The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry*
At 9:04 PM EDT, the Fall Equinox occurs as the Sun enters Libra.
For the last two days and today, Thursday (9/22/2022), the strongest vibrational influence comes from Jupiter and Saturn joining with Uranus (1*). The strongest vibration today lasts three days and is about seeking to reach your goals in an effective way. This involves taking into account how your goals and the expression of them is going to affect other people. There is a recognition that you have to take other people’s ideas and needs into account in order to effectively reach your goals. This may involve reexamining your motives for what you are trying to accomplish. There is a strong sense of forming your own independent ideas about what needs to be done. This is combined with a need for expansion and growth. Yet at the same time there is the ability here to see what is really essential and to have your actions modified by that. There is a real potential here for growth and expansion. (For VA Students: 8, 16)
The AstroFrequency(s) for the day (strongest listed first)
16 (2*) Deep motivations and desires expressed as action
31 (2*) Embracing the mystery that we cannot know and thus being skeptical of simplistic answers given to life’s questions
8 (1*) Acting effectively to accomplish your Motivations & Drives
The Sabian Symbols of our Featured Planets: Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus >>> The uplifting message from the featured planet positions that shows the way through: You are aware of yourself as an integrated whole with three points of focus, spirit, masculine and feminine centers that give you the potential to move to any destination you choose. You are experiencing an overpowering compassion for the struggles of all life that enables you to quench the rage and destruction within you that is, otherwise, out of control. You are embracing the polarization of your basic essence into two modes of operation, the masculine and the feminine, the active and the receptive, and the need for the flow of love to link the polarities together. You are feeling a sense of yourself as a newly formed being in your own right. The more dysfunctional expression of this message: You are feeling disconnected from your wholeness and unable to respond to life with flexibility. You are getting caught up in your rage and giving up on getting it under control, as it continues to rampage until all your energy is expended and everything around you is destroyed. You are being isolated and separated from an important part of yourself, out of touch with either your ability to give to others or your ability to take care of yourself . You are reacting in fear and rejecting the new pattern rising up within you.

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 here, followed by a section on the Moods of the Moon}
At 9:04 PM the Sun enters Libra. The Sun in Libra for the next 30 days will tend to focus on the nature of your interactions with others. The Libran Sun wants to relate to others as equals and to respect others and to be respected by those around you. Encouraging this type of interaction will be beneficial to everyone.
Sep 22 – Sep 23 (exact Sep 23) the Sun in Libra is joining with Mercury in Libra. This vibe begins to influence us around 3:30 PM and is increasing in influence until it peaks at 2:50 AM on Sept 23 then decreasing fading out around 2:30 PM on Sept 23. This vibration is about clear mental awareness. This is the conjunction of Mercury with the Sun during the retrograde period. This encounter sets the characteristics of the mental pattern for the next few months.
Sept. 15 – Oct. 22 (closest position Oct. 4, never exact) Saturn in Aquarius is acting and agitating (square) with Uranus in Taurus. This vibe is a repeat of a strong pattern that we saw in the last year where there is a focus on doing your own thing and not taking into account the ideas or needs of the rest of the world. This is a very independent, sometimes rebellious, pattern that can tend to be disruptive.
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 12:00 AM, peaking at 2:00 AM, the Moon in Leo is sharing freely (sextile) with Mars in Gemini. In this 4 hr period you want to express your emotions in an active harmonious way sharing with others. This is a great time for group activities or meetings or for social sharing or for team sports.
Starting at 3:36 AM, peaking at 5:36 AM, the Moon in Leo is acting and agitating (square) with Uranus in Taurus. In this 4 hr period your emotions could be scattered all over the place with you feeling one thing one moment and another the next and you have the energy and desire to act on each of these things as it spontaneously surfaces. It is good to have a little bit of you watching this process and every once in a while saying, “I better wait on that one.”
Starting at 5:07 AM, peaking at 7:07 AM, the Moon in Leo is opposing Saturn in Aquarius. In this 4 hr period you are dealing with that which is especially significant or fundamental in your relationships with others. This is especially about evaluating whether your interactions are working to build your life in a way that supports and leads to your long-term goals. You can see clearly now what you need to change to accomplish 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.}
At 9:04 PM EDT, the Fall Equinox occurs as the Sun enters Libra. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the Winter Solstice on December 21. This Vibrational Pattern involves tuning into yourself and following what is within you rather than seeking to meet external expectations. There is a sense of skepticism about simple pat answers. This comes from a sense of a depth to life with a deep mystery at the very core of life, a mystery that cannot be reduced down to words.. The Sabian Symbol for the Fall Equinox is “An Ancient Pottery Bowl filled with Violets”. This is about basing your pattern on the foundation principles of life. You are encouraged to develop a delicate and beautiful essence that radiates love, peace, beauty and simplicity.
On September 17 the Third Quarter Moon occurred with the Moon in Gemini and the Sun in Virgo. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the next New Moon September 25. This Vibrational Pattern is about seeing the big picture of how the past has been influencing the present. There is a sense of a flow from the past to the present with potential emotional reactions that reverberate through the community based on past experiences. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A Flag at Half-Mast”. This is about learning to respond to the needs of others rather than being only absorbed in what you need and what affects you. The Symbol for the Moon is “A Man trimming Palms”. This presents the challenge of evaluating the growth and the changes within you and figuring out what is really enabling you to reach towards your goals and what is extraneous and needs to be removed.On September 10, the Full Moon occurred with the Moon in Pisces and the Sun in Virgo. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the next New Moon September 25. The vibrational pattern of this Full Moon is challenging. There is a focus on our dreams and visions and a challenge to bring the deep dreams out into the world. This is always challenging as well as being critically important. If we decide to act on these deep inner awarenesses it can change our lives for better or worse. And this energy is so compelling that we are more likely than not to take those actions. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “An Ouija Board”. This relates to seeking outside guidance to improve your understanding of deep levels of disturbed energy within you that you are seeking to release. You are warned that you need to evaluate the guidance you receive and see if it is correct. The Moon Symbols is “A Gigantic Tent”. This symbol opens you up to enable you to experience a greater reality that encompasses everything. You are encouraged to passionately share this inspiring vision with others.
On August 27, the New Moon occurred with the Sun and Moon in Virgo. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the next New Moon September 25. In this vibrational pattern there is a very strong emphasis on accomplishing your goals in ways that are comfortable and pleasing to those around you. There is an abundance of energy available to do this and a tendency to claim the freedom to operate in the moment spontaneously. At the same time there is an almost instinctive ability to operate in ways that will flow harmoniously in your environment. The Sabian Symbol for the New Moon is “A Man Dreaming of Fairies”. This is about using your imagination. It brings a tendency to see the deeper, invisible levels of the world and within yourself. There is the potential here to reintegrate some rejected aspects of yourself and your world. There is a warning here about using your imagination to escape from reality, which could mean losing touch with yourself and possibly getting caught up in delusions. The tendency with this New Moon is that it brings amazing potential if you will reintegrate the patterns you have rejected.
On May 16, the Full Moon Lunar Eclipse occurred with the Moon in Scorpio and the Sun in Taurus. This is the end of this eclipse season and this vibrational pattern will be influencing us until the next Eclipse Season starts on October 25, 2022. This eclipse is especially involved with Saturn seeking to focus on that which is essential and of long-term importance and to let go of passing feelings and actions that will not be remembered at a later time. This vibrational pattern involves deep inner work seeking to find the appropriate actions and includes a sense of not knowing and not being able to know all the answers. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A Spaniard serenading his Senorita” which calls for you to refocus the assertive/aggressive aspect of yourself, discovering the value of love and gentleness, and seeing the beauty within you and in others. The Moon Symbol is “Indians making Camp”. This symbol is about learning to operate in a new realm where you need to learn the rules for functioning in this place so that you respect the rights of everyone involved.
On April 30, the New Moon Solar Eclipse occurred with the Sun and Moon in Taurus. This is the start of this eclipse season and this vibrational pattern will be influencing us until the next Eclipse Season starts on October 25, 2022. This eclipse focuses on devotion to the beauty of the past with a sense of the importance of direct hands on experience seeking to evaluate what really needs to happen to properly honor the past in the present. The importance of actually taking action to make a more direct involved and beautiful world is especially emphasized. The Sabian Symbol for the eclipse is “Deep-Sea Divers” which is about exploring the deepest realms of your being finding the tremendous pressures that are operating within you calling you to open to new awarenesses of your talents and gifts. Take care to keep in touch with the reality of the world around you as you are probing the depths within you.
The Retrograde Diary: DEGREE CHANGES TODAY: Mercury, Mars >> Introductory Period of Mars: Turning back of Uranus: Reworking of Mercury, Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune: Turning forward of 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 “!”}
