The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry*

Today, Thursday (7/23/20), the strongest vibrational influence comes from Mercury and Venus joining with Pluto (1*). This vibration is very creative seeking to grow and evolve in a natural way at its own pace.  Your mind is engaged and effective today and moving smoothly from one thought to another. You may find that you are capable of expressing yourself perhaps better than usual.  Today is a great day for writing a paper you have been putting off. Your literary abilities will be at a peak today.  This is also a good time to enjoy some type of book or poetry that speaks to you.  Or engage in some project that requires a lot of creativity as well as literary ability.  It’s all there today, enjoy!

The Sabian Symbols of our Featured Planets: Mercury, Venus, Pluto
The pattern of these symbols involves recognizing that each of us contains a divine message and awareness that we need to nurture an develop.  Working with those who can relate to your experiences, beliefs and understandings will help you gain greater insight.  This may lead to an opportunity to draw back and connect into spirit more deeply as you seek to be of service to others.

12 Cancer = Mercury

24 Capricorn = Pluto

15 (1*) Free-flowing evolving non-linear playful creativity

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}

Jul 21 – Jul 23 (exact Jul 22) Mercury in Cancer is sharing freely (sextile) with Uranus in Taurus. This vibe is decreasing fading out around 5 PM on July 23. This vibration has our minds working really quickly and can bring sudden insights as we interact with others.
 
Jul 18- Aug 7 (exact Jul 27) Jupiter in Capricorn is sharing freely (sextile) with Neptune in Pisces. This vibe is increasing in influence until it peaks at 12:06 PM on July 27 then decreasing fading out around 2 AM on August 7. This vibration is especially focused on expanding your dreams through sharing with others in harmonious ways and through collaboration with like minded people.
 
The Moods of the Moon
{Remember that the quick Moon patterns impact our moods and feelings for a window of a
couple of hours either side of their peak time.}

Starting at 11:16 AM, peaking at 1:16 PM, the Moon in Virgo is flowing freely (trine) with Uranus in Taurus. This 4 hr period is a time when you expecially appreciate and desire the freedom to do what you spontaneously feel like you need to do in each moment.
Starting at 12:47 PM, peaking at 2:47 PM, the Moon in Virgo is sharing freely (sextile) with Mercury in Cancer. This 4 hr period has the mind and emotions balanced and this is a good time for working on projects you are seeking to finish.

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 July 20 the New Moon occurred with the Sun in Cancer and the Moon in Capricorn. This pattern will be influencing us until the next New Moon on August 18. This vibrational pattern brings a sensitivity to what those around you are experiencing with a strong desire to take action that will lead to a better future for everyone. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun and Moon is “A Muse weighing twins”.  This is about recognizing that you consider all the factors and collect as much information as you reasonably can and then you make an intuitive decision about which way to go.  You are warned to not seek perfection, it will keep you from making a decision and doing what needs to be done.

The Eclipse Season was from June 4 through July 5 and the patterns of this season will be in effect at least until the next Eclipse Season starts on November 30. The Eclipses begin by helping us to recognize that there is something special within each of us and that it is important for each of us to communicate our ideas clearly recognizing that there is a give and take to life as we share with each other.  It then reminded us that we need to be adaptable and realize that we are being called to a new orientation to life.  Each of us need to face our self-centeredness and reorganize ourselves to more effectively respond to the demands of ourselves and our world. We need to develop a bigger focus that encompasses all of the universe recognizing that we are part of something bigger than ourselves while at the same time being open to ancient truths that may contain wisdom that will help us to be more aware and more effective.

The Sun entered Cancer on June 20.  This is the Summer Solstice, one of the 4 seasonal turning points for the year.  This will be influencing us for 3 months until the Fall Equinox on September 22. This vibration is about working things through in your mind and then acting on what you figure out.  The Sabian Symbol for the Moon is “Winter Frost in the Woods”.  This is about each of us having all the excess trimmed away so that we can connect in with the bare essential structure within us and connect in with our innate strength.  You deal with feelings of fear and loss by connecting into the core of yourself, the spiritual center of your being. This leads to you opening yourself up to the wonder and mystery of life and developing a greater awareness of your connection with others.

The Retrograde Diary: DEGREE CHANGES Mercury
Turning Backward of Uranus, Neptune: Reworking Patterns of Mercury, Jupiter, Saturn, Pluto: Resolution of Mercury, 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.}
