The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry
 
Today, Saturday (1/11/20), the strongest vibrational influence comes from Mercury joining with Saturn and Pluto (15*).  This vibration is about overwhelmingly strong mental activity focused on analysis and evaluation of what is really important to us in the long-run.  There is a sense that figuring this out is absolutely essential on every level.  Look at your life and the world around you and what the long term implications of current actions and decisions are.  If you do not face the challenge of doing this evaluation and act appropriately on your conclusions, you will regret it.  This pattern is life changing for you and for the world. This is the beginning of the Saturn Pluto conjunction which is exact tomorrow January 12.  Saturn-Pluto will not conjunct again until 2053.  This conjunction tends to coincide with major changes in our institutions.

The AstroFrequency(s) for the day (strongest listed first)
{These are modes of operation that are especially available for you to tap into today}
1 (11*) Doing things your own way, evaluating the ideas of others and only changing if you agree with them.
2 (8*) Sharing or conflicting with others
3 (6*) Free flowing, unrestricted movement of energy in either positive or negative directions.

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}

Jan 12 – Jan 13 (exact Jan 12) Mercury in Capricorn is joining with Pluto in Capricorn. This vibe begins to influence us around 2 PM and is increasing in influence until it peaks at 4:51 AM on January 12 then decreasing fading out around 8 PM on January 13. This vibration has the mind compulsively focused on stepping back and seeing current personal and world experiences objectively.

Jan 12 – Jan 13 (exact Jan 12) Mercury in Capricorn is joining with Saturn in Capricorn. This vibe begins to influence us around 3 PM and is increasing in influence until it peaks at 5:14 AM on January 12 then decreasing fading out around 8 PM on January 13. This vibration is very analytical as you and everyone else are working to figure out what the long-term consequences of current behaviors are.  What really needs to be done?

Jan 8 – Jan 12 (exact Jan 10) the Sun in Capricorn is joining with Mercury in Capricorn.
This vibe is decreasing fading out around 1 AM on January 12. This vibration is focused on your mind and thinking about and analyzing everything as a basis for action.  There is a lot of capability for objective evaluation under this vibration.

Dec 31, 2019 – Jan 24, 2020 (exact Jan 12) Saturn in Capricorn is joining with Pluto in Capricorn. This vibe is increasing in influence until it peaks at 11:58 AM on January 12, 2020 then decreasing fading out around 6 AM on January 24 This vibration is the strongest pattern at this turn of the year.  It is about sensing what is of long term importance and acting purposefully and objectively with an awareness of the long term consequences  of your actions.  This is a time to let trivial feelings and issues go as you focus on what is really significant.

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.}
 
At 7:16 AM the Moon enters Leo and for  2 ½ days it brings a feeling of wanting to express yourself as a unique individual in a broad sweeping dramatic fashion. You will also enjoy the unique individual expressions of others around you.

Starting at 9:43 AM, peaking at 11:43 AM, the Moon in Leo is acting and agitating (square) with Uranus in Taurus. This 4 hr period involves a strong need for freedom to do what you feel like doing, whatever comes into your head.  This time is marked by spontaneous, impulsive actions.  Take care to check for a moment before you act to see if what you are doing is safe for you and those around you.
 
Starting at 2:53 PM, peaking at 4:53 PM, the Moon in Leo is flowing freely (trine) with Mars in Sagittarius. This 4 hr period is overflowing with energy that needs to be expressed.  Do something active like exercise, sports or a project that requires you to use your muscles extensively.  This energy needs to be expressed.
 
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 January 10, a Full Moon Lunar Eclipse occurred with the Sun in Capricorn and the Moon in Cancer.  This is an extremely powerful vibration with a strong need for mental evaluation and analysis of the long-term consequences of the actions we are taking right now. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A relay race” which reminds us that it is important to ally ourselves 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. The Moon Symbol is “A prima donna singing” which 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.

On December 26, a New Moon Solar Eclipse occurred with the Sun and Moon joined in Capricorn. This vibration will influence us until the next Eclipse Season which begins on July 2, 2020. We start a new Eclipse Season with this New Moon as the Sun and Moon are joined by Jupiter (see the discussion at the beginning of this report.) The Sabian Symbol for the Sun and Moon is “Indians rowing a canoe and dancing a war dance”.  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. This is combined with Jupiter which is just one degree from the Sun and Moon. Jupiter’s Sabian Symbol is “A dark archway and ten logs at the bottom” which involves growing through facing previous actions and beliefs that have blocked and transforming those blockages into bridges that open you up to new understanding allowing you to transcend your previous blockages.

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: Check out changes today:
Turning Forward of Uranus: Final Resolution of Saturn, Neptune, 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.}
