The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry
 
Today (12/25/18) and tomorrow the strongest vibration is coming from Mars joining with Uranus and Pluto (2*).  There is a sense of dissatisfaction and restlessness.  This is combined with a desire for the freedom to act spontaneously in the moment in whatever way you want.  You want freedom and you want to share freedom with others.  If you are getting together with others to celebrate today, allow for some freedom in the process, let things be spontaneous and relatively unstructured.  Encourage people to take walks together around the area and explore, or play some kind of game that calls for spontaneous responses from people.  Today is a day when people need a lot of space to be themselves as they share with others.
 
The AstroFrequency(s) for the day (strongest listed first)
22 (5*) 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 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 24 – Dec 25 (exact Dec 24) Mercury in Sagittarius is acting and agitating (square) with Neptune in Pisces.  This vibrational pattern is decreasing in influence until it fades at about 1 PM.  This brings a tendency to look at your dreams and visions and how you want to change your life.  What actions can you take to make a difference?  You may even think about moving to a different place where you think you can more effectively realize your dreams.
 
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 2:44 AM, peaking at 4:44 AM, the Moon in Leo is flowing freely (trine) with Jupiter in Sagittarius.  This brings a sense of emotional expansion with your feelings being a bit bigger than life.  You may be prone to exaggerate whatever feelings you are having.  This could bring some interesting dreams.  Have your notebook by your bed where you can write them down as soon as you wake up.
 
Starting at 10:06 AM, peaking at 12:06 PM, the Moon in Leo is flowing freely (trine) with Mercury in Sagittarius.  You may find your mind is working very well this morning and is in harmony with your emotional feelings and moods.
 
Starting at 2:37 PM, peaking at 4:37 PM, the Moon in Leo is acting and agitating (square) with Venus in Scorpio.  This is a good time to share with those you love in some kind of active project doing something you enjoy together.  You could play a game or go to a movie.  This is not a good time for close intimate conversations as your feelings maybe easily unsettled at this time.
 
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 Full Moon was on Dec 22 with the Sun in Capricorn opposing the Moon in Cancer. This pattern will be influencing you until the next New Moon which is a partial solar eclipse on Jan 5, 2019. This occurs about 18 hours after the Winter Solstice with the Sun still in 0 degrees of Capricorn.  Thus a lot of things are going to come to fullness and be revealed this winter.  The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “An Indian chief demanding recognition” which addresses whether you operate from a natural inner authority, or whether you have an overinflated view of yourself that demands recognition and lives in a world of power trips”.  The symbol for the Moon is “A furled and unfurled flag displayed from a vessel”.  This relates to making a commitment to a new orientation and giving up your old ways as you get in touch with who you are.  The danger is that if you cannot tap into the deeper stability of your core self, you will be at the mercy of your moods constantly changing your allegiances and behaviors.
 
On Dec 21, 2018, the Sun entered Capricorn.  This is the Winter Solstice and the official beginning of Winter.  This pattern will be influencing us until the Spring Equinox on Mar 20, 2019.  The theme of the Winter is to step back and look at the big picture while working with others in shared interchanges.  The Sabian Symbol for the Moon is “A large archaic volume”.  This is about looking at ancient beliefs and patterns and evaluating their effectiveness and relevance for today, then proceeding to change or release patterns that no longer work.  It warns about the dangers getting caught in traditional patterns and viewing them as rules failing to understand their purpose in the past and how that may fit or not fit in today’s world.
 
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 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 5, 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: No Changes Today
Turning Forward of Uranus, Neptune: Final Resolution 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.}
 
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
Dec. 13, 2018 – Jan. 12, 2019:  (20-21 Cap) Resolution:  Remember to realize that you cannot accomplish your goals by yourself and ally yourself with others so you can reach a common goal together, learning to stop refusing to work together cooperatively with other people and to trust something beyond yourself
