The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry*

Today, Sunday (04/30/2023), the strongest vibrational influence comes from the Sun and Mercury joining with Uranus (0*). There is not a dominant vibration today. Instead there are three vibrational patterns that are weak and about the same strength. You will likely find yourself expressing the one that resonates most strongly with your vibrations. The strongest is Sun, Mercury, Uranus which is bringing sudden unexpected experiences in interaction with others. There are quick movements and quick thought patterns and potential insights. You need to monitor your awareness as this can sometimes bring accidents. The second and third are related. They are very aware of your community and they are seeking to expand the community and make it work better for everyone involved. This pattern involves Mars and Saturn interacting with Mercury and Venus. There is a willingness here to do what needs to be done to accomplish your goals. This involves analyzing what is really fundamental, studying ideas that are relevant to your concerns and seeking to communicate in an involved participatory manner. There is potential here for expressing your thoughts andideas in beautiful ways either when speaking or when writing. (For VA Students: 1, 2 || 27|| 27)

The AstroFrequency(s) for the day (strongest listed first)
27 (0*) Deep Need to bring peace and healing for the problems in your community
32 (0*) Action plans formulated within yourself and then acted upon at the right moment

The Sabian Symbols of our Featured Planets: Sun, Mercury, Uranus >>> The uplifting message from the featured planet positions that shows the way through: You are opening to a nourishing mist of water bringing the blessings of the divine to you right now, being receptive to its loving care. You are facing the issues and burdens you carry within you; working through them piece by piece.  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 focusing on what you lack which keeps the blessings you could receive from flowing into you. You are experiencing the totality of all of your baggage at once, feeling overburdened and unable to cope with the weight of it all. You are reacting in fear and rejecting the new pattern rising up within you.

11 Taurus = Sun [A woman sprinkling flowers]  You are opening to a nourishing mist of water bringing the blessings of the divine to you right now, being receptive to its loving care and/or you are focusing on what you lack which keeps the blessings you could receive from flowing into you

13 Taurus = Mercury [A man handling baggage]  You are facing the issues and burdens you carry within you; working through them piece by piece and/or you are experiencing the totality of all of your baggage at once, feeling overburdened and unable to cope with the weight of it all

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

Apr 27 – May 1 (exact Apr 29) Mars in Cancer is sharing freely (sextile) with Uranus in Taurus. This vibe is decreasing fading out around 5 PM on May 1. This vibration brings the opportunity to interact spontaneously in the moment with your friends. There is the potential for quick thought patterns and resulting insights into whatever area you are focused on. Keep a notebook handy to write down thoughts and inspirations you may experience as they will tend to fade away like dreams if you don’t write them down.

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 11:41PM yesterday, peaking at 1:41 AM, the Moon in Virgo is opposing Saturn in Pisces. In this 4 hr period you are dealing with that which is especially significant or fundamental in your relationships with others. This is especially about evaluating whether your interactions are working to build your life in a way that supports and leads to your long-term goals. You can see clearly now what you need to change to accomplish your goals.

Starting at 8:59AM, peaking at 10:59 AM, the Moon in Virgo is flowing freely (trine) with the Sun in Taurus. In this 4 hr period your mood and emotional feelings are likely to be balanced and soft and you are just more likely to feel in harmony with yourself. This is a good time to engage in projects you need to do.

Starting at 1:05 PM, peaking at 3:05 PM, the Moon in Virgo is flowing freely (trine) with Mercury in Taurus. This 4 hr period brings a good interaction between your mind and emotions helping you to both think and feel clearly. This is a good time to be working on important projects.

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 April 27 the First Quarter Moon occurred with the Sun in Taurus and the Moon in Leo. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the Full Moon on May 5. This energy concentration focuses on seeking to reach deep into the fundamental spiritual truths that underlie this world we live in and to understand ourselves and our world better because of these deep connections. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A Sleigh without Snow” which tunes into the unfolding of future possibilities and works on developing the skills and tools needed to meet future situations. The Moon Symbol is “A Bolshevic Propagandist”. This involves tearing down the status quo in order to make space for changes that can improve people’s lives. The challenge is to learn to let go and reach out to embrace new possibilities.

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: DEGREE CHANGES TODAY: Mercury >> 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 “!”}
