The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry*
At 6:10 AM EDT the First Quarter Moon Phase peaks with the Sun in Cancer and the Moon in Libra.
Today, Saturday (7/17/2021), the strongest vibrational influence comes from the Sun joining with Jupiter and Pluto (1*). This vibration involves exploring and interacting with the world around you. There is an organic flavor to this interaction as you respond to whatever around you attracts you with no particular logical reason for your interests. This non-linear process can bring things that seem totally unrelated to each other into contact and this can result in finding new perspectives and new ways of looking at things that can be very beneficial. The energy here is focused on expansion, in fact there is an intense need to expand today that is quite compulsive. The extreme strength of this pattern comes from this being the day that Sun and Pluto are exactly opposite each other. This is one of two days in the year when Sun and Pluto are directly impacting each other. Here in the opposition there is a special emphasis on our interactions with others and the ways that we may feel compelled to act without really examining what is going on.

The Sabian Symbols of our Featured Planets: Sun, Jupiter, Pluto
The uplifting message from the featured planet positions that shows the way through: You are retreating to a place of quiet and reflection where you can open up to and explore the new awarenesses and connections within yourself, gaining insight from the books and people available to you in this retreat setting. You are sensing that there are difficult patterns within you that you do not know how to handle, protecting yourself from these patterns while you develop the strength and support system needed to face these potentially destructive patterns. You are experiencing an exceptional level of sensitiveness to subtle energies as you spontaneously open to delight and wonder, allowing you to make better contact with both the spiritual and elemental realms. The most dysfunctional expression of this message: You are feeling repressed and inhibited by the expectations within and around you, not sharing yourself authentically, and feeling left out and isolated. You are being so threatened by the issues within you that you feel unable to function frozen in the dark unwilling to accept any help or support. You are being so lighthearted and irresponsible that you don’t take anything seriously or being so bogged down in work that you don’t get any form of release.

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}
Jul 16 – Jul 18 (exact Jul 17) the Sun in Cancer is opposing Pluto in Capricorn. This vibe is increasing in influence until it peaks at 6:46 PM then decreasing fading out around 6 PM on July 18. This vibration is the peak of the Pluto Retrograde period and brings a great deal of intensity to the energy flow at this time. It may bring some personal experiences of great depth and strength.
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 11:04 PM yesterday, peaking at 1:04 AM early July 17, the Moon in Libra is sharing freely (sextile) with Mars in Leo. This 4 hr period is about sharing with others in an energetic way, doing things together like sports or exercise. This is a great time to engage in a joint physical project.
Starting at 3:04 AM, peaking at 5:04 AM, the Moon in Libra is sharing freely (sextile) with Venus in Leo. This 4 hr period brings feelings of intimacy and closeness and especially a valuing of long held relationships. This is a time for soul connections.
At 6:10 AM, the Moon in Libra is acting and agitating (square) with the Sun in Cancer. This is the First Quarter Moon. See the Cyclic Patterns Diary.
Starting at 5:03 AM, peaking at 7:03 AM, the Moon in Libra is acting and agitating (square) with Pluto in Capricorn. This 4 hr period takes you deep into old patterns and you may find yourself acting in ways that you feel compelled to act, but don’t understand.
At 2:38 PM the Moon enters Scorpio For the next 2 ½ days the Moon in Scorpio can tend to get very emotionally intense. The desire is to merge with the people you are involved with and with the projects you are working on. This can be uncomfortable for those not used to it as you can feel like you are being swallowed up. If it gets too much, just step back for a couple of minutes and take a breath, or even take a walk around the block to help you temporarily disconnect.
Starting at 2:23 PM, peaking at 4:23 PM, the Moon in Scorpio is flowing freely (trine) with Jupiter in Pisces. This 4 hr period is expansive and optimistic. This is a great time to spend socially, meeting new people.
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 6:10 AM EDT the First Quarter Moon Phase peaks with the Sun in Cancer and the Moon in Libra. This vibration will be influencing us for the next week until the Full Moon on July 23. This vibration brings a great deal of intensity. Whatever you have been committed to you are likely to increase your emphasis on it. This is combined with a lot of exploration and interaction with the world around you which could lead to seeing things from a new perspective and perhaps coming up with new solutions to old problems. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “Contentment and happiness in luxury, people reading on davenports”. This points to the need to retreat to a place of quiet and reflect on where and how you can open up and explore the new awarenesses and connections within yourself. This is a time to connect into your authentic self and not have the influences and expectations of others repress you or inhibit you. The Moon Symbol is “An Eagle and a large white Dove turning one into the other”. This refers to you leaning to balance power and love using each to temper the other. This can enable you to develop a deeply grounded connection that is open to both the emotional and spiritual realms.
On July 9 the New Moon occurred with the Sun and Moon in Cancer. This vibration will be influencing us until the next New Moon on August 8. This vibration is very intense. There are intense emotional feelings that you are likely to connect into at this time and share with others. This is combined with making connections into the natural world and seeing the light of the divine shining through everything around you. The Sabian Symbol for the New Moon is “A Priest performing a Marriage Ceremony” which relates to us each having a buried other within us. We need to connect in with that other and make it a part of our essence, Put in other words we need to marry it. This enables us to form a wholeness within which includes both the mind and the emotions. The challenge in this symbol is to be willing to connect into ourselves deeply.
On June 20, the Summer Solstice occurred as the Sun enters the sign of Cancer. This vibration will be influencing us until the Fall Equinox on September 22. There is potential for expansion and growth this summer. The summer energy contains a sense of moderation involving acting in a considerate harmonious way but there will likely be some change, some action to open up to new patterns and ways of operating. A strong Sabian Symbol for the summer is “A Fellowship Supper” which refers to reaching out to others, sharing companionably with them, forming, and renewing feelings of fellowship and bonding, breaking through feelings of alienation all for the purpose of healing your lines of connection. If you refuse to reconnect with others out of fears of facing and dealing with past issues and old secrets, you may have a sense of having lost some important part of yourself.
On June 10 a New Moon Solar Eclipse occurred with the Sun and Moon in Gemini. This finishes the Eclipse Season and these patterns will be influencing us until the start of the next Eclipse Season on November 19. This Solar Eclipse is especially working on our mental patterns. It brings a focus on the mind and how your dreams and visions of life are being reflected in your experience. It is about exploring the world and interacting with what is around you in playful and creative ways. There is the potential here for discovering new relationships and connections with the people and the environment around you. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun and Moon is “A Cafeteria” which focuses on the abundance of choices available to you in your world and your opportunity to select which of these choices is right for you, which will nourish you and your life. When you know what is right for you then you need to deliberately select it, pay for it and make it a part of your essence. It is important that you only take what you truly need, leaving the rest for others.
On May 26 a Full Moon Lunar Eclipse occurred with the Sun in Gemini and the Moon in Sagittarius. This vibration will be influencing us until the New Moon Solar Eclipse on June 10. This is the start of the Eclipse Season. This vibration is focused on taking action and doing the things that it is essential for you to do to express yourself authentically. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “Drilling for Oil” which refers to you digging down into the ancient strata looking for that which has been formed deep within you. You recognize the pressure that these old structures generate and seek to release the energy that is bound up in these deep patterns. There is a warning not to scatter your energy in superficial pursuits that will let you avoid the deep work that is called for at this time. The Moon Symbol is “A Game of Cricket”. This refers to the process of learning the rules of interfacing with the physical and spiritual realms and following these rules so you can effectively play the game. It cautions against acting arbitrarily, refusing to play by the rules of the game and that if you do you will likely receive harsh reactions and perhaps be rejected by others.
The Retrograde Diary: DEGREE CHANGES TODAY: Jupiter
Turning Backward of Uranus, Neptune: Reworking of Jupiter, 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 “!”}
