The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry*

Yesterday and today, Sunday (02/19/2023), the strongest vibrational influence comes from Saturn joining with Uranus and Neptune (1*). Today’s vibration is a continuation of yesterday’s. There is a strong need to follow your own spiritual path seeking to sort truth from illusions. This is about opening up to your own sense of the world and life and testing what you think to figure out the long-term consequences. This vibration then calls you to pursue the greatest most embracing sense of truth you can find and to lovingly release the rest. There is a potential creative flow in this vibration that may bring you some insights into the spiritual patterns you are seeking to discover. There is a sense of some fundamental underlying truth or sudden revelations that you may have that can show you how beautiful, even amazing this other way of thinking is. The challenge is to open up to the awareness that isthere. (For VA Students: 14, 28)

The AstroFrequency(s) for the day (strongest listed first)
14 (1*) Quiet, Inner Focus, Abstract thinking shared with others
23 (1*) Follows One’s Personal Intuition; Takes Risks

The Sabian Symbols of our Featured Planets: Saturn, Uranus, Neptune >>> The uplifting message from the featured planet positions that shows the way through: You are operating in a rational, evaluative way that is balanced with intuitive awareness, experiencing a natural balance that enables you to respond appropriately in each situation. You are starting to work on the issues within you that are keeping you from making connections into the greater mysteries. You are transforming your active assertive impulses, placing them at the service of a greater awareness, taking care to keep your emotions in balance, being guided by your intuitive awareness. You are getting rid of all that is not truly part of your essence as a deeply spiritually aligned and complete person, while recognizing the truth of other people, seeing who and what they are in the essence of their beings. You are learning to work in cooperation with others to order and organize the wilderness with the inherent wildness and chaos of life being tamed, or hidden and buried, creating an ordered natural space that everyone can safely share. The more dysfunctional expression of this message: You are being obsessed with work, constantly seeking to further your own ends, focusing on being in charge and in control of everything around you. You are feeling trapped, powerless and impotent, unable to even consider that you might be able to make a change in the way you function. You are being lopsided and out of balance with your emotions overwhelming your rational responses and your intuitive awareness being ignored. You are refusing to look at distortions in your values and motives, clinging to rigid positions, deceiving, lying, and misleading those around you and being rejected. You are remaining in isolation and being overwhelmed by the wildness within and around you.

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

Feb 18 – Feb 20 (exact Feb 19) Venus in Pisces is sharing freely (sextile) with Pluto in Capricorn. This vibe is increasing in influence until it peaks at 12:04 PM, then decreasing and fading out around 8 AM on Feb. 20. This vibration is working on deep levels of attraction and passion within you and helping you sort out what is constructive and what is based on old dysfunctional patterns within you. Watch for strong reactions these two days and check if you are responding to the present or being triggered by old patterns within you. You may find yourself extremely attracted to someone or something during this time period or you may find someone else extremely attracted to you. Be aware that however strong this may feel, it is most likely a passing fancy and deal with it accordingly. This vibration brings an intense feeling of attraction to sharing with others in beautiful ways. This gives the potential for some really special exchanges with others.

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 10:41 PM yesterday, peaking at 12:41 AM, the Moon in Aquarius is acting and agitating (square) with Uranus in Taurus. In this 4 hr period your emotions could be scattered all over the place with you feeling one thing one moment and another the next and you have the energy and desire to act on each of these things as it spontaneously surfaces. It is good to have a little bit of you watching this process and every once in a while saying, “I better wait on that one.”

Starting at 11:01 PM yesterday, peaking at 1:01 AM, the Moon in Aquarius is flowing freely (trine) with Mars in Gemini. 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 7:00 PM, peaking at 9:00 PM, the Moon in Aquarius is joining with Saturn in Aquarius. This 4 hr period calls for an evaluation of your emotional patterns to see whether you are reacting emotionally to things that do not really matter where you will not remember what upset you in an hour or a day. It is about learning to let go of emotional feelings that are not about significant long-term issues.

At 11:56 PM, the Moon enters Pisces,bringing a sense of the connections we all have with each other and with everything around us.A Pisces moon is very good at connecting things together that don’t look like they belong together, so use this 2 ½ days to reach out and connect with those that you thought you could never establish a relationship with, right now it might work.

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 11:01 AM EST on February 13, the Third Quarter Moon occurs with the Moon in Scorpio acting and agitating (square) with the Sun in Aquarius. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the New Moon on February 20. This vibrational energy brings an intense need to expand and grow. There is a deep sense of restless dissatisfaction that is pushing you based on a view of the big picture that challenges you to use your mind to find ways to get involved in a hands on way seeking to bring about changes that will bring a deeper meaning and greater significance to your life. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A butterfly with the right wing more perfectly formed”. This is an opportunity to transform your active assertive impulses, placing them at the service of a greater awareness, taking care to keep your emotions in balance, being guided by your intuitive awareness. Make sure you are not being lopsided and out of balance with your emotions overwhelming your rational responses and your intuitive awareness being ignored. The Sabian Symbol for the Moon is “An X ray”. This is an opportunity to learn to look deeply below the surface and see the fundamental structures that underlie your current reality. Try not to use subtle manipulations to invade other people’s space to reveal that which is hidden so you can use it failing to understand the true implications of what you are finding.

On February 5, the Full Moon occurred with the Moon in Leo opposing the Sun in Aquarius. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the next New Moon on February 20. This vibrational energy is very focused in the moment. There is the potential for spontaneous impulsive action that can be brilliant or disasterous. Take special care when driving with this pattern. There is a focus in your community and you may find yourself more involved in your community than you have been. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A watchdog standing guard”. This is an opportunity to recognize the importance of being aware and alert at all times so that you can recognize the beliefs, attitudes or persons that may be acting to undermine or damage you while still living in a sense of the beauty of life and of other people. Try not to feel suspicious of everyone and everything around you. You may not realize how your own attitudes, beliefs and behaviors are creating the negative responses you’re getting from others. The Sabian Symbol for the Moon is “A nonvested church choir”. Here there is an opportunity to begin to interact with others in a relaxed and open way, seeking to genuinely express yourself by forming harmonies that are blending your voices together beautifully. Make sure you are not retiring into the background, being afraid to interact because you do not believe in your own worth or being overly critical of others feeling threatened that you will lose your position in the group.

On January 21, the New Moon occurred with the Sun in Aquarius joining with the Moon in Aquarius.This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the next New Moon on February 20.This vibrational energy is related to being aware of how you are being affected by other people’s actions. It is important to tune into what others can tell you about their lives and you are going to act differently because of what you learn from others. You may feel a need to join together and seek a bettern answer for both of you. There is unusual opportunities for effective communication with this vibrational energy. The Sabian Symbol for the New Moon is “An unexpected thunderstorm”. This symbol is about experiencing sudden unexpected awarenesses, crashing into your mind sharply, illuminating the hidden realms within the current reality. Try not to lose control and explode emotionally without warning, lashing out with the backlog of emotions that you have bottled up inside yourself.

On December 21, the Winter Solstice occurred as the Sun enters Capricorn. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the Spring Equinox on March 20. This vibrational energy brings a sense of spontaneous joy on the surface. On a deeper level there is an awareness of the importance of community and concern for the places where community fails and people fall through the cracks. There seems to be a strong emphasis, this season, on finding ways to more effectively respond to those among us who are not being supported by community in a good way. The Sabian Symbol for the Winter Solstice is “A jockey”. It comes from the relationship of the Sun to the Moon and it means you are learning how to pace yourself and evaluate your situation then move forward quickly when the time is right, recognizing that the process is more important than the outcome. Try not to rush ahead without thought, getting carried away; seeking to win at all costs and finding that you run out of steam before you have completed your work.

On November 8, the Full Moon Lunar Eclipse occurred with the Sun in Scorpio opposite the Moon in Taurus. This is the end of this eclipse season and this vibrational pattern will be influencing us until the next Eclipse Season starts on April 20, 2023. This vibrational energy is seeking to get to the true or fundamental essence helping each person discover the unique essence within them and realize how amazing and beautiful it is. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A woman the father of her own child”. This symbol is about giving birth to yourself as a conscious spiritual being connected in with the greater reality around you. The challenge is not to move into feelings of being alone and abandoned which may force you into an unwanted independence without support. The Moon Symbol is “A battle between the swords and the torches”. This might lead you into engaging in a battle between the forces of light, awareness & love and the forces of domination & control with the light shining in and revealing the strongly held distortions that must be defeated. It is important to claim your power and not surrender to the domination and control of others.

On October 25 the New Moon Solar Eclipse occurred with the Sun and Moon in Scorpio. This is the start of this eclipse season and this vibrational pattern will be influencing us until the next Eclipse Season starts on April 20, 2023. This vibrational energy brings a sense of the importance of listening to the stories of others. There is a drive towards expanded action seeking to respond to the stories and the needs you encounter in the people around you. This involves a sense of reaching for the fundamental beauty in others that you can see more clearly at this time. The Sabian Symbol for the eclipse is “A house-raising”. This symbol is about being involved in building a new structure for yourself with the entire community generously gathering and harmoniously participating in the process according to their skills and abilities. This is a reminder that others help make our lives work right. Take care not to refuse the help of others because of a lack of trust or an excessive sense of independence related to fear of being controlled. Also be aware that you may have a belief that you do not deserve help or do not have the right to ask for help. This is your own issues. We all need help at times.

The Retrograde Diary: NO DEGREE CHANGES TODAY >> Introductory Period for Pluto: Resolution of Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune {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 “!”}
