The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry
Mars joins with Saturn and Uranus (1*) to form the strongest vibrational influence of the day (12/20/18). This brings an interest in creative expression in an evolutionary expression of disciplined spontaneous action. You want to be yourself but you are willing to work on the things that rise up within you doing the demanding boring work necessary to bring your creative expression into life. If you do any kind of disciplined physical action like sports, ballet, or tai chi, you may discover something important as you practice these patterns today. You will be likely to act today with meaning and spontaneity.
The AstroFrequency(s) for the day (strongest listed first)
10 (1*) Evolving non-linear playful and creative interactions
18 (1*) Union with others in a community, focus with others on the needs of the community
24 (1*) Harmonious or free flowing action to manifest something or make something happenn
The Dancing 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 first, followed by the Moods of the Moon}
Dec 19 – Dec 21 (exact Dec 20) the Sun in Sagittarius is flowing freely (trine) with Uranus in Aries. This vibration is increasing in strength peaking at 11:22 AM and then decreasing fading out on Dec 21. This vibration brings a feeling of impulsiveness and a desire to act spontaneously in whatever way you feel like. Give yourself some space as this vibration increased in strength to just do what you feel like to prevent this energy from building up enough to cause problems. Remember you and everyone around you will be more impulsive than usual. Take extra care when doing things where a misjudgment or an impulsive reaction could be dangerous as when working with machinery or driving.
Dec 20 – Dec 22 (exact Dec 21) Venus in Scorpio is flowing freely (trine) with Neptune in Pisces. At about 10 AM you may start to feel this influence. This is about tuning into your dreams and visions for your life and involves a tendency to live more in what might be and what you would like to be than in what is right now. This may distort your judgment so this is not a good time to make long term commitments or contracts.
Dec 20 – Dec 22 (exact Dec 21) Mercury in Sagittarius is joining with Jupiter in Sagittarius. At about 3PM you may start to feel this influence. This vibration inclines you to step back and look at the big picture. What is really happening and what are the implications of the actions you take? There is the potential here to expand your picture of your life and of what life is about and a potential desire to reach out into new realms that you may sense opening up to you during this time.
The Moods of the Moon
{Remember that the quick Moon patterns that impact our moods and feelings for a window of a couple of hours either side of their listed time.}
At 9:34 AM the Moon enters Gemini bringing 2 ½ days where your mood may be light hearted and you may just feel like exploring your world especially in combination with spending time with friends. This is a wonderful time to stop and smell the roses or walk down the main drag in your town go into some of the shops you have never been in to just learn what they are doing. You may discover something really exciting.
Starting at 10:41 PM, peaking at 12:41 AM right after midnight, the Moon in Gemini is opposing Mercury in Sagittarius. This vibrational pattern can either have the mind and the emotions working in complement to each other, respecting each other and forming a complementary whole or the mind and feelings can be fighting with each other. It depends on whether your mind and feelings have learned how to work together.
Starting at 11:35 PM, peaking at 1:35 AM after midnight, the Moon in Gemini is opposing Jupiter in Sagittarius. This is about expansion and can involve the emotions escalating and going out of control. At its best this is a feeling of joy and enthusiasm. At its worst it is negative emotions spiraling out of control.
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.}
The First Quarter Moon was on Dec 15 with the Moon in Pisces acting and agitating (square) to the Sun in Sagittarius. This pattern will influence you until the Full Moon on Dec 22. There is a sense here of being involved in the lives of those around you. This is combined with a need to take action. The Sabian symbol for the Sun is “A bluebird standing at the door of the house”. This speaks to the importance of recognizing your worth and accepting the blessing and happiness you are being offered. The Moon symbol “An inhabited island” shows that you do this by grounding within yourself in the essence of yourself, recognizing your boundaries and empowering yourself while learning how to balance your needs against the needs of those around you. Thus you deal with your needs and are responsive to the needs of those around you recognizing that we are all in this together.
The New Moon was on Dec 7 with the Sun and Moon joining in Sagittarius. This pattern will be influencing you until the next New Moon, a solar eclipse on Jan 5. The core energy in this New Moon and for this entire Lunar Month is a sense of restlessness and dissatisfaction. Everything is out of balance and not at all like you have dreamed it would be. The challenge of this New Moon is shown in its Sabian symbol, “Sea gulls watching a ship”. This is about the give and take of life as you act to meet your needs but let go of the things you no longer need so that they can help others. It is important to go ahead and act as you need to and not get caught in an illusion of helplessness and dependency on others to meet your needs.
The Fall Equinox was on Sept. 22 and will be a vibrational influence in our lives until the Winter Solstice on Dec. 21. This is when the Sun enters Libra and day and night are of equal length. This is the transition into the half of the year when the nights are longer than the days. The Fall Equinox pattern will continue to influence us until the Winter Solstice on Dec. 21. This fall there is a focus on interacting in a focused way with others in teams with common goals. There is also a desire to be guided in your actions by someone you respect who serves as a teacher or coach. You will tend to be very mentally sensitive and responsive and torn between your sense of responsibility and your desire to express yourself in your own way. The Sabian symbol for the Moon is “A cross lying on rocks”. This is about true awakening and the painful process of transcending the barriers within you that block that awakening. In the process of awakening you may feel like your life is ending if you do not realize that this is a transition phase into a greater awareness once you disconnect from the beliefs that are blocking your awakening.
The overview of the Current Eclipse Cycle of 3 Eclipses between July 12 and August 11. {We will be feeling the vibrational effect of the current eclipse cycle at least until the start of the next cycle on January 5, 2019. The following is the summary of the guidance from the Sabian Symbols for the eclipses in this cycle.}
Express your gifts as a natural outflow of who you are without feeling that you deserve special treatment. Your reactions to situations may come from problems in your past that have not been resolved with the current situation just being a trigger. You can receive guidance, knowledge and wisdom from the spirit world and from your ancestors helping you tune into ancient wisdom and understand how it can be effective in addressing the problems you face today. This will allow you to relax into an easy flow of interaction with other people where you are accepting other people and they are accepting you. Open up to your higher universal awareness and connections and let it guide you.
The Retrograde Diary: Check out changes today: DEGREE CHANGES: Mercury
Turning Forward of Uranus, Neptune: Final Resolution of Mercury, 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.}
!!!Mercury: {Oct 28 [Nov 17 – Dec 6] Dec 24} 27 Scorpio – 13 Sagittarius
Dec. 20 – 21: (8-9 Sag) Resolution: Remember to be guided with love and care through progressive levels of awareness and growth, learning to stop refusing to give or receive help insisting that you can do it all on your own or refusing to grow up and continuing to expect to be looked after and taken care of
Saturn {Jan. 10 [Apr. 17 – Sept. 6] Dec. 12} 2 – 9 Capricorn
Dec. 11 – 20: (9-10 Cap) Resolution: Remember to face your fears and move beyond superstition to recognize and embrace your common linkages with all creatures in the world, even embracing and nurturing those aspects of yourself that feel like burdens or curses, learning to reach out beyond yourself as you release your fear of getting close to that which is different from yourself as well as your fear of getting hurt through intimacy

Oct. 22 – Dec. 27, 2018: (14-13 Pis) Turning Forward: The Challenge is to radiate grace, beauty, and intelligence as you experience the presence of a deeply receptive awareness within you that contains an expanded awareness of, love for, and respect of all of the manifestations of life, learning to stop getting caught up in the superficial trappings of elegance without developing a truly elegant internal awareness
Pluto {Dec. 31, 2017 [Apr. 22 – Sept. 30] Jan. 21, 2019} 18 – 21 Capricorn
Dec. 13, 2018 – Jan. 12, 2019: (20-21 Cap) Resolution: Remember to realize that you cannot accomplish your goals by yourself and ally yourself with others so you can reach a common goal together, learning to stop refusing to work together cooperatively with other people and to trust something beyond yourself
