The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry
 
The First Quarter Moon is today at 5:26 PM EST
Today (2/12/19) is the second of three days in a row when Mars is joining with Saturn and Uranus (4*) to form the strongest vibrational pattern we will be feeling.  This vibration is focused in our ability to act.  There is a lot of energy available today.  The call is to balance a respect for what is important and meaningful long-term with the ability to respond right now in this moment in an appropriate way.  This is not easy.  It calls for a type of disciplined spontaneity that we all work on achieving.  Work today to be aware of the demands of each moment but keep the long term goals in the back of your mind.  Both are important.  Seek to build a pattern that is peaceful, spontaneous and meaningful.  That is the challenge.  Today this is combined with a sense of restlessness and a desire to go and experience something different that is more satisfying.  So open yourself up to unexpected changes of schedule and to impulses you may feel.  Follow your impulses as much as you can while being aware that you need to take care and be aware of what is going on around you.
 
The AstroFrequency(s) for the day (strongest listed first)
14 (3*) Silence, Internal focus shared with others
11 (2*) Dissatisfaction, Restless Seeking of something different

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}
 
Feb 11 – Feb 14 (exact Feb 13) Mars in Aries is joining with Uranus in Aries.  This vibrational pattern is increasing in strength all day today and it peaks at 1:20 AM tomorrow morning.  This is a high energy pattern that is very spontaneous.  This can make for some exceptionally beautiful and exciting experiences.  It can also erupt into anger if it is blocked or thwarted.  Give yourself space to do some spontaneous, impulsive things.  Go to a store you have always wondered about or play a game that requires a lot of energy and spontaneous responses to the situation.  You need to release this energy and not let it build up in you.
 
Jan 19 – Feb 14 (exact Jan 31) Saturn in Capricorn is sharing freely (sextile) with Neptune in Pisces. This vibration slowly decreases in influence until it fades out on Feb 14.  This vibration will be an underlying base note for the next few weeks. This is about wanting to know the truth that underlies the many illusions and deceptions that are a part of the world.  There is a strong desire to see the deeper reality that lies below the appearances of the world.  This almost takes on the sense of being a spiritual quest.
 
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 11:30 PM yesterday, peaking at 1:30 AM, the Moon in Taurus is sharing freely (sextile) with Neptune in Pisces.  This 4 hr period is a time of dreamy feeling when everything is a little soft around the edges.  Let yourself enjoy this gentle energy.  Just don’t make any hard practical decisions during this time.
Starting at 1:05 AM, peaking at 3:05 AM, the Moon in Taurus is flowing freely (trine) with Saturn in Capricorn.  This 4 hr period is a time for gently examining what is really important to you and sharing that with those you love.
Starting at 11:54 AM, peaking at 1:54 PM, the Moon in Taurus is flowing freely (trine) with Pluto in Capricorn.  This 4 hr period is a time when you may find deep feelings within you rising up to the surface.  This is an opportunity to embrace and adjust what is within you.
Starting at 3:26 PM, peaking at 5:26 PM, the Moon in Taurus is acting and agitating (square) with the Sun in Aquarius.  This is the First Quarter Moon and it will be discusses below in The Cyclic Pattern Diary.

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 5:26 PM today the First Quarter Moon occurs with the Moon in Taurus and the Sun in Aquarius.  This will be influencing us for the next week until the Full Moon on Feb 19.  The vibrational pattern contains a feeling of restless dissatisfaction with a strong desire to seek something new and different that will be more satisfying.  This is combined with a sense that there are things we cannot understand on a deeper level and a need to move into internal silence and quiet where we can be open and aware.  The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A man turning his back on his passions and teaching from his experience”.  This involves transforming your passions and letting go of inappropriate attachments.  You then teach others how to do the same.  The Sabian Symbol for the Moon is “A mounted Indian with calp locks” which involves recognizing your failures and the damage you have done and seeking to make amends.  There is a danger in these symbols of becoming insensitive, getting caught up in your pride and aggressively claiming what you desire without any concern for the effect your behavior has on others. The challenge is to let go of attachment to ego based passions.
 
On Feb 4 the Sun and Moon in Aquarius joined together to start a new Moon Cycle that will last for 29 days.  There is an emphasis on Mercury on this New Moon so reason and communication are going to be focused during the next month.  The Sabian Symbol for both the Sun and Moon is “A big business man at his desk” .  This focuses on how you conduct your business.  Do you balance your awareness of your responsibility to others with your need to make a profit?  Or do you constantly seek to further your own ends at the expense of others while seeking to control everyone and everything around you?

The Eclipse pattern for the next 5 months focuses on how we use our power and whether our actions are sustainable.  We are reminded that there are different perspectives on the truth and we need to reach down to a deeper level that brings a truer, clearer awareness.  The dangers of an over inflated ego are especially focused with a reminder of the importance of stepping back for each situation and looking at what is really important.  The next eclipse cycle will begin on July 2, 2019.
 
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 Retrograde Diary:
Introductory Contact for Jupiter, Saturn, Pluto: Turning Forward of Uranus: Final Resolution of Neptune
{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.}

Jupiter {Jan 12, 2019 [Apr 11 – !Jun 10! – Aug 11] Nov 5} 14 – 24 Sagittarius
Feb. 8 – 14:  (19-20 Sag) Introductory:  Are you able to directly cut through the frozen patterns within the self releasing underlying emotions and feelings facing and overcoming issues before they become disasters, learning to stop being caught in frozen patterns being content to endure  whatever may come, burying any sense of hurt, insult or distress hoping everything will work out well without doing anything to create a better future

Saturn {Jan 22, 2019 [Apr 29 – !Jul 9! – Sep 18] Dec 24} 13 – 20 Capricorn
Feb. 10 – 20:  (16-17 Cap) Introductory:  Are you able to remove yourself from the control or power of others and covertly open yourself to greater contact with what is around you, learning to stop suppressing your natural instincts based on fear of the reactions of others

Feb. 6 – Mar. 6:  (29-30 Ari) Resolution:  Remember to recognize that you operate within a bounded, limited sphere of activity inter-linked with a particular group of people within a greater realm, learning to stop defining your immediate sphere (the duck pond) as all that is important and becoming provincially focused on the needs of your small group.

Neptune {Feb. 6 [June 18 – Nov. 25] Mar. 15, 2019} 13 – 16 Pisces
Feb. 3 – Mar. 2:  (15-16 Pis) Resolution:  Remember 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

Jan. 12 – Feb. 12:  (21-22 Cap) Introductory:  Are you able to gracefully accept that you have been defeated in your attempts to reach your goal and learning the lessons of your experiences transforming setbacks into accomplishments, as you stop focusing on your losses and limitations accepting the worst as inevitable and surrendering when you could have prevailed or refusing to acknowledge any limitations or issues of your own and turning a minor defeat into a major disaster
