The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry
The Strongest Vibration today comes from the Sun joining with Saturn and Pluto (1*). This is a significant shift in the weather from the last few days although Uranus and Pluto are still active under the surface pushing us each to do our own thing in our own way. There is a sense of needing something different today that brings a feeling of restlessness and dissatisfaction. This is especially focused on what is the real true and lasting expression of our essence and how can we show that in our lives on a daily basis. There is a strong sense here of needing to connect in with your deeper truth and shine it forth into the world on a daily basis. You may find yourself wanting to search deep inside yourself today to get more strongly in touch with your spirit and soul which will last beyond this life.
The AstroFrequency(s) for the day (in order of strength)
22 (0*) Dissatisfaction with current state, Restless Seeking of something different with others
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 a lot of days in a row and there are quick Moon patterns that just impact our mood for a couple of hours either side of their exact time. The longer patterns are stronger and so are listed first, followed by the Moods of the Moon}
Aug. 11 – 25 (exact Aug. 19) Jupiter in Scorpio is flowing freely (trine) with Neptune in Pisces. This is a magical focus on bringing your dreams into your life in a big way. Take some time today to tap into your dreams and find one thing that you can do today that will help bring your dreams into manifestation in your life. Be careful to keep straight what is real right now versus what you are dreaming about. It can be easy with this pattern to act out of a fantasy rather than from the reality of what is actually happening.
Aug. 1 – Sept. 21 (not exact) Saturn in Capricorn is flowing freely (trine) with Uranus in Taurus. This pattern is very similar to the longer Uranus and Pluto pattern above. This vibration is both focused long-term on what really lasts and spontaneous and impulsive in the moment at the same time. Since these two needs are contradictory, you get things like suddenly eliminating things from your life that you don’t think are meaningful in the long run. It is important to find ways to honor both your long-term interests and the need to be spontaneous in the moment. Recognize that both these needs are important and that they are present at the same time and that you need to make space in your life for both. Especially provide periods of time when you can be spontaneous and you will handle this better.
July 2 – Oct. 19 (exact Sept. 26) Uranus in Taurus is quiet and focused (septile) with Pluto in Capricorn. This pattern calls for focused or disciplined spontaneity. You may be feeling you are lacking spontaneity in your life and find yourself forcing yourself to be spontaneous. This is not easy and may generate some tension inside you. Any focused and spontaneous activity will help use and release this energy. Some examples are dance, group sports, tai chi, or martial arts. Also, a massage might help release built up tension.
The Moods of the Moon
{Remember that the quick Moon patterns that just impact our mood for a couple of hours either side of their exact time.}
The Moon in Virgo flows freely (trines) with Mars in Capricorn right after midnight around 12:38 AM. but this will be felt for a couple of hours before that. This is probably going to have your emotions and moods whooped up a bit, you will tend to focus on something you want to do and really get on with it. You may get upset if someone interferes at this time, you won’t want to be interrupted or blocked. The Moon enters Libra at 12:57 AM and stays here until Thursday. This brings a general vibration of sharing and camaraderie. You will feel the Moon in Libra square Saturn in Capricorn for a couple of hours before and after 5:55 AM. This is a time when you want to focus on what is really important in your life and take actions to support those things. This could involve thing like working on long-term projects or cleaning out the things that are not important. So this is a good time to clean up something that has been bothering you. The Moon and Venus join in a special sharing for a couple hours either side of 2:05 PM. This should bring some really good feelings and a focus on loving caring relationships. Several hours later the Moon in Libra has a shared flow (sextile) with Mercury in Leo around 10:09 PM. This brings a focus on thinking and communicating those thoughts, so writing down your thoughts, and possibly communicating what you are thinking about in a discussion or just sitting and thinking for a while would be profitable.
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 final chapter of this current Eclipse Cycle occurred with the Partial Solar Eclipse New Moon on August 11. This eclipse cycle will continue to influence us at least until the next eclipse cycle which begins on January 5, 2019. Today’s eclipse is especially concerned with our interactions with other people and perceiving the true motives and the true essence of the people we are encountering in our lives and in the patterns of unfolding of our world. The Sabian Symbol for this eclipse is “A houseboat party”. This has to do with whether your interactions with others are relaxed and accepting of who and what everyone is. You may find yourself in some situations in the next few months where you feel trapped and like you need to behave in ways that are not comfortable or appropriate for you. The message from this eclipse is to get back in touch with your higher universal awareness and sense what it is guiding you to do.
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 6, 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 Summer Solstice was on June 21 and this energy pattern will be influencing us until September 22 when the Fall Equinox occurs. The Summer Solstice is when the Sun enters Cancer and the Summer officially begins. With the temperatures we have been seeing a lot of places, it looks like the Summer has gotten off to a running start. This summer there is a strong emphasis on taking action that will benefit the community and bring peace and healing. People will not be willing to sacrifice their sense of what is right and ultimately meaningful but they will value operating in peaceful cooperative ways to achieve their goals. In the midst of all this it is important for each of us to take some time out to just be in the moment and relax and play in a creative way.
The Retrograde Diary
Uranus turning backwards, Mercury, Mars, Neptune, Pluto in Retrograde, Saturn turning forward, Jupiter in Final Resolution
{There are issues that each planet focuses on during the period leading up to its retrograde (apparent backwards movement) period. These issues are addressed again to be worked on during the retrograde period [in brackets] then a new understanding of these issues occurs during the post retrograde period.). This is not Vibrational Astrology, it 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: {July 8 [July 26 – Aug 19] Sept 2, 2018}
Aug. 13 – 16: (13-12 Leo) Reworking: Working on being able to move back and contemplate all that you have experienced getting it in perspective to increase your understanding and guide future actions, learning to stop being caught up in memory and disconnected from current reality
Mars: {May 13 [June 27 – Aug 27] Oct. 8}
Aug. 12 – 19: (30-29 Cap) Reworking: Working on being able to reach a level of expertise where you operate from true authority and are participating in and managing the hidden realities of the world, learning to stop failing to claim your true authority and blocking yourself off from awareness of the deeper realities around you
Jupiter {Dec. 12, 2017 [Mar. 10 – July 10] Oct. 6}
Aug. 13 – 22: (15-16 Sco) Resolution: Remember to recognize and openly and joyfully welcome an integration of the many aspects of yourself with a resulting awesome sense of wholeness that reaches out and includes others, learning to stop pretending to be happy for the sake of others while not being able to accept the needs and desires within you hiding your true feelings
Saturn {Jan. 10 [Apr. 17 – Sept. 6] Dec. 12}
Aug. 13 – Sept. 30: (3-2 Cap) Turning Forward: The Challenge is to open to new growth in areas where there has been misuse of authority, learning to stop refusing to grow and holding onto abusive patterns and misunderstandings
Uranus {Apr. 20 [Aug. 7 – Jan. 6, 2019] Apr. 23, 2019}
July 1 – Sept. 14: (2-3 Tau) Turning Back: The Issue is to move in a natural progression of steps, learning and growing and opening yourself to the experience of wonder and beauty, learning to stop getting fascinated by your vision and caught in that fantasy rather than doing the work to climb the steps and experience the reality
Neptune {Feb. 6 [June 18 – Nov. 25] Mar. 15, 2019}
Aug. 2 – Sept. 10: (16-15 Pis) Reworking: Working on being able to connect into the flow of spiritual inspiration within yourself being flexible and open to that which you have not previously known or experienced, learning to stop closing up and being caught in a cycle of negativity that limits your perceptions and shuts you off from others
Pluto {Dec. 31, 2017 [Apr. 22 – Sept. 30] Jan. 21, 2019}
July 13 – Aug. 29: (20-19 Cap) Reworking: Working on being able to be guided by hidden messages that may not be apparent to others that attune you to the spiritual realms, learning to stop fooling yourself and others as you rationalize your personal beliefs and attitudes as being divine messages that make you special and better than those around you
