The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry*
Today, Thursday (05/04/2023), the strongest vibrational influence comes from Venus joining with Jupiter and Neptune (1*). This vibrational pattern is seeking to balance the needs and drive to accomplish that you have within you with the feelings and needs of those around you. The effective way to operate in this vibrational energy is to be aware of the people around you and to seek to work cooperatively with them finding a way to meet our needs and be of benefit to them at the same time. There is a sense here of rich expansive beauty that is seeking to connect in with the magic and wonder of reaching out beyond the superficial mundane levels into a feeling of something so amazing it is just “out of this world”.

The Sabian Symbols of our Featured Planets: Venus, Jupiter, Neptune >>> The uplifting message from the featured planet positions that shows the way through: You are moving beyond your previously restricted viewpoint, beginning to be awareof a larger reality. You are celebrating the abundant fullness of the harvest within your soul, guided by the divine, recognizing that you have a responsibility to preserve that which you have gathered for the future. You are getting a second chance enabling you to reconnect with lost opportunities through the use of your imagination. You are realizing that you’ve failed to relate effectively and you’re working to include others in the equation as you get an opportunity to start over again. You are being confronted with the results of your lack of awareness, personal preoccupation and blindness that have disappointed and hurt others and yourself, facing your failings and engaging in the self-evaluation that will enable you to grow and change. The more dysfunctional expression of this message: You are being dissatisfied with everything you encounter and always looking for greener pastures, failing to see the gifts right in front of you. You are being surrounded by abundance and wastefully neglecting to properly care for the bounty you have been given, leaving it to rot and be wasted. You are getting caught up in loss and despair, failing to believe in yourself and closing your imagination down with the result that you fail every time you try. You are continuing in their responsible patterns that have gotten you in trouble in the past, risking everything and blaming others for your actions. You are holding onto old ego patterns, only seeing your viewpoint; becoming angry with others for not going along with your personal preoccupations and agenda.

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}
May 3 – May 6(exact May 5) Venus in Gemini is sharing freely (sextile) with Jupiter in Aries. This vibe is increasing in influence until it peaks at 12:02 AM on May 5 then decreasing fading out around 4 AM on May 6. This vibration brings an attunement to rich elegant beauty. There may be the opportunity here to increase the beauty inyour life and/or in the world.
May 3 – May 5(exact May 4) Venus in Gemini is acting and agitating (square) with Neptune in Pisces. This vibe is increasing in influence until it peaks at 1:40 PM then decreasing fading out around 12 PM on May 5. This vibration is focused on your ideals and dreams and the enticing out of this world beauty of these patterns as you visualize them within you. There may be opportunity here to take action to move towards realizing these dreams.
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 1:54 AM, peaking at 3:54 AM, the Moon in Libra is flowing freely (trine) with Venus in Gemini. 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.
Starting at 3:17 AM, peaking at 5:17 AM, the Moon in Libra is opposing Jupiter in Aries. In this 4 hr period you will be feeling optimistic and expansive and wanting to expand your horizons by having new experiences and getting to know new people This is a really good time to be involved in social interactions with other people.
At 10:32 AM the Moon enters Scorpio For the next 2 ½ days the Moon in Scorpio can tend to get very emotionally intense. The desire is to merge with the people you are involved with and with the projects you are working on. This can be uncomfortable for those not used to it as you can feel like you are being swallowed up. If it gets too much, just step back for a couple of minutes and take a breath, or even take a walk around the block to help you temporarily disconnect.
Starting at 9:12 AM, peaking at 11:12 AM, the Moon in Scorpio is acting and agitating (square) with Pluto in Aquarius. In this 4 hr period you may feel a need to act based on deep feelings within you that may come to the surface at this time. Ask yourself whether you are responding to the past or the present. Try to not put past feeling on the people you are currently interacting with.
Starting at 6:53 PM, peaking at 8:53 PM, 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.
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 April 27 the First Quarter Moon occurred with the Sun in Taurus and the Moon in Leo. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the Full Moon on May 5. This energy concentration focuses on seeking to reach deep into the fundamental spiritual truths that underlie this world we live in and to understand ourselves and our world better because of these deep connections. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A Sleigh without Snow” which tunes into the unfolding of future possibilities and works on developing the skills and tools needed to meet future situations. The Moon Symbol is “A Bolshevic Propagandist”. This involves tearing down the status quo in order to make space for changes that can improve people’s lives. The challenge is to learn to let go and reach out to embrace new possibilities.
On April 20 the New Moon a Solar Eclipse occurred with the Sun and the Moon in Aries. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the next Solar Eclipse on October 14. This eclipse in Aries emphasizes our connection with ourselves and encourages you to find a way to do what you feel called to do deep within you. There is a focus on interacting with the world and exploring whatever we are drawn to. This process can be very creative. And with this vibration it leads to taking actions based on your discoveries. The Sabian Symbol for this eclipse is “A Duck Pond and its Brood”. This is about recognizing that you are operating within a bounded,limited sphere of activity where you are inter-linked with a particular group of people. It is important to realize that you are interconnected with people in a larger realm and to realize that you need to take into account this larger realm rather than just focusing on the needs of your group.
On March 20 the Spring Equinox occurred as the Sun enters Aries. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the Summer Solstice on June 21. This is the balancing point of the year when the days and nights are of equal length. This year’s Spring Equinox brings a strong feeling of needing to have your ideas be exceprtional and amazing. The vibration for Spring is deeply involved in sharing other people’s stories and there is a tendency to act based on the things you have learned from others to seek to make the lives of those around you better. The Sabian Symbol for the distance from the Sun to the Moon is “A master instructing his pupil. This is about participating in the transfer of higher knowledge and wisdom, being open to receiving deep insights from unexpected places. This energy becomes distorted if you claim a superior status and special privileges based on your position. This is about recognizing the worth and authority of each person.
The Retrograde Diary: NO DEGREE CHANGES TODAY >> Introductory phase of Saturn, Neptune: Turning Backward of Pluto: Reworking of Mercury: Resolution of 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 “!”}
