The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry
Yesterday and today, Thursday (12/26/2024), the strongest vibrational influence comes from Mercury joining with Jupiter and Saturn (5*). With this vibrational energy pattern, you are out and about, taking action, seeking to achieve your goals. You may just push your ideas out fighting if necessary to accomplish your goal. However, there will often be more sensitivity to the people around you, with you seeking to adapt the way you express your ideas to help others see how they can benefit as well. The big picture is an important part of what you are considering as you are analyzing each step of the process identifying what is most fundamental and important. There is also the patience with this energy to move systematically and carefully step by step. (For VA Students: 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28)
This vibrational energy pattern is better and more effectively implemented by starting a new project in partnership with others where each person takes equal responsibility. There will be a tendency to be always reaching out further and seeking something new and different.
The AstroFrequency(s) for the day (strongest listed first)
16 (2*) Inner motivations and desires developed and expressed as action
31 (2*) Operating out of your unique worldview without compromise skeptical of simplistic answers to life’s fundamental questions
The Sabian Symbols of our Featured Planets: Mercury, Jupiter, Saturn >>
The uplifting message from the featured planet positions that shows the way through: You are looking at the very long term consequences of your actions where the positive and constructive structures you have built outlive your errors and faults, while recognizing that you will never know all of the consequences of your positive loving actions. You are connecting through subtle levels of awareness with those around you; enabling you to perceive information not generally available. You are evaluating possible future situations that you will face, figuring out the skills that need to be developed to protect those for whom you’re responsible, recognizing the strength, authority and responsibility within you while being relaxed at the same time, recognizing that yours is an essential role in the unfolding of universal awareness. You are sharing with those who have the same background and experiences you have, receiving support and understanding, knowing that those experiences are not understood by other people.
The more dysfunctional expression of this message: You are feeling that what you do does not matter or getting caught in the present moment, blinded by your personal needs and mistakes unable to see the long term consequences of your actions. You are blocking your connection to the subtle levels: projecting your own fears into others and reacting without a clear sense of what is actually happening. You are constantly worrying about possible future problems, being fearful and overreacting and losing touch with the joy of life. You are feeling that you’re so different from everyone around you and so misunderstood that you pull off by yourself into isolation.
14 Sagittarius = Mercury [The Pyramids and the Sphinx] You are looking at the very long term consequences of your actions where the positive and constructive structures you have built outlive your errors and faults, while recognizing that you will never know all of the consequences of your positive loving actions and/or you are feeling that what you do does not matter or getting caught in the present moment, blinded by your personal needs and mistakes unable to see the long term consequences of your actions
14 Gemini = Jupiter interacting with Mercury [A conversation by telepathy] You are connecting through subtle levels of awareness with those around you; enabling you to perceive information not generally available and/or you are blocking your connection to the subtle levels: projecting your own fears into others and reacting without a clear sense of what is actually happening
15 Pisces = Saturn [An officer preparing to drill his men] You are evaluating possible future situations that you will face, figuring out the skills that need to be developed to protect those for whom you’re responsible, recognizing the strength, authority and responsibility within you while being relaxed at the same time, recognizing that yours is an essential role in the unfolding of universal awareness and/or you are constantly worrying about possible future problems, being fearful and overreacting and losing touch with the joy of life
15 Gemini = Jupiter interacting with Saturn [Two Dutch children talking] You are sharing with those who have the same background and experiences you have, receiving support and understanding, knowing that those experiences are not understood by other people and/or you are feeling that you’re so different from everyone around you and so misunderstood that you pull off by yourself into isolation
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}
Dec 26 – Dec 28 (exact Dec 27) Mercury in Sagittarius is acting and agitating (square) with Saturn in Pisces. This energy begins to influence us around 4 AM on Dec. 26 and is increasing in influence until it peaks at 2:29 AM on Dec. 27 then decreasing fading out around 1 AM on Dec. 28. This vibrational energy pattern is very analytical and will calmly evaluate whatever area you are focused on and then take whatever action you feel is necessary.
Dec 25 – Dec 27 (exact Dec 26) Mercury in Sagittarius is opposing Jupiter in Gemini. This energy is increasing in influence until it peaks at 5:47 PM on Dec. 26 then decreasing fading out around 1 PM on Dec. 27. This vibrational energy pattern is about seeing the big picture and reaching out to interact with and shift around and change some of the patterns you see to better accomplish your goals.
Dec 19, 2024 – Jan 2, 2025 (exact Dec 24) Jupiter in Gemini is acting and agitating (square) with Saturn in Pisces. This energy is decreasing fading out around 2 AM on Dec. 30. This vibrational energy pattern a sense of taking action based on disciplined expansion. This is a time when you can grow and develop new ways to take action and accomplish your goals.
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 5:30 AM, peaking at 7:30 AM, the Moon in Scorpio is flowing freely (trine) with Saturn in Pisces. This 4 hr period stimulates an internal awareness of the patterns that are working for your long term benefit and those that are undermining your goals. It is easier to shift at this time to a more effective pattern that supports your goals.
Starting at 10:08 PM, peaking at 12:08 AM early December 27, the Moon in Scorpio is acting and agitating (square) with Venus in Aquarius. This 4 hr period brings a desire to feel beautiful. You will probably be more aware of your appearance and the appearance of the world around you. You may be moved to make something around you look nicer.
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 December 21, the Sun entered Capricorn. This is the Winter Solstice and this pattern will be influencing us until the Spring Equinox on March 20. This vibrational energy includes energies for emotional expansion. There is a focus on internal work and awareness where you evaluate and develop your internal self. The process would be to eliminate superficial energies from within yourself and to work on deepening your internal awareness and connections. The Sabian Symbol for the Winter Solstice is “The Germ grows into Knowledge and Life”. Here you find a germ of potential understanding within you and you work on developing and growing that new awareness, expanding your knowledge and connection with life. There are potential problems if you let your insecurity keep you from opening up to the broader truths in the situation.
On December 15, the Full Moon occurred with the Moon in Gemini and the Sun in Sagittarius. This pattern will be influencing us until the next New Moon on December 30, 2024. This vibrational energy pattern brings an inclination to see the past as beautiful and as the guide to living today. There is a feeling of devotion to the mother and a valuing of things with a long history seeing them as beautiful. There is the potential here to work with the world around you exploring and interacting seeking to rearrange things in better patterns. There may also be a desire to shift the world around you into a more spiritual way of operating where the value of each person is honored. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A Bluebird standing at the Door of the House” which is about celebrating your new land and feeling at home and comfortable as you are affirming and accepting the blessings and happiness offered. Focus on gratitude for what you have rather than looking for some other place that is better and failing to see the blessings and happiness right at your door. The Moon Symbol is “Children skating on Ice”. This is about putting into practice the skills that you’ve developed, maneuvering cheerfully and flexibly through difficult and demanding environments, learning to watch for signs of possible danger. Be aware that it is possible for everything to collapse at any time. There is a caution here to not recklessly rush into situations without evaluating them to determine how safe they are.
On December 1, the New Moon occurred with the Moon and Sun in Sagittarius. This pattern will be influencing us until the next New Moon on December 30, 2024. This vibrational energy pattern is expansive and helps you to be aware of the big picture. This is a time for carefully formulating long term plans that will be a true expression of who you are. These plans can be implemented at the proper time. The Sabian Symbol for the New Moon is “A Golden-Haired Goddess of Opportunity” which indicates that the fantastic opportunities that you are perceiving need to be carefully evaluated and responded to appropriately. There is a potential here for opening the door to fulfillment, experiencing great success, and making opportunities available to others as well as yourself. If you do not evaluate the validity of the opportunities in front of you, you can be easily exploited by others.
On October 2, the New Moon Solar Eclipse occurred with the Sun and Moon in Libra. This pattern will be influencing us until the next New Moon Solar Eclipse on March 29, 2025. This vibrational energy pattern shows a strong need for the freedom to express yourself as you feel inside. This involves the development of your own unique pattern of expression being within your culture but free to operate as who you truly are with the awarenesses you have developed. If this is blocked there is likely to be a strong sense of dissatisfaction where you join with others and reach out seeking to find another more satisfactory place. The Sabian Symbol for the Solar Eclipse is “A Professor peering over his Glasses” which encourages you to move beyond your normal mode of perception to perceive a more comprehensive reality where others are viewed kindly, seriously and with respect.. The challenge is to not get caught up in a superior position that distorts your perception and leads to you seeing others as inferior to you where they need to be bossed around for their own good.
On September 17, 2024, a Full Moon Lunar Eclipse occurred with the Moon in Pisces and the Sun in Virgo. This pattern will be influencing us until the next Full Moon Lunar Eclipse on March 14, 2025. This vibrational energy pattern brings a focus on dreams and ideals that last past death. This is about tuning into the long term patterns of unfolding evolving awareness that transcend the resistance of the moment. There is a major focus in this eclipse on evaluation of your motives and drives to be sure you are getting the result you want. There is also a balancing of your individual view of life against what works for everyone else. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A Boy with a Censer” which involves learning how to expand your awareness and accept responsibility for both yourself and your interactions with others by modeling yourself after those who are more spiritually experienced and developed. The Moon Symbol is “A New Moon that divides its Influences” which involves learning how to operate effectively in both the spiritual and the earthly realms based on a new vision and finding your unique way to respond to that vision. If you do not realize that everyone is connected you may start feeling alone and isolated.
The Retrograde Diary: DEGREE CHANGES TODAY: Mercury >> Reworking of Mars, Jupiter: Turning Forward of Uranus, Neptune: Resolution of Mercury, Saturn, 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 “!!!”}
