The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry*
Today, Sunday (9/4/2022), the strongest vibrational influence comes from Mars joining with Saturn and Pluto (2*). The strongest vibrational pattern today is about interacting with others harmoniously and seeking to achieve your goals in ways that those involved with you are comfortable with. There is a lot of creativity in the ways that you interact with others and bring your goals to fruition. There is also a willingness to do the hard work involved in achieving your goals in harmonious ways. This includes a sense of what is really essential and an ability to focus on those essential things to the exclusion of everything else. (For VA Students: 30)
The AstroFrequency(s) for the day (strongest listed first)
30 (2*) Creative Harmonious Shared Interaction with Others
28 (1*) Driven to find meaning, purpose, or other internal significance
The Sabian Symbols of our Featured Planets: Mars, Saturn, Pluto >>> The uplifting message from the featured planet positions that shows the way through: You are realizing that you continue hurting yourself and others through the things you are doing unconsciously and you start paying more attention to what you are actually saying and doing. You are recognizing that you have not been being true to yourself, tending to get lost in the needs of others, refocusing on the true expression of yourself and your potentials. You are climbing to the heights of the mountains, seeking to make the connections needed to bring a deeper level of spiritual awareness into yourself and the world. The more dysfunctional expression of this message: You are rejecting the buried pain within you and denying its existence. You are getting lost in grief and guilt, letting your disappointment and disillusionment swallow you up, being unable to let go of the past. You are seeking to reach the top of the heap in order to show that you’re better than others so you can look down on them from your exalted position.

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}
Aug 15 – Sep 17 (closest position Sep 9, never exact) Mercury in Libra is flowing freely (trine) with Mars in Gemini. This vibe is increasing in influence until Mercury turns retrograde on Sept 9 then decreasing fading out on Sept 17. It will come back and culminate on Oct 26, 2022. This vibration connects your ability to act and communicate into the ideas and thoughts you are thinking about. There is a very nice flow that should lead to some very effective actions. First evaluate your actions during the time from Aug 15 to Sept 17, and see what actions make sense. Know that in October there will be a big opportunity that you can prepare for now.
Sep 1 – Sep 4 (exact Sep 2) Mercury in Libra is opposing Jupiter in Aries. This vibe is decreasing fading out around 11 AM. This vibration is all about expanding your mental patterns, reaching out and seeing bigger connections that give you a real understanding of the big picture. Just be aware that you may miss some detail clues in the process.
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 3:49 AM, peaking at 5:49 AM, the Moon in Sagittarius is sharing freely (sextile) with Saturn in Aquarius. In this 4 hr period you find it easy to accept responsibility and work comfortably with others getting the things done that really need to be done.
Starting at 10:32 AM, peaking at 12:32 PM, the Moon in Sagittarius 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.
Starting at 7:51 PM, peaking at 9:51 PM, the Moon in Sagittarius is flowing freely (trine) with Venus in Leo. This 4 hr period brings a very nice flow of love and good feelings. This can be a special time to share with those you care about.
At 10:02 PM the Moon enters Capricorn and you may find yourself less emotional and more objective than at other times. If you realize that this is the point in the Moon’s cycle when objective evaluation is appropriate, then you can use this time to review the last month and see what you have learned and what you need to work on.
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 3, the First Quarter Moon occurred with the Sun in Virgo and the Moon in Sagittarius. This vibrational energy will be influencing us for the next week until the Full Moon on September 10. This Vibrational Pattern is focused on very challenging forms of expression. Furthermore, there is an obsessive quality to the emotional patterns pushing you to say what you are really feeling. This is about really expressing what is happening within you. The challenge is to do this without totally alienating other people. If when you feel you must say something, if you could preface it in some way to show your concern for the other person it would help. Something like “this is really difficult for me to express, please understand I really care about you” or something like that. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A Bride with her Veil snatched away”. This is about being forced to reveal yourself. You can use this energy to make commitments to being open and real which can bring transformative change. The Moon Symbol is “A Flag that turns into an Eagle that Crows”. Here is the opportunity to move into a new sense of spiritual connections that enable you to celebrate your unique individuality.
On August 27, the New Moon occurs with the Sun and Moon in Virgo. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the next New Moon September 25. In this vibrational pattern there is a very strong emphasis on accomplishing your goals in ways that are comfortable and pleasing to those around you. There is an abundance of energy available to do this and a tendency to claim the freedom to operate in the moment spontaneously. At the same time there is an almost instinctive ability to operate in ways that will flow harmoniously in your environment. The Sabian Symbol for the New Moon is “A Man Dreaming of Fairies”. This is about using your imagination. It brings a tendency to see the deeper, invisible levels of the world and within yourself. There is the potential here to reintegrate some rejected aspects of yourself and your world. There is a warning here about using your imagination to escape from reality, which could mean losing touch with yourself and possibly getting caught up in delusions. The tendency with this New Moon is that it brings amazing potential if you will reintegrate the patterns you have rejected.
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 22. The vibrational energy pattern for the solstice contains a shared potential for creative exploration. There is also a sense of shared restlessness and dissatisfaction that seems to drive people to seek something different than what they have. The Sabian Symbol for the Summer Solstice comes from the relationship of the Sun to the Moon. It is “A Gypsy coming out of the Forest” which shows the potential for people to move beyond their previously restricted viewpoint and become aware of a larger reality that they can connect into.
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 awareness 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: NO DEGREE CHANGES TODAY >> Introductory Period of Mercury, Mars: Turning back of Uranus: Reworking of 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 “!”}
