The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry*

Today, Saturday (05/06/2023), the strongest vibrational influence comes from Mars joining with Jupiter and Uranus (1*). Like yesterday this vibrational pattern is interacting with the stories of those around you. You may be inspired or guided by the stories you get involved in. There is a potential for you taking big, spontaneous actions that address the concerns you are learning about in other people’s stories. You may find yourself imagining what it would be like if you had to deal with the things that you are learning about from others. There is in this energy the potential to see and understand some new things about yourself and others through these experiences. (For VA Students: 17)

The AstroFrequency(s) for the day (strongest listed first)

17 (2*) Interest in other’s stories that inclines to many possible outcomes, such as involvement in theater, literature, counseling or personal performance.

The Sabian Symbols of our Featured Planets: Mars, Jupiter, Uranus >>> The uplifting message from the featured planet positions that shows the way through: You are connecting with others in a respectful harmonious exchange of ideas, engaging in rigorous reevaluation of everything in a search for greater meaning. You are being confronted with the results of your lack of awareness, personal preoccupation and blindness that have disappointed and hurt others and yourself, facing your failings and engaging in the self-evaluation that will enable you to grow and change.  You are feeling a sense of yourself as a newly formed being in your own right. The more dysfunctional expression of this message: You are being sure you have the true and final answer, refusing to listen to other people’s ideas, holding rigidly to your interpretation of everything. You are holding onto old ego patterns, only seeing your viewpoint; becoming angry with others for not going along with your personal preoccupations and agenda.  You are reacting in fear and rejecting the new pattern rising up within you.

23 Cancer = Mars [Meeting of a literary society] You are connecting with others in a respectful harmonious exchange of ideas, engaging in rigorous reevaluation of everything in a search for greater meaning and/or you are being sure you have the true and final answer, refusing to listen to other people’s ideas, holding rigidly to your interpretation of everything

28 Aries = Jupiter [A large disappointed audience] You are being confronted with the results of your lack of awareness, personal preoccupation and blindness that have disappointed and hurt others and yourself, facing your failings and engaging in the self-evaluation that will enable you to grow and change and/or you are holding onto old ego patterns, only seeing your viewpoint; becoming angry with others for not going along with your personal preoccupations and agenda

19 Taurus = Uranus [A newly formed continent] You are feeling a sense of yourself as a newly formed being in your own right and/or you are reacting in fear and rejecting the new pattern rising up within you

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 arelisted here, followed by a section on the Moods of the Moon}

May 3 – May 6 (exact May 5) Venus in Gemini is sharing freely (sextile) with Jupiter in Aries. This vibe is decreasing fading out around 4 AM. This vibration brings an attunement to rich elegant beauty. There may be the opportunity here to increase the beauty in your life and/or in the world.

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 11:50 PM yesterday, peaking at 1:50 AM early May 6, the Moon in Scorpio is flowing freely (trine) with Mars in Cancer. This 4 hr period is probably going to have your emotions and moods whooped up a bit, you will tend to focus on something you want to do and really get on with it.  You may get upset if someone interferes at this time, you won’t want to be interrupted or blocked.

Starting at 8:37 AM, peaking at 10:37 AM, the Moon in Scorpio is flowing freely (trine) with Neptune in Pisces. This 4 hr period takes you into your dreams, they are living inside you and you are feeling them. You may find yourself daydreaming more than usual. You can use this time to get deeply in touch with your dreams and draw inspiration from them to help you make them more real.

At 4:04 PM, the Moon enters Sagittarius.  The Moon in Sagittarius brings exuberant feelings and a desire to explore your external world and your internal world.  This 2 ½ days is a great time to explore someplace you have never been or to learn something new that you have been wondering about.

Starting at 2:41 PM, peaking at 4:41 PM, the Moon in Sagittarius is sharing freely (sextile) with Pluto in Aquarius. In this 4 hr period there is an easier connection into deeply buried feelings than at other times. There is an opportunity here to share these deep levels with your friends and to be open to them sharing their deep feelings with you. This exchange can sometimes have a healing quality and reduce the pain within you and your friends.

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 May 5, the Full Moon Lunar Eclipse occurred with the Moon in Scorpio opposing the Sun in Taurus. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the next Lunar Eclipse on October 28. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the next Lunar Eclipse on October 28. This vibrational pattern is expansive and seeking to understand the different ways people can understand the world. This is often done by participating in a culture that is different from your culture of origin.  There is a strong need for the freedom to express yourself and to act on your feelings. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A Bridge being built across a Gorge” which helps you connect to the next more expansive level of awareness beyond where you currently are operating. The Moon Symbol is “A Gold Rush”. This helps you find and identify the rigid patterns within you that are keeping you from connecting into the gold of your true self. You can break up these rigid structures and open up to a deeper truer understanding of yourself.

On April 20 the New Moon a Solar Eclipse occurred with the Sun and the Moon in Aries. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the next Solar Eclipse on October 14. This eclipse in Aries emphasizes our connection with ourselves and encourages you to find a way to do what you feel called to do deep within you. There is a focus on interacting with the world and exploring whatever we are drawn to. This process can be very creative. And with this vibration it leads to taking actions based on your discoveries. The Sabian Symbol for this eclipse is “A Duck Pond and its Brood”. This is about recognizing that you are operating within a bounded,limited sphere of activity where you are inter-linked with a particular group of people. It is important to realize that you are interconnected with people in a larger realm and to realize that you need to take into account this larger realm rather than just focusing on the needs of your group.

On March 20 the Spring Equinox occurred as the Sun enters Aries. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the Summer Solstice on June 21. This is the balancing point of the year when the days and nights are of equal length. This year’s Spring Equinox brings a strong feeling of needing to have your ideas be exceprtional and amazing. The vibration for Spring is deeply involved in sharing other people’s stories and there is a tendency to act based on the things you have learned from others to seek to make the lives of those around you better. The Sabian Symbol for the distance from the Sun to the Moon is “A master instructing his pupil. This is about participating in the transfer of higher knowledge and wisdom, being open to receiving deep insights from unexpected places. This energy becomes distorted if you claim a superior status and special privileges based on your position. This is about recognizing the worth and authority of each person.

The Retrograde Diary: NO DEGREE CHANGES TODAY >> Introductory phase of Saturn, Neptune: Turning Backward of Pluto: Reworking of Mercury: Resolution of Uranus {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 “!”}
