The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry
 
Today (12/18/18) the strongest vibration influencing us comes from Venus, Jupiter and Pluto (0*).  This is a somewhat more low key day with a focus on sensing your special qualities and the special qualities of the people around you.  There is a sense of beauty that is growing stronger within you coming up from deep in the past.  It is as if you are sensing a deep beauty within yourself and others and responding to that unique radiance with joy and love.  Today it is especially important that you share with others how you feel about them and especially the ways that they are special to you.
 
The AstroFrequency(s) for the day (strongest listed first)
17 (0*) Empathic participation in the experiences of others like acting
28 (0*) Action within or from silence and an Internal focus
 
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}
 
Dec 15 – Dec 18 (exact Dec 17) Mars in Pisces is sharing freely (sextile) with Pluto in Capricorn.  This vibration slowly decreases in influence fading out at about 3 PM.  This vibe brings an intense need to act on deeply held convictions within you.  You feel impelled to express yourself wanting to act in ways that will have a positive impact on those around you and on the world.  This vibe will focus your energy in action and you are going to act even if some people get upset at you.
 
The Moods of the Moon
{Remember that the quick Moon patterns that impact our moods and feelings for a window of a couple of hours either side of their listed time.}
 
>Starting at 12:21 AM, peaking at 2:21 AM, the Moon in Aries is joining with Uranus in Aries.  This is a time when you may experience strong impulsive feelings leading you to act independently of others.  This is an unpredictable impulsive energy that has some potential to be volatile.  If this is your sleep time, you may feel restless and have some difficulty sleeping.  It is better to avoid confrontive situations at this time.
>At 4:37 AM the Moon enters Taurus and for the next 2 ½ days you feel more like you are working with the world around you with everything evolving in its own way.  There is a lot more patience here and a sense of life unfolding as it should with a sense that you and everything around you change in the ways that are natural and proper.
>Starting at 8:27 PM, peaking at 10:27 PM, the Moon in Taurus is flowing freely (trine) with Saturn in Capricorn.  This brings a sense of what is true and real and of importance long term.  There is a tendency at this time to eliminate things from your life that do not seem so important right now.  This is a good time to clean up things lying around.
>Starting at 11:54 PM, peaking at 1:54 AM after midnight, the Moon in Taurus is opposing Venus in Scorpio.  This is a nice energy for sharing time with your loved ones.  There is a sweet sense of beauty and love.  Enjoy!
 
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 First Quarter Moon was on Dec 15 with the Moon in Pisces acting and agitating (square) to the Sun in Sagittarius.  This pattern will influence you until the Full Moon on Dec 22.  There is a sense here of being involved in the lives of those around you.  This is combined with a need to take action.  The Sabian symbol for the Sun is “A bluebird standing at the door of the house”. This speaks to the importance of recognizing your worth and accepting the blessing and happiness you are being offered.  The Moon symbol “An inhabited island” shows that you do this by grounding within yourself in the essence of yourself, recognizing your boundaries and empowering yourself while learning how to balance your needs against the needs of those around you.  Thus you deal with your needs and are responsive to the needs of those around you recognizing that we are all in this together.
 
The New Moon was on Dec 7 with the Sun and Moon joining in Sagittarius.  This pattern will be influencing you until the next New Moon, a solar eclipse on Jan 5.  The core energy in this New Moon and for this entire Lunar Month is a sense of restlessness and dissatisfaction.  Everything is out of balance and not at all like you have dreamed it would be.  The challenge of this New Moon is shown in its Sabian symbol, “Sea gulls watching a ship”.  This is about the give and take of life as you act to meet your needs but let go of the things you no longer need so that they can help others.  It is important to go ahead and act as you need to and not get caught in an illusion of helplessness and dependency on others to meet your needs.
 
The Fall Equinox was on Sept. 22 and will be a vibrational influence in our lives until the Winter Solstice on Dec. 21.  This is when the Sun enters Libra and day and night are of equal length.  This is the transition into the half of the year when the nights are longer than the days.  The Fall Equinox pattern will continue to influence us until the Winter Solstice on Dec. 21.  This fall there is a focus on interacting in a focused way with others in teams with common goals.  There is also a desire to be guided in your actions by someone you respect who serves as a teacher or coach.  You will tend to be very mentally sensitive and responsive and torn between your sense of responsibility and your desire to express yourself in your own way.  The Sabian symbol for the Moon is “A cross lying on rocks”.  This is about true awakening and the painful process of transcending the barriers within you that block that awakening.  In the process of awakening you may feel like your life is ending if you do not realize that this is a transition phase into a greater awareness once you disconnect from the beliefs that are blocking your awakening.
 
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 Retrograde Diary: Check out changes today:  DEGREE CHANGES: Mercury
Turning Forward of Uranus, Neptune: Final Resolution of Mercury, 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.}
 
!!!Mercury: {Oct 28 [Nov 17 – Dec 6] Dec 24} 27 Scorpio – 13 Sagittarius
Dec. 18 – 19:  (6-7 Sag) Resolution:  Remember to open to the opportunity to experience love overwhelming the ego calling on you to refine and alter yourself through compassion and greater insight, learning to stop maintaining your barriers and defenses for fear of pain or rejecting relationship for fear of losing your independence or being to shy and insecure to take the initiative to personally relate to others
 
Saturn {Jan. 10 [Apr. 17 – Sept. 6] Dec. 12} 2 – 9 Capricorn
Dec. 11 – 20:  (9-10 Cap) Resolution:  Remember to face your fears and move beyond superstition to recognize and embrace your common linkages with all creatures in the world, even embracing and nurturing those aspects of yourself that feel like burdens or curses, learning to reach out beyond yourself as you release your fear of getting close to that which is different from yourself as well as your fear of getting hurt through intimacy
 
Uranus {Apr. 20 [Aug. 7 – Jan. 6, 2019] Apr. 23, 2019} 28 Aries – 2 Taurus
Dec. 6, 2018 – Feb. 6, 2019:  (29-28 Ari) Turning Forward:  The Challenge is to experience the wonder of who you are as a part of all that is and humbly open to the love and affirmation of the divine, learning to stop blocking off awareness of your connection with everything around you that comes from operating out of personal insecurity and fear
 
Neptune {Feb. 6 [June 18 – Nov. 25] Mar. 15, 2019} 13 – 16 Pisces
Oct. 22 – Dec. 27, 2018:  (14-13 Pis) Turning Forward:  The Challenge is to radiate grace, beauty, and intelligence as you experience the presence of a deeply receptive awareness within you that contains an expanded awareness of, love for, and respect of all of the manifestations of life, learning to stop getting caught up in the superficial trappings of elegance without developing a truly elegant internal awareness
 
Pluto {Dec. 31, 2017 [Apr. 22 – Sept. 30] Jan. 21, 2019} 18 – 21 Capricorn
