with the reality around you as you get sucked down into your depths and overwhelmed by the pressures within you. You are rejecting the love being offered; as you continue to focus on your separateness, alienation and loneliness.
6 Scorpio = Moon merging with Venus [A gold rush] You are going out into the rugged dangerous depths of yourself, seeking to break up the rigid structures within you that are keeping you from connecting into the gold of your true self and/or you are refusing to explore the realms that have opened up within you fearing that you can’t handle what you find
7 Scorpio = Venus [Deep-sea divers] You are exploring the deepest realms of your being, learning about the tremendous pressures operating within you, opening to a new level of awareness of your talents and gifts and/or you are losing touch with the reality around you as you get sucked down into your depths and overwhelmed by the pressures within you
7 Taurus = Jupiter [A woman of Samaria] You are experiencing love that recognizes your alienation and embraces it; reaching across the abyss to affirm you and/or you are rejecting the love being offered; as you continue to focus on your separateness, alienation and loneliness
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 a couple of hours either side of the exact time of the aspect. The longer patterns are stronger and so are listed here, followed by a section on the Moods of the Moon}
Dec 9 – Dec 10 (exact Dec 9) Venus in Scorpio is opposing Jupiter in Taurus. This vibe begins to influence us around 4 AM on Dec. 9 and is increasing in influence until it peaks at 10:35 PM on Dec. 9 then decreasing fading out around 6 PM on Dec. 10. This vibrational energy pattern brings a desire to experience rich expansive beauty. This can be going to some beautiful social event and enjoying new experiences interacting with others making new friends. This can also be going to a place that is beautiful to you that touches your soul getting an opportunity to feed your soul with natural beauty or beauty created by other people. Enjoy!
Dec 6 – Dec 9 (exact Dec 7) Mercury in Capricorn is flowing freely (trine) with Jupiter in Taurus. This vibe is decreasing fading out around 8 AM on Dec. 9. This vibrational energy pattern is about seeing the big picture. There is an increased capacity to step back and disconnect enough to see the big picture and how everything fits together.
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 11:33 PM yesterday, peaking at 1:33 AM early December 9, the Moon in Scorpio is flowing freely (trine) with Saturn in Pisces. This 4 hr period stimulates an internal awareness of the patterns that are working for your long term benefit and those that are undermining your goals. It is easier to shift at this time to a more effective pattern that supports your goals.
Starting at 7:23 AM, peaking at 9:23 AM, the Moon in Scorpio is joining with Venus in Scorpio. This 4 hr period should bring some really good feelings and a focus on loving caring relationships where you can feel at one with the people you love.
Starting at 8:41 AM, peaking at 10:41 AM, the Moon in Scorpio is opposing Jupiter in Taurus. In this 4 hr period you will be feeling optimistic and expansive and wanting to expand your horizons by having new experiences and getting to know new people. This is a really good time to be involved in social interactions with other people.
Starting at 10:46 AM, peaking at 12:46 PM, the Moon in Scorpio is sharing freely (sextile) with Mercury in Capricorn. This 4 hr period brings a focus on thinking and communicating those thoughts, so writing down your thoughts, and possibly communicating what you are thinking about in a discussion or just sitting and thinking for a while would be profitable. This has the emotions and the mind interacting well and is a good time to work on important projects.
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 December 5, the Third Quarter Moon occurred with the Moon in Virgo and the Sun in Sagittarius. This vibrational energy pattern will be influencing us until the next New Moon on December 12, 2023.This vibrational energy pattern relates to getting in touch with your mission and purpose in life and brings opportunities to express that mission in ways that are easy for others to accept. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A Widow’s Past brought to Light” which relates to facing your past misunderstandings and mistakes and taking responsibility for your past actions then proceeding to work on the distorted matters within you, make amends where possible and forgive yourself and others so you can make new beginning. The Moon Symbol is “A Strong Hand supplanting Political Hysteria”. This is about using the power of your personality and your spiritual awareness to calm the situation down when others are very emotionally upset. It is important to do this without manipulating others for your personal gain.
On November 27, 2023, the Full Moon occurred with the Moon in Gemini and the Sun in Sagittarius. This vibrational energy pattern will be influencing us until the next New Moon on December 12, 2023.This vibrational energy pattern involves a shared feeling of dissatisfaction that brings feelings of restlessness. There is a tendency to reject the standard concepts used to determine our actions especially in uncertain situations. Instead, there is an assessment of the situation based on analysis and intuition resulting in coming up with your own answer independent of the common wisdom and then seeking to achieve results using your own solution to the problem. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “An Old Owl up in a Tree” which brings you in contact with one who can help you to understand what is happening more clearly, enabling you to see through the darkness and better understand the fundamental principles that are operating. Take care to not be sure you know it all and to gather input from others in your process of analysis. The Symbol for the Moon is “A Radical Magazine” which is about opening up the deeper, fundamental energies that are at the root of life that support all we do here on earth
On November 13, 2023, the New Moon occurred with the Moon in Scorpio and the Sun in Scorpio. This vibrational energy pattern will be influencing us until the next New Moon on December12, 2023. This vibration energy is very highly charged with the potential for quick and possibly volatile actions. It is important to be very present in the moment during this time period. There is also the possibility for sudden beauty and acts of kindness. You make this period a reflection of your soul and spirit. The Sabian Symbol for the New Moon is “A Soldier derelict in Duty”. This speaks to rigid, intolerable patterns of duty and obligation that can compromise your personal integrity. This symbol calls you to follow your personal integrity rather than violate it for the sake of duty and obligation. You are challenged to evaluate what you are doing and hold it to a higher standard that comes from your deepest being.
On October 28 the Full Moon Lunar Eclipse occurred with the Moon in Taurus and the Sun in Scorpio. This vibrational energy pattern will be influencing us until the next Lunar Eclipse on Mar 25, 2024. This vibrational energy brings a deep desire to expand your emotional connections and to learn new and different things. There is an underlying whisper of dreams of beauty and exotic experiences. There may be some tendency to project your dreams into the world and not know what is real and what is not. There is a strong need to participate in a new and different worldview that will at least give the hope of involvement in a creative community. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A Gold Rush” which can represent you going out into the rugged dangerous depths of yourself and seeking to break up the rigid structures within you that are keeping you from connecting into the gold of your true self. The Moon Symbols is “A Bridge being built across a Gorge”. Here is the opportunity to build a bridge that will cross the abyss and connect you to the next level of awareness. This is not something we can do by ourselves, but if you ask for help from spirit, you will receive it.
On October 14, 2023 the New Moon Solar Eclipse occurred with the Sun and Moon in Libra. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the next Solar Eclipse on April 8, 2024. This vibrational energy is particularly oriented towards involvement in creative groups. There is a desire to explore without an agenda and see what wonders you can find. This involves a passion for learning and applying what you have learned. There is a desire to expand emotionally at a pace you can handle effectively. There is also a need to go out and act and express yourself, make your life happen. The Sabian Symbol for the Eclipse is “A Child giving Birds a Drink at a Fountain”. This is about drawing from the fountain of spiritual nourishment, replenishing yourself and generously sharing with those around you who are not able to obtain it for themselves.
On September 23, the Fall Equinox occurred as the Sun entered Libra. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the Winter Solstice on December 21. At the Fall Equinox day and night are of equal length and we are moving towards the shorter days of Fall and Winter. This vibrational pattern is showing the Sun in relationship to Neptune and Pluto bringing a compulsive focus on your dreams and ideals and the potential for them to flow into realization in harmony with other people. There is a lot of mental energy with the potential to learn and develop new ideas and to try to act on your ideas and possibly get frustrated and angry if you are opposed. The desire is to bridge the gap in understanding and transmit to others what you have learned. There is also the potential for expanding your spiritual understandings during the Fall. The Sabian symbol for the Sun-Moon relationship is “Two Fairies on a Moonlit Night”. You may discover two amazing, wonderful magical potentials illuminated in the darkness within you, the sensitive receptive potential and the potential to actin effective ways that bring your dreams to life, showing you that you are capable of being more than you ever dreamed of. On the flip side you may be misunderstanding what you are perceiving and getting caught up in illusion and fantasy which can result in being confused and irresponsible.
The Retrograde Diary: NO DEGREE CHANGES TODAY >> Introductory Phase of Mercury: Reworking of Jupiter, Uranus: Turning Forward of Neptune: Resolution of Saturn, Pluto {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 “!!!”}
