The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry*

The First Quarter Moon is at 8:42 PM with an Aquarius Sun and a Taurus Moon.
Today, Saturday (2/1/20), the strongest vibrational influence comes from the Sun and Venus joining with Uranus (1*).  This vibration is about your relationship to the community you live in, how you handle your relationships within your community, and about needing to have a positive experience of community where everyone is respected and the needs and well being of everyone is respected. There is joy here and a seeking of spontaneous experiences and freedom within your community.  This is combined with a recognition of the need to balance freedom and spontaneity with the long term well-being of the community and an understanding of your responsibilities within and to the community. Take some time to do something that makes your community a better place for all of you to live.

The Sabian Symbols for this pattern focus on Opening your Awareness to the Patterns of Life around you

13 Aquarius = Sun
A barometer
You are perceiving the fluctuations in the people and the environment around you, recognizing the patterns that are in the process of forming and thus being able to predict and guide unfolding events and/or you are shifting and changing with every passing current, waiting and watching to see how others will react and constantly being so caught up in the currents that you’re blind to the patterns involved
23 Pisces = Venus
Spiritist phenomena
You are experiencing various sorts of spirits operating within the mundane world, evaluating them and their messages for authenticity and depth, sharing appropriate messages with others and/or you are pretending to connect into other realms, putting on a performance, and making up messages in order to gain your own ends
3 Taurus = Uranus
Steps up to a lawn blooming with clover
You are moving up a natural set of steps, learning and growing and opening yourself to the experience of wonder and beauty and/or you are getting fascinated by your vision and caught in that fantasy; failing to do the work to climb the steps and experience the reality

The AstroFrequency(s) for the day (strongest listed first)
{These are modes of operation that are especially available for you to tap into today}
9 (1*) Interaction with others in a community, focus on the needs of the community
11 (1*) Dissatisfaction, Restless Seeking of something different
18 (1*) Union with others in a community, focus with others and how you interact with them in community

The Dancing 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 first, followed by the Moods of the Moon}

Feb 1 – Feb 2 (exact Feb 2) Venus in Pisces is sharing freely (sextile) with Pluto in Capricorn. This vibe begins to influence us around 6 AM and is increasing in influence until it peaks at 2:07 AM on February 2 then decreasing fading out around 11 PM on February 2. This vibration is working on deep levels of attraction and passion within you and helping you sort out what is constructive and what is based on old dysfunctional patterns within you.  Watch for strong reactions these two days and check if you are responding to the present or being triggered by old patterns within you.
 
The Moods of the Moon
{Remember that the quick Moon patterns impact our moods and feelings for a window of a couple of hours either side of their peak time.}
 
Starting at 11:10 PM yesterday, peaking at 1:10 AM, the Moon in Taurus is joining with Uranus in Taurus. This 4 hr period is impulsive and spontaneous, needing the freedom to do whatever comes to mind at this time.  Just double check that what you are doing is safe for you and others.
 
At 8:42 PM, the Moon in Taurus is acting and agitating (square) with the Sun in Aquarius. This is the First Quarter Moon.  See the description in The Cyclic Patterns Diary below.
Starting at 9:11 PM, peaking at 11:11 PM, the Moon in Taurus is flowing freely (trine) with Jupiter in Capricorn. This 4 hr period is expansive and optimistic.  This is a good time for social gatherings and interactions. This is not a good time for concrete commitments as you are prone to be overly optimistic.
 
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.}

The First Quarter Moon is at 8:42 PM today with the Sun in Aquarius and the Moon in Taurus. This vibration will be influencing us for a week until the Full Moon on February 9.  There is a special emphasis here on analytical thought and opening up to the flow of the universe coming through you. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A barometer” which is about recognizing the patterns that are in the process of forming which enables you to predict and guide unfolding events.  The Symbol for the Moon is “A man handling baggage”. This is about facing the blocks and barriers within you and working through them one at a time.  Doing this will enable you to respond to the events of each moment appropriately and effectively.

On January 24 the Moon and Sun joined together in Aquarius. This vibration will be affecting us until the next New Moon on February 23.   This New Moon is especially oriented toward awareness of the needs and stories of others.  There is some tendency to go your own way and do the things that make sense in your particular way of looking at life.  The Sabian Symbol for both the Sun and Moon is “A council of ancestors”.  This is about tuning into ancient wisdom and using it to address the problems of today.  It is important to evaluate what of the ancient wisdom actually applies today and to proceed accordingly.

This eclipse season was from December 26 through January 10.  This vibrational pattern will be in effect until June 5, 2020. This is about mobilizing the resources of yourself and your group to stand up for your principles and being willing to deal with or use focused assertive/aggressive energy if necessary to reach your goal.  There is a warning that if you engage in threats and arguments and bickering, it will keep you from reaching your goals. There is a strong emphasis on mental evaluation and analysis of the long-term consequences of the actions we are taking right now. Remember that it is important to ally yourself with others in order to accomplish our goals.  That you will likely be defeated it you refuse to work with other people being unable to trust anything beyond yourself. It is important to operate on a positive level involves unselfconsciously displaying yourself expressing your gifts with humility and delight.  The challenge is to not come from a place of entitlement and self inflation.

The Winter Solstice was on December 21 as the Sun entered Capricorn.  This is the shortest day and longest night of the year as the Sun turns in its orbit to start increasing its light shining upon us. This winter season brings a great potential for creativity and sensitivity.  There is also a sense of restlessness and dissatisfaction with what is happening in your life and around you.  The challenge is to use your creativity to make your world and your life better. You are encouraged this winter to open up to your ties to the universal awareness that is at the heart of all things and experience an exaltation and consummation that transcends ambition letting of your focus on yourself that brings a tendency to overestimate your personal powers and abilities resulting in damage to yourself. For the winter there is a focus on the Sabian Symbol “Dental Work” which can help you to return your structure to its proper functional form as you rebuild your internal pattern.

The Retrograde Diary:
Introductory Contact for Pluto New Cycle: Turning Forward of Uranus: Final Resolution of Neptune
{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.}
