The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry*
Yesterday and today, Sunday (07/30/2023), the strongest vibrational influence comes from Venus joining with Uranus and Pluto (1*). The strongest vibrational energy today is involved with recognizing the patterns you encounter in the world around and within yourself. What type of patterns are you perceiving? What are they composed of? What is really strong and effective in this pattern? What is weak in this pattern? Is there the freedom to respond spontaneously to what you encounter? The pattern work today brings a sense of excitement and sudden revelation where you get a clearer recognition of the patterns you are expressing and dealing with and how you need to modify your current patterns in order to be more effective.

The Sabian Symbols of our Featured Planets: Venus, Uranus, Pluto >>>
The uplifting message from the featured planet positions that shows the way through:
You are starting to form relationships that are based on exchanges of love and affirmation, recognizing the worth of each person. You are dimly sensing that you’re one of the jewels, a part of the divine awareness, beginning to sense the highest in you as a distant potential. You are beginning to read, with great clarity, the hidden level of reality, putting aside your skepticism, opening to your intuitive awareness, taking responsibility for your impact on everything around you.
The more dysfunctional expression of this message:
You are interacting with others superficially based on seeking to gain prominence, power and prestige. You are denying the light and beauty hidden within you and only seeing the more superficial trash and garbage heap within which your true worth is buried. You are superstitiously depending on signs around you and blindly following these signs, not taking responsibility for your life or your decisions.

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}

This vibration is about a flow of big actions. There is the potential here for doing something really significant.

Starting at 7:51 PM, peaking at 9:51 PM, the Moon in Capricorn is flowing freely (trine) with Jupiter in Taurus. In this 4 hr period there is a sense of emotional openness and expansion within you. This can feel either good or bad depending on what your general feeling at the time is.
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 July 25, the First Quarter Moon occurred with the Moon in Scorpio and the Sun in Leo. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the Full Moon on August 1. This vibrational pattern for the next week is very intense and likely will involve a lot of emotional distress. There is a need to evaluate our passions and make adjustments based on reevaluating what we are doing and how clearly we are thinking. There is a need to focus on others in our community who may have something to teach us, There is also a growing awareness of how our communities fail those within them and a sense of the importance of doing something to change this. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A Woman having her Hair Bobbed” which is about finding appropriate expressions of you sense of self as you cut back on dramatic ego displays. The Symbol for the Moon is “A House-Raising. This is about the whole community gathering together to assist individual community members to meet needs where they do not have the resources to meet these needs by themselves.
On July 17 the New Moon occurred with the Sun and Moon in Cancer. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the next New Moon on August 16. This vibrational pattern is emotionally intense and visionary. There are likely to be a lot of passions stirred up. There is also a potential for sudden moves that can bring harmony in unexpected ways. In situations with uncertain outcomes, you need to research as much as you can and then take the risks to follow your intuitions. The Sabian Symbol for the New Moon is “ A Dark Shadow or Mantle thrown suddenly over the Right Shoulder”. This is about opening to a connection that overshadows you, a greater authority that is calling on you to transcend ego and logical rationalization, open to spiritual power and learn to assume responsibility for using the power that has been given to you wisely and with humility. There is the temptation here to claim this power as your own rather than something you are connecting into, in which case you are in danger of abusing your power from a sense of personal superiority.
On June 21, the Summer Solstice occurred as the Sun entered Cancer. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the Fall Equinox on September 21. This is the longest day of the year and the shortest night. This vibrational pattern is dominated by the Sun Quincunx Pluto which shows that this is a time when each person must face and claim their own power and stand tall in it. There is an emphasis on working in support of your community this summer in very creative ways along with the potential for expansion through sudden insights and personal breakthroughs. The Sabian symbol for the Sun-Moon relationship is “A Christmas Tree decorated” which is like bringing the Winter Solstice into operation in the middle of Summer. This is about the light being reborn in the darkness within each of us.
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 your connection within yourself 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 you 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.
The Retrograde Diary: NO DEGREE CHANGES TODAY >> Introductory phase of Jupiter, Uranus: Turning Backward of Neptune: Reworking of Venus, 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 “!”}
