The Vibrational Astrology Diaryby Linda Berry
Today (1/19/18) Mercury, Venus and Mars (2*) join together to form the strongest vibration influencing us. This vibration focuses us on our communities and our joint responsibility for the welfare of all of us. There is a desire to act in thoughtful ways to make our communities more beautiful and more loving. We want to share this process with others and work together. Today there is a tremendous need for respect and acceptance of others with everyone supporting everyone else and still being free to be themselves. Today is a very good day to do something to make your community a better place for people to live.

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 19 – Jan 22 (exact Jan 21) Mars in Aries is acting and agitating (square) with Saturn in Capricorn. We begin to feel this influence about 1 PM today and it increases in influence peaking on Jan 21. This vibration involves the desire to act to get free of the restrictions we are feeling that keep us from truly being who we feel we are meant to be. There is a willingness to take the actions necessary to break free of the limiting circumstances we find ourselves in. This is a great energy to use to make something happen, but test out inside yourself whether you really want the result.
Jan 19 – Feb 9 (exact Jan 31) Saturn in Capricorn is sharing freely (sextile) with Neptune in Pisces. About 6 AM the effect of this aspect just barely begins to be felt. It will increase in influence very slowly until it peaks on Jan 31. This vibration will be an underlying base note for the next few weeks. This is about wanting to know the truth that underlies the many illusions and deceptions that are a part of the world. There is a strong desire to see the deeper reality that lies below the appearances of the world. This almost takes on the sense of being a spiritual quest.
Jan 18 – Jan 19 (exact Jan 18) Mercury in Capricorn is joining with Pluto in Capricorn.
This vibration decreasing this morning until it fades out at about 6 AM. This is shorter than a lot of the two planet patterns as Mercury is moving very fast. It brings a sense of heightened mental intensity to today and tomorrow. You may find it a little easier to concentrate on your tasks than normal.
Jan 17 – Jan 19 (exact Jan 18) the Sun in Capricorn is acting and agitating (square) with Uranus in Aries. This vibration is decreasing in influence until it fades out about 8 PM. This is about a deep attunement to the flows and cycles of life recognizing that they are teaching us, but they may be disruptive as they work on removing that which is no longer relevant to us. There is a tremendous need here for freedom to express yourself in your own unique way without being controlled by other people.
Jan 16 – Jan 20 (exact Jan 18) Venus in Sagittarius is flowing freely (trine) with Mars in Aries. This vibration is slowly decreasing its impact all day today fading out tomorrow. At core this vibration is about doing beautiful things and acting on your feelings of attraction. There is a free flowing sense of expression here that can be very delightful. This is a great vibe for experiencing life around you on a more direct level. Walk in the rain or make something beautiful to use around your home or redesign some area of your home so that it suits you better and is more attractive.
Jan 7 – Jan 19 (exact Jan 13) Jupiter in Sagittarius is acting and agitating (square) with Neptune in Pisces. The vibration between Jupiter and Neptune is slowly decreasing today until it fades out about 1 PM. This is a longer aspect that will be in the background. It is focused on your dreams and visions and actions to take to bring forth the life you would like to live.
The Moods of the Moon
{Remember that the quick Moon patterns that impact our moods and feelings for a window of a couple of hours either side of their listed time.}
Starting at 5:28 PM, peaking at 7:28 PM, the Moon in Cancer is acting and agitating (square) with Mars in Aries. This 4 hr period brings a strong desire for action based on your emotional feelings. Take just a moment to evaluate what you are about to do and check whether you are acting in accord with your dreams and visions. The emotions can be worked up enough at this time that we may unintentionally harm rather than help our long term goals.
Starting at 6:48 PM, peaking at 8:48 PM, the Moon in Cancer is opposing Saturn in Capricorn. This 4 hr period brings the ability to step back and look at our long term goals and allow that to guide our feelings and actions.
Starting at 8:19 PM, peaking at 10:19 PM, the Moon in Cancer is flowing freely (trine) with Neptune in Pisces. This 4 hr period allows us to move more in contact with our dreams and sense the potential for them to unfold in our lives.
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 Jan 14 the First Quarter Moon occurred with the Sun in Capricorn and the Moon in Aries. This is about an awareness deep within you almost below consciousness rising up to consciousness with a sense of what you need to do at this time. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A woman entering a convent”. This is about the importance of forming a deeper more effective connection to spirit in order to be of service to others. The Moon Symbol is “An open window and a net curtain blowing into a cornucopia”. This brings the promise that as you open to the spirit and follow the path that it shows you, the things you need will come to you. If you refuse to open up and reject what is being offered to you you may end up living in a state of deprivation and loss.
On Jan 5 we started a new Eclipse Cycle as well as a New Moon cycle. This New Moon is a partial Solar Eclipse with the Sun and the Moon joining together in the middle of Capricorn. This eclipse heralds a time when we especially look at how we are using power and how our government officials and other power sources are using or abusing their power. We have the opportunity here to claim our power if we are willing to. This eclipse will be influencing us for this eclipse cycle which lasts until July 2. The core energy of this eclipse is focused on which patterns are sustainable and meaningful in the long term with a recognition that we must get rid of patterns that are not sustainable. There is a very strong creative energy in this eclipse. Thus, some new ways of operating and perhaps new inventions are likely during this time period. There is also a strong sense of the specialness and importance of everyone. The Sabian Symbol for this eclipse is “Boys and girls in gymnasium suits”. This is about developing your skill and power within a structured group through group interaction and respect for everyone without showing off and looking down on those who know less than you do. Getting into a group where you can learn with others would be very effective at this time.
On Dec 21, 2018, the Sun entered Capricorn. This is the Winter Solstice and the official beginning of Winter. This pattern will be influencing us until the Spring Equinox on Mar 20, 2019. The theme of the Winter is to step back and look at the big picture while working with others in shared interchanges. The Sabian Symbol for the Moon is “A large archaic volume”. This is about looking at ancient beliefs and patterns and evaluating their effectiveness and relevance for today, then proceeding to change or release patterns that no longer work. It warns about the dangers getting caught in traditional patterns and viewing them as rules failing to understand their purpose in the past and how that may fit or not fit in today’s world.
The Retrograde Diary:
Introductory Contact for Jupiter, Pluto: Turning Forward of Uranus: Final Resolution of 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.}
Jupiter {Jan 12, 2019 [Apr 11 – !Jun 10! – Aug 11] Nov 5} 14 – 24 Sagittarius
Jan. 16 – 22: (15-16 Sag) Introductory: Are you able to become aware of the give and take of life with you being responsible to act on your own behalf to meet your needs as you release what you no longer need to meet the needs of others, learning to stop getting caught up in a cycle of dependence where you perceive yourself as powerless and unable to meet your needs, feeling that you must be subservient to those who have what you need

Dec. 6, 2018 – Feb. 6, 2019: (29-28 Ari) Turning Forward: The Challenge is to experience the wonder of who you are as a part of all that is and humbly open to the love and affirmation of the divine, learning to stop blocking off awareness of your connection with everything around you that comes from operating out of personal insecurity and fear

Dec. 27, 2018 – Feb. 3, 2019: (14-15 Pis) Resolution: Remember to rehearse and prepare for possible future difficulties and attacks being on your guard with a strong sense of your strength and authority while being relaxed at the same time, learning to prepare for possible future problems but not constantly worry about them, being fearful and overreacting and losing touch with the joy of life
