The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry
For the last 3 days and today, Sunday (09/10/2023),the strongest vibrational influence comes from Venus joining with Saturn and Uranus (3*). This vibrational energy pattern is focused on your relationship with your community. Here community means people that you are connected with. This included people that you interact with and people who interact with the people you interact with where there is some concept or other organizing principle that joins you together. You may find yourself especially focused on relating to one or more other people in your community. You may also be aware of where your community fails to meet the needs of the people involved and seek to understand and address the problems. You are attracted to the foundational understandings you can develop of what is going on and you are likely to find yourself developing your own original ideas about the patterns involved and their causes. (For VA Students: 9, 18, 27)
The AstroFrequency(s) for the day (strongest listed first)
10 (3*) Play and Creative Exploration with Others
27 (3*) Deep Need to bring peace and healing for the problems in your community
5 (3*) Playful and creative exploration
The Sabian Symbols of our Featured Planets: Venus, Saturn, Uranus >>>
The uplifting message from the featured planet positions that shows the way through:
You are moving back, contemplating all that you have experienced, getting it in perspective and, thus, increasing your understanding and finding guidance for future actions. You are finding a damaged part of yourself where there is no energy flowing, realizing that it contains rigid patterns that come from ancient times and old soul issues, patterns that have to be broken up enough that you can start to heal and rebuild this part of yourself, facing and transforming these ancient patterns and connecting this part of yourself back into universal light and love. You are recognizing your failures and the damage your blindness has done to others, facing it in this current moment; accepting responsibility for the damage you have done and seeking to make amends.
The more dysfunctional expression of this message:
You are being caught up in memory and disconnected from current reality. You are holding onto your difficult and rigid patterns, feeling frozen in a shape that you’re not willing to release. You are getting caught up in your sense of pride and aggressively claiming what you desire without any concern for the effect your behavior has on others.
13 Leo = Venus [An old sea captain rocking] You are moving back, contemplating all that you have experienced, getting it in perspective and, thus, increasing your understanding and finding guidance for future actions and/or you are being caught up in memory and disconnected from current reality
3 Pisces = Saturn [A petrified forest] You are finding a damaged part of yourself where there is no energy flowing, realizing that it contains rigid patterns that come from ancient times and old soul issues, patterns that have to be broken up enough that you can start to heal and rebuild this part of yourself, facing and transforming these ancient patterns and connecting this part of yourself back into universal light and love and/or you are holding onto your difficult and rigid patterns, feeling frozen in a shape that you’re not willing to release
24 Taurus = Uranus [A mounted Indian with scalp locks] You are recognizing your failures and the damage your blindness has done to others, facing it in this current moment; accepting responsibility for the damage you have done and seeking to make amends and/or you are getting caught up in your sense of pride and aggressively claiming what you desire without any concern for the effect your behavior has on others
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}
All the two planet patterns today involve the Moon, See Below.
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 8:34 PM yesterday, peaking at 10:34 PM yesterday, the Moon in Cancer is sharing freely (sextile) with Uranus in Taurus. In this 4 hr period you are wanting to share spontaneous exciting experiences with your friends and companions. You need the freedom to be able to impulsively do what you feel like in this moment.
Starting at 3:36 AM, peaking at 5:36 AM, the Moon in Cancer is flowing freely (trine) with Neptune in Pisces. This 4 hr period takes you into your dreams, they are living inside you and you are feeling them. You may find yourself daydreaming more than usual. You can use this time to get deeply in touch with your dreams and draw inspiration from them to help you make them more real.
Starting at 6:47 AM, peaking at 8:47 AM, the Moon in Cancer is opposing Pluto in Capricorn. In this 4 hr period you may connect into deep, even ancient feelings, within you if something another person does triggers you. Be aware of this potential and if it happens study what comes up and work on releasing it. If you respond directly to the other person, you are likely to over-react. This can be a powerful wave of energy that washes over you. You may need to walk away from the situation to keep from dumping this old energy on another person.
At 12:36 PM the Moon enters Leo and for 2 ½ days it brings a feeling of wanting to express yourself as a unique individual in a broad sweeping dramatic fashion. You will also enjoy the unique individual expressions of others around you.
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 September 6, 2023 the Third Quarter Moon occurred with the Sun in Virgo and the Moon in Gemini. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the Full Moon on September 14. This vibrational pattern brings a strong awareness of the past and how it is affecting the present. There may be a tendency to fixate on certain ideas and carry them to extremes. There is a strong need to take action and accomplish your goals in a way that is sensitive to the needs of others. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “An Ornamental Handkerchief” which is about recognizing that a beautiful façade may contain something dark and distorted. This is about recognizing the importance of looking below the surface and not accepting things at face value. The Symbol for the Moon is “Two Dutch Children Talking”. This symbol points to the possibility of you getting support and understanding from others of the same background where you share common experiences that others may not understand.
On August 30, the Full Moon occurred with the Moon in Pisces and the Sun in Virgo. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the next New Moon on September 14. This vibrational pattern is dealing with the complex stresses within your society. In the next two weeks there is the potential for some incremental change that may reduce the level of stress to a more manageable level. There is a strong emphasis on seeing what is actually going on, the foundational structures involved. There will be the opportunity to release ideas and behaviors that will not be viable on a more long term basis. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “First Dancing Instruction” which emphasizes the importance of flowing and responding with others. There is the opportunity here to discipline yourself under the guidance of an instructor using continued practice to gain self-control. It is important to realize that you have an opportunity here to learn something important. The Moon Symbol is “A Girl Blowing a Bugle”. This is about asking for help from higher spiritual forces as you become more aware and alert to the issues within and around you.
On August 16 the New Moon occurred with the Sun and Moon in Leo. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the next New Moon on September 14. This vibrational pattern involves a strong internal component where you are working within yourself seeking to get your internal experience of yourself to be more peaceful and smoothly flowing. You carefully consider what your motives are and what you actually want to see changed in the world around you before you take action. There are strong indicators of an intense need for a new level of awareness that brings a rebirth of the psyche. The Sabian Symbol for the New Moon is “An untidy, unkept Man” which is about no longer being bound by issues related to appearance, display and approval as you are developing a sense of self-worth. This comes from establishing a connection with internal resources that transcend the level of appearances.
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 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: DEGREE CHANGES TODAY: Mercury, Venus >> Turning Backward of Jupiter, Uranus: Reworking of Mercury, Saturn, Neptune, Pluto: Resolution of Venus {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 “!!!”}
