The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry
At 10:12 PM EDT on April 1, the Full Moon occurred with the Moon in Libra and the Sun in Aries.
Today, Thursday (4/02/2026), the strongest vibrational influence comes from Mercury joining with Jupiter and Pluto (1*). This Vibrational Energy Pattern is about seeking to create the type of community you want to be a part of. You are focusing on one or more people around you and following their ideas working out how those ideas relate to you. You are especially focused on the broad picture, looking at the overview of what you are seeing happen around you. For VA Students (9, 18)
This vibrational energy pattern is better and more effectively implemented by developing yourself as a unique individual and encouraging others to do the same. This pattern recommends that you work in relationship with others developing naturally at your own speed.

The Sabian Symbols of our Featured Planets: Mercury, Jupiter, Pluto >>
The uplifting message from the featured planet positions that shows the way through: You are connecting into the flow of spiritual inspiration moving through you and out into the world, being flexible and open to that which you have not previously known or experienced. You are finding an ancient source that contains information related to what you’re experiencing, giving a better understanding of this vast new world you have encountered. You are recognizing that you’re a part of the mystery, the spiritual drama of life, humbly understanding that this life’s experiences are just the part that was assigned for you to do.
The more dysfunctional expression of this message: You are closing up and being caught in a cycle of negativity that limits your perceptions and shuts you off from others. You are limiting your focus to current understandings, assuming the current levels of awareness contain everything you need and, thus, missing vital clues contained in ancient sources of wisdom. You are claiming special privilege and prestige because of the special awareness and talents that you have developed, feeling that you are more important and perhaps more evolved than the people around you.

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 o fthe aspect. The longer patterns are stronger and so are listed here, followed by a section on the Moods of the Moon}.
Apr 2 – Apr 4 (exact Apr 3) Venus in Taurus is acting and agitating (square) with Pluto in Aquarius. This energy begins to influence us around 11 PM on Apr 2 and is increasing in influence until it peaks at 6:38 PM on Apr 3 then it is decreasing fading out around 2 PM on Apr 4. This vibrational energy pattern brings a strong sense of attraction to beauty. This may be an irrational feeling of needing to be some place or be with some particular person. Listen to your heart and if you can indulge yourself.
Apr 2 – Apr 4 (exact Apr 3) Mercury in Pisces is flowing freely (trine) with Jupiter in Cancer. This energy begins to influence us around 5 AM on Apr 2 and is increasing in influence until it peaks at 7:28 AM on Apr 3 then it is decreasing fading out around 9 AM on Apr 4. This vibrational energy pattern brings an easy flow of perception of the big picture giving you a perspective on what is happening in your life and in the world around you.
Mar 19 – Apr 6 (exact Mar 28) Saturn in Aries is sharing freely (sextile) with Pluto in Aquarius. This energy is decreasing fading out around 10 PM on Apr 6. This vibrational energy pattern brings a sense of what is of fundamental importance, the ability to focus on it and to ignore all the trivial things going on around it.
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.}
At 10:12 PM yesterday, the Moon in Libra is opposing the Sun in Aries. This is the Full Moon. See the Cyclic Patterns Diary below.
Starting at 2:55 AM, peaking at 4:55 AM, the Moon in Libra is acting and agitating (square) with Jupiter in Cancer. In this 4 hr period your emotions will tend to expand. If you are feeling good, this can be great. If you are not feeling good, then this can be difficult. See if you can direct your feelings and thoughts to things that are pleasant and positive and you will be rewarded with some really good feelings.
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 10:12 PM EDT on April 1, the Full Moon occurs with the Moon in Libra and the Sun in Aries. This Vibrational Energy Pattern will be influencing us until the next New Moon on April 17, 2026. This Vibrational Energy Pattern is very aware of the ways our society fails to be a paradise. You are likely to focus on one such area and try to address it and make some changes. You may find yourself looking to other cultures and the way they seek to solve some of the problems that your own culture is having trouble with. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “ An Unsuccessful Bomb Explosion”. This is about learning to face your situation and take personal responsibility for yourself and your actions having found that rebelling and seeking to break free does not work because you can’t avoid the restrictions, limitations, and constraints of finite existence, can’t deny them and can’t explode to get out of them. These are forces like gravity and responsibility for your actions. If you fight against the fundamental responsibilities of life you will end up operating in a state of denial of personal responsibility and substituting illusions for reality. The Symbol for the Moon is “Children blowing Soap Bubbles” which is about spontaneously enjoying a playful focus, sharing with others in the present in delight and wonder, finding great creativity unfolding in your life. There is a danger of getting caught up in daydreams where you reject any type of serious responsible behavior or at the other extreme you may reject rejecting any type of frivolous, light, impractical behavior.
On March 20, the Spring/Fall Equinox occurred as the Sun entered Aries, the Spring/Fall Equinox. This Vibrational Energy Pattern will be influencing us at least until the Summer/Winter Solstice on June 21, 2026. This Vibrational Energy Pattern is especially focused on finding ways to share your sense of life with other people. There is a strong desire to support good positive connections to society and to seek to communicate your sense of how to live in society in a way that works for everyone. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun Moon relationship at the Spring Equinox is “A Pugilist entering the Ring” which is about having a strong sense of yourself as a person who is willing to stand up for yourself and fight for what you know and believe in no matter what the opposition. If you fail to effectively defend your point of view you will have to deal with the consequences.
On March 18, the New Moon occurred with the Moon and Sun in Pisces. This Vibrational Energy Pattern will be influencing us until the next New Moon on April 17, 2026. This Vibrational Energy Pattern occurs with the Sun and Moon very close to Saturn and Neptune. This brings a restatement of the themes of the Saturn Neptune conjunction related to differentiating between fundamental Spiritual Truths and lies, deception and betrayal. There is a strong awareness of the ways that society is failing its people with a drive to address these issues. This is contained within a process of pattern recognition and how the flowing patterns are affecting all of us. The Sabian Symbol for the New Moon is “A Prism”. This is about recognizing that the divine is the split into many facets or rays of which you’re one, celebrating the beauty of the whole and the beauty of each part of the whole. The pitfall is to lock yourself into seeing everything from a particular perspective and missing the broad overview. You may also tend to over-analyze everything and lose track of the essence in a study of the pieces.
On March 3, the Full Moon Lunar Eclipse occurred with the Moon in Virgo and the Sun in Pisces. This Vibrational Energy Pattern will be influencing us until the next Lunar Eclipse, on August 28, 2026. This Vibrational Energy Pattern will be influencing us until the next Solar Eclipse, on August 12, 2026. This Vibrational Energy Pattern is about stepping back and seeing the big picture. There may be a lot of emotional activity connected with this eclipse. There is also the potential for exceptional communication that can be very effective. This pattern shows that there is a potential to act out of your personal concepts without taking other people into account. There are hidden things going on that have the potential to be revealed and cause a big shift in understanding. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A Sword in a Museum”. This presents a choice. You can lay aside the use of force to gain your ends and embrace love and peace, both within yourself and in your interactions with others. Or you can hold grudges and be ready to fight others at any sign of opposition. Or you can give up in defeat and feel worthless and useless. The Symbol for the Moon is “A Strong Hand supplanting Political Hysteria”. Here the power of your personality and your spiritual awareness is acting to calm the situation down. Alternatively, you are being too timid and afraid to take action, losing the opportunity to gain control; or using your power and energy to manipulate the reactions of others for your personal gain.
On February 17, the Solar Eclipse (a New Moon) occurred with the Moon and Sun in Aquarius. This Vibrational Energy Pattern will be influencing us until the next Solar Eclipse, on August 12, 2026.This Vibrational Energy Pattern brings a sudden unexpected change that surprises everyone. The energy is focused on internal evaluation of the patterns that you are seeing around you with you seeing what changes are needed to reestablish a flow within the social structure. There is the capacity here to take the actions that will bring about that change. The Sabian Symbol for the Eclipse is “Butterfly emerging from Chrysalis”. This speaks of emerging from a long period of suspended confinement within a transformative cocoon. You are discovering that you have experienced a complete metamorphosis of your personal self in this time period. The key is to open up to new and different experiences and not hold onto the old limited form.
The Retrograde Diary: DEGREE CHANGES TODAY: Mercury >> Introductory Period of Neptune: Turning Backward of Pluto: Turning Forward of Jupiter: Resolution of Mercury, Uranus. {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 “!!!”}
