The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry
Mercury turns direct at 3:56 PM EST, today, December 15
At 4:01 AM EST today, December 15, the Full Moon occurs with the Moon in Gemini and the Sun in Sagittarius.
Today, Sunday (12/15/2024), the strongest vibrational influence comes from the Mercury joining with Saturn and Neptune (1*). This vibrational energy pattern is about recognizing that each of us has a true essence within us that we can learn to tap into. In this vibration you are not only tapping into this in yourself, you are helping other people to attune to their true essence and release or clear out that which is blocking them. This is about a spiritual seeking for the true essence within you with an on-going process of analysis of what you are finding within you or helping others with. (For VA Students: 26)
This vibrational energy pattern is better and more effectively implemented by connecting in together in networks and being involved in the networks that have already been formed. This is about workign with others as equals where each takes his or her part of the responsibility and being open and flexible recognizing that sometimes you need to change to a different mode of operation.
The AstroFrequency(s) for the day (strongest listed first)
19 (1*) Internal Pattern recognition and analysis of conceptual frameworks which may be shared with others
26 (1*) Moves Beyond Average or Mediocre in interactions with others
The Sabian Symbols of our Featured Planets: Mercury, Saturn, Neptune >>>
The uplifting message from the featured planet positions that shows the way through: You are having the opportunity to see the beauty and mystery of this expanded realm and starting to really open your heart to it. You are radiating grace, beauty, and intelligence as you open up to and become a channel for the feminine divine essence within you experiencing a deep awareness that contains an expanded sense of love for, and respect of all of the manifestations of life. You are experiencing a sense of fullness, completion and wholeness as you tune into the fertile potency within you that enables you to manifest anything you truly desire.
The more dysfunctional expression of this message: You are maintaining your barriers and defenses for fear of pain or rejecting any sense of connection for fear of losing your independence or being too shy and insecure to take the initiative to personally take action. You are getting caught up in the superficial trappings of elegance without developing a truly elegant internal awareness. You are being caught up in pride and possessiveness, jealously trying to protect all that is yours and failing.

28 Pisces = Neptune [A fertile garden under the full moon] You are experiencing a sense of fullness, completion and wholeness as you tune into the fertile potency within you that enables you to manifest anything you truly desire and/or you are being caught up in pride and possessiveness, jealously trying to protect all that is yours and failing
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}
Dec 13 – Dec 16 (not Exact) Mercury in Sagittarius is flowing freely (trine) with Mars in Leo. This energy does not become exact since Mercury goes direct on Dec. 15 and then pulls away from Mars which is moving retrograde. This vibrational energy pattern is putting energy into mental activities and this is an opportunity to study and learn something you are interested in. There is some potential for the mind to be over-stimulated and move into anger.
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.}
At 4:01 AM, the Moon in Gemini is opposing the Sun in Sagittarius.
This is the Full Moon. See the Cyclic Patterns Diary.
Starting at 7:32 AM, peaking at 9:32 AM, the Moon in Gemini is acting and agitating (square) with Neptune in Pisces. This 4 hr period highlights your dreams and is a great time to do anything that is especially magical for you, like visiting some special place that you love to go to. There may be some feelings of disconnection from the everyday world and perhaps a sense of fuzziness or vagueness. It will pass as the Moon moves beyond Neptune.
At 2:21 PM the Moon enters Cancer, staying for 2 ½ days and shifting your emotional focus to close interactions with those that you consider to be family and to expanding your family group. You want to have harmonious interactions with those you love.
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 4:01 AM EST on December 15, the Full Moon occurs with the Moon in Gemini and the Sun in Sagittarius. This pattern will be influencing us until the next New Moon on December 30, 2024. This vibrational energy pattern brings an inclination to see the past as beautiful and as the guide to living today. There is a feeling of devotion to the mother and a valuing of things with a long history seeing them as beautiful. There is the potential here to work with the world around you exploring and interacting seeking to rearrange things in better patterns. There may also be a desire to shift the world around you into a more spiritual way of operating where the value of each person is honored. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A Bluebird standing at the Door of the House” which is about celebrating your new land and feeling at home and comfortable as you are affirming and accepting the blessings and happiness offered. Focus on gratitude for what you have rather than looking for some other place that is better and failing to see the blessings and happiness right at your door. The Moon Symbol is “Children skating on Ice”. This is about putting into practice the skills that you’ve developed, maneuvering cheerfully and flexibly through difficult and demanding environments, learning to watch for signs of possible danger. Be aware that it is possible for everything to collapse at any time. There is a caution here to not recklessly rush into situations without evaluating them to determine how safe they are.
On December 1, the New Moon occurred with the Moon and Sun in Sagittarius. This pattern will be influencing us until the next New Moon on December 30, 2024. This vibrational energy pattern is expansive and helps you to be aware of the big picture. This is a time for carefully formulating long term plans that will be a true expression of who you are. These plans can be implemented at the proper time. The Sabian Symbol for the New Moon is “A Golden-Haired Goddess of Opportunity” which indicates that the fantastic opportunities that you are perceiving need to be carefully evaluated and responded to appropriately. There is a potential here for opening the door to fulfillment, experiencing great success, and making opportunities available to others as well as yourself. If you do not evaluate the validity of the opportunities in front of you, you can be easily exploited by others.
On October 2, the New Moon Solar Eclipse occurred with the Sun and Moon in Libra. This pattern will be influencing us until the next New Moon Solar Eclipse on March 29, 2025. This vibrational energy pattern shows a strong need for the freedom to express yourself as you feel inside. This involves the development of your own unique pattern of expression being within your culture but free to operate as who you truly are with the awarenesses you have developed. If this is blocked there is likely to be a strong sense of dissatisfaction where you join with others and reach out seeking to find another more satisfactory place. The Sabian Symbol for the Solar Eclipse is “A Professor peering over his Glasses” which encourages you to move beyond your normal mode of perception to perceive a more comprehensive reality where others are viewed kindly, seriously and with respect.. The challenge is to not get caught up in a superior position that distorts your perception and leads to you seeing others as inferior to you where they need to be bossed around for their own good.
On September 22, the Fall Equinox occurred as the Sun entered Libra. This pattern will be influencing us until the Winter Solstice on December 21, 2024. This vibrational energy pattern brings a strong need to live life in a harmonious flow. This is a visceral need which you will seek to meet in the way you deal with the people around you. If you feel you are trapped in a situation that is not flowing for you there is the potential for violence. You are likely to be especially sensitive, impulsive and driven during this time period. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun Moon interaction is “A Muse weighing Twins”. This relates to weighing and evaluating the rational and irrational levels within you and realizing that they are reflections of each other. This is an opportunity to begin to understand that you need to learn to establish a balance between them based on a higher more expansive level of awareness within you that transcends both of them.
On September 17, 2024, a Full Moon Lunar Eclipse occurred with the Moon in Pisces and the Sun in Virgo. This pattern will be influencing us until the next Full Moon Lunar Eclipse on March 14, 2025. This vibrational energy pattern brings a focus on dreams and ideals that last past death. This is about tuning into the long term patterns of unfolding evolving awareness that transcend the resistance of the moment. There is a major focus in this eclipse on evaluation of your motives and drives to be sure you are getting the result you want. There is also a balancing of your individual view of life against what works for everyone else. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A Boy with a Censer” which involves learning how to expand your awareness and accept responsibility for both yourself and your interactions with others by modeling yourself after those who are more spiritually experienced and developed. The Moon Symbol is “A New Moon that divides its Influences” which involves learning how to operate effectively in both the spiritual and the earthly realms based on a new vision and finding your unique way to respond to that vision. If you do not realize that everyone is connected you may start feeling alone and isolated.
The Retrograde Diary: NO DEGREE CHANGES TODAY: Mercury turns direct at 3:56 PM today, December 15 >> Reworking of Mars, Jupiter, Uranus: Turning Forward of Mercury, Neptune: Resolution of 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 “!!!”}
