The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry*

At 5:54 PM EDT on September 25, the New Moon occurs with the Sun and Moon in Libra.
Today, Sunday (9/25/2022), the strongest vibrational influence comes from the Moon and Mercury joining with Venus (2*). The strongest vibration today is spread through several vibrations because there is a powerful joining of the Moon, Mercury and Venus with the New Moon. This involves attunement to yourself, interaction with others harmoniously in an interactive, exploratory way with no agenda as you share the motives and drives for your actions. There is a sense of history here and of the beauty of shared patterns and traditions. There is an acknowledgement and, perhaps, understanding of the way our feelings are affected by our past experiences. There is also a beautiful potential to write and communicate in beautiful ways that will really connect with other people. This is a very good day to be writing or communicating with others. (For VA Students: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6)

The AstroFrequency(s) for the day (strongest listed first)
2 (5*) Interactions with others
1 (4*) Doing things your own way, evaluating the ideas of others and only changing if you agree with them
16 (4*) Deep motivations and desires expressed as action
8 (4*) Acting effectively to accomplish your Motivations & Drives

The Sabian Symbols of our Featured Planets: Moon, Mercury, Venus >>> The uplifting message from the featured planet positions that shows the way through: You are realizing that you have to move beyond your current absorption in yourself and let your ego “die”, moving beyond self-interest in order to respond to the needs of others. You are sensitively seizing control by force of will and directing operations, so that the best course of action will be followed, based on concern for everyone involved. The more dysfunctional expression of this message: You are holding tightly to a superficial sense of your self-importance and failing to recognize the impact of your actions on those around you. You are going on a power trip, dominating all those around you, misusing your power.

25 Virgo = Moon merging with Venus [A flag at half-mast] You are realizing that you have to move beyond your current absorption in yourself and let your ego “die”, moving beyond self-interest in order to respond to the needs of others and/or you are holding tightly to a superficial sense of your self-importance and failing to recognize the impact of your actions on those around you

28 Virgo = Moon merging with Mercury [A bald-headed man] You are sensitively seizing control by force of will and directing operations, so that the best course of action will be followed, based on concern for everyone involved and/or you are going on a power trip, dominating all those around you, misusing your power

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}

Sep 25 – Sep 30 (exact Sep 28) Mars in Gemini is flowing freely (trine) with Saturn in Aquarius. This vibe begins to influence us around 5 PM and is increasing in influence until it peaks at 1:48 AM on Sept 28 then decreasing fading out around M on Sept. This vibration makes it easier for you to do the essential work necessary for you to accomplish the critical projects you are involved in. Use this time to get things straightened out and working better.

Sep 25 – Sep 27 (exact Sep 26) the Sun in Libra is opposing Jupiter in Aries. This vibe begins to influence us around 7 PM and is increasing in influence until it peaks at 3:33 PM on Sept 26 then decreasing fading out around 12:30 PM on Sept 27. This vibration brings an expansion in your relationships to others. This is a great time to interact with others and get to know them better. This is good for socializing because you are more open to new connections that normal.

Sep 25 – Sep 26 (exact Sep 26) Venus in Virgo is flowing freely (trine) with Pluto in Capricorn. This vibe begins to influence us around 7 AM and is increasing in influence until it peaks at 1:46 AM on Sept 26 then decreasing fading out around 9 PM on Sept 26. This vibration intensifies your feeling of attraction to that which you find beautiful. The draw could be irresistible. Remember this is not a rational feeling. Also remember that this will only last a couple of days. This often is about relationships and if the relationship is good, this may allow you to enhance it and this will be a blessing. If the relationship is not entirely comfortable, acting now may cause you problems.

Sep 23 – Sep 24 (exact Sep 24) Venus in Virgo is opposing Neptune in Pisces. This vibe is increasing in influence until it peaks at 4:51 AM then decreasing fading out around 11:59 PM on Sept 24. This vibration is about attraction to beauty as an ideal. This can bring very romantic feelings and the desire to express them. It can also bring the potential for making something beautiful and artistic.

Sept. 15 – Oct. 22 (closest position Oct. 4, never exact) Saturn in Aquarius is acting and agitating (square) with Uranus in Taurus. This vibe is a repeat of a strong pattern that we saw in the last year where there is a focus on doing your own thing and not taking into account the ideas or needs of the rest of the world. This is a very independent, sometimes rebellious, pattern that can tend to be disruptive.

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 11:10 PM yesterday, peaking at 1:10 AM early September 25, the Moon in Virgo is opposing Neptune in Pisces. This 4 hr period brings a feeling of dreaminess and vagueness as you are more connected into your dreams than into the everyday realities around you. This is a good time to share your dreams with someone you are close to.

Starting at 1:24 AM, peaking at 3:24 AM, the Moon in Virgo is joining with Venus in Virgo. This 4 hr period should bring some really good feelings and a focus on loving caring relationships with a sense of a universal pattern that you are seeking to express in your lives together

Starting at 3:34 AM, peaking at 5:34 AM, the Moon in Virgo is flowing freely (trine) with Pluto in Capricorn. In this 4 hr period deep feelings within you that you have buried could affect your mood. Be aware that you may be reacting to the past rather than the present. Ask yourself if you have felt this way in the past and when and with whom. Be prepared to walk away from a situation if you get triggered.

Starting at 6:49 AM, peaking at 8:49 AM, the Moon in Virgo is joining with Mercury in Virgo. The emotions and moods and mental patterns are working together. This is a time when you are very effective in doing projects.

At 12:43 PM the Moon enters Libra. The Moon in Libra for the next 2 ½ days will tend to focus on the nature of your interactions with others. The Libran Moon wants to relate to others as equals and to respect others and to be respected by those around you. Encouraging this type of interaction will be beneficial to everyone.

At 5:54 PM, the Moon in Libra is joining with the Sun in Libra. This is the New Moon. See the Cyclic Patterns Diary.

Starting at 5:44 PM, peaking at 7:44 PM, the Moon in Libra is opposing Jupiter in Aries. In this 4 hr period you will be feeling optimistic and expansive and wanting to expand your horizons by having new experiences and getting to know new people This is a really good time to be involved in social interactions with other people.

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 5:54 PM EDT on September 25, the New Moon occurs with the Sun and Moon in Libra. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the next New Moon October 25. This vibrational pattern has some contradictions in it. First it is expansive and seeking to act on its motivations and drives. There is a tendency to act without thinking about how other people are going to be affected by your actions. This is likely to run up against the ideas other people have about how the world works. If you are not naturally inclined to be inclusive, this is a time when you may find you have jumped over the edge of the cliff in your relationships with others. So take extra care about your choices right now and realize there is something self-oriented and irrational pushing you to not take others into account. The Sabian Symbol for the New Moon is “The Dawn of a New Day, Everything Changed”. This symbol is about recognizing a new center of awareness within yourself. You are encouraged to embrace a reorientation that causes everything to be changed. The rules are now different and the reactions of others will be different from what you expect. This is especially true if you do not adjust to the changes that are occurring in you and in those around you. If you find you are feeling fear and anger, stop and evaluate and see what the awareness is that you are blocking.

At 9:04 PM EDT, the Fall Equinox occurs as the Sun enters Libra. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the Winter Solstice on December 21. This Vibrational Pattern involves tuning into yourself and following what is within you rather than seeking to meet external expectations. There is a sense of skepticism about simple pat answers. This comes from a sense of a depth to life with a deep mystery at the very core of life, a mystery that cannot be reduced down to words.. The Sabian Symbol for the Fall Equinox is “An Ancient Pottery Bowl filled with Violets”. This is about basing your pattern on the foundation principles of life. You are encouraged to develop a delicate and beautiful essence that radiates love, peace, beauty and simplicity.

On May 16, the Full Moon Lunar Eclipse occurred with the Moon in Scorpio and the Sun 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 October 25, 2022. This eclipse is especially involved with Saturn seeking to focus on that which is essential and of long-term importance and to let go of passing feelings and actions that will not be remembered at a later time. This vibrational pattern involves deep inner work seeking to find the appropriate actions and includes a sense of not knowing and not being able to know all the answers. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A Spaniard serenading his Senorita” which calls for you to refocus the assertive/aggressive aspect of yourself, discovering the value of love and gentleness, and seeing the beauty within you and in others. The Moon Symbol is “Indians making Camp”. This symbol is about learning to operate in a new realm where you need to learn the rules for functioning in this place so that you respect the rights of everyone involved.

On April 30, the New Moon Solar Eclipse occurred with the Sun and Moon in Taurus. This is the start of this eclipse season and this vibrational pattern will be influencing us until the next Eclipse Season starts on October 25, 2022. This eclipse focuses on devotion to the beauty of the past with a sense of the importance of direct hands on experience seeking to evaluate what really needs to happen to properly honor the past in the present. The importance of actually taking action to make a more direct involved and beautiful world is especially emphasized. The Sabian Symbol for the eclipse is “Deep-Sea Divers” which is about exploring the deepest realms of your being finding the tremendous pressures that are operating within you calling you to open to new awarenesses of your talents and gifts. Take care to keep in touch with the reality of the world around you as you are probing the depths within you.

The Retrograde Diary: DEGREE CHANGES TODAY: Mercury, Mars >> Introductory Period of Mars: Turning back of Uranus: Reworking of Mercury, Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune: Turning forward of 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 “!”}
