The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry
The Full Moon Lunar Eclipse is at 5:38 PM EDT today July 16.
Yesterday and today, Tuesday (7/16/19), the strongest vibrational influence comes from Jupiter combined with Saturn and Uranus (1*). This vibe is about tuning into your own sense of what needs to happen and being flexible and spontaneous in doing whatever seems to be your personal unique sense of what to do in each situation. There is a sense here of expansion at a reasonable pace, so you may find that you get a greater sense of what your unique response in each given situation may be. Today you have an opportunity to more effectively become aware of your orientation to things getting an opportunity to experiment with bringing your unique personal style into your interactions. This is combined with a strong need to focus on things that have long term meaning and significance. And remember that everyone else may be doing the same thing, so be open to some unusual and unexpected experiences with others today.
The AstroFrequency(s) for the day (strongest listed first)
31 (4*) Embracing the mystery that we cannot know and thus skeptical of simplistic answers given to life’s questions
23 (4*) Focusing on one’s unique orientation to life and expressing that whatever the risks
2 (3*) Sharing or conflicting 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}
Jul 16 – Jul 18 (exact Jul 17) Venus in Cancer is opposing Saturn in Capricorn. This vibe begins to be felt around 8 PM and is increasing until it peaks at 1:34 AM tomorrow July 17. Your feelings of attachment to people and things are being tested under this vibration. You are evaluating whether this person or object has any long term significance or meaning for you and if it doesn’t you may be inclined to let it go.
The Moods of the Moon
{Remember that the quick Moon patterns impact our moods and feelings for a window of a couple of hours either side of their peak time.}
Starting at 10:42 PM yesterday, peaking at 12:42 AM right after midnight, the Moon in Capricorn is opposing Venus in Cancer. This 4 hr period is about sharing love and caring with others. This is a good time for social gatherings, or impromptu meetings with friends or loved ones.
Starting at 1:18 AM, peaking at 3:18 AM, the Moon in Capricorn is joining with Saturn in Capricorn. This 4 hr period brings a focus on very serious feeling and what feelings have long term significance and meaning.
Starting at 4:52 AM, peaking at 6:52 AM, the Moon in Capricorn is sharing freely (sextile) with Neptune in Pisces. This 4 hr period is about your dreams and the emotional feelings you have for having the life you dream of.
Starting at 11:16 AM, peaking at 1:16 PM, the Moon in Capricorn is joining with Pluto in Capricorn. This 4 hr period goes deep and taps into old patterns. Those old patterns could be triggered and result in you overreacting, if you are not aware of them.
At 5:38 PM, the Moon in Capricorn is opposing the Sun in Cancer. This is the Full Moon and a Lunar Eclipse. See the Cyclic Patterns Diary for a discussion of this energy pattern.
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.}
Today, July 16 is a Full Moon, Lunar Eclipse happening at 5:38 PM. This completes the current Eclipse period and will be felt until the next Eclipse cycle which begins on December 26, 2019. This eclipse shows a very intense need to focus on the emotional patterns in your relationships especially evaluating their long term significance. This next 5 month period is likely to be a time of evaluation and consideration of the meaning of your life and your actions and how you want the rest of your life to go. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A dark shadow or mantle thrown suddenly over the right shoulder”. This points to you feeling something overshadowing you calling you to open up to a greater awareness and learn to assume responsibility for using that awareness wisely with humility. The Moon Symbol is “An oriental rug dealer” which points to the importance of operating fairly and being real and genuine. There is a warning here about feeling like you are entitled to special privilege and seeking to gain an advantage over others by misrepresenting yourself or your services.
July 2 was a New Moon Solar Eclipse with the Sun and Moon in Cancer. This start a new Eclipse Cycle that will influence us for about 5 months until the December 26, 2019 Solar Eclipse. There is a internalized determination carried in this eclipse to work toward making your dreams a reality in your life and in the world. This is about committed focused thought processes that continue to analyze what is happening and take the steps to bring about a better world for each of us to live in. The Sabian Symbol for this New Moon Solar Eclipse is “A clown making grimaces”. This is about stepping back and getting the objectivity that will enable you to move more effectively towards your dreams recognizing that sometimes the reactions of others to you come from their problems and issues rather than from your actions. This is about acting from your true self rather than using a façade to cover up who you really are.
The Sun officially entered Cancer and Summer began on June 21. This is the Summer Solstice, the longest day of the year. This seasonal pattern will be influencing us until the Fall Equinox on September 23. The strong vibrations for this summer emphasize a sensitivity to the stories of those around us and a recognition of our responsibility for those in our communities who have more problems than we do. The base Sabian Symbol for Summer is “A furled and unfurled flag displayed from a vessel” which shows that Summer is a time for seeing more clearly who you really are. This can result in making a commitment to a new orientation or cause and giving up your old ways. If you do not connect in with the deep core of yourself you may feel unstable and very moody. The reaction we have to the challenges of this season is shown by the symbol “A big white dove, a message bearer”. This is about learning to solve your issues by receiving gentle messages from outside or inside yourself as you are opening to the spirit and becoming more clearly connected into your core. If you do not open up to these messages you may find yourself caught in a cycle of doubt and depression believing things will never improve.
The Retrograde Diary:
Turning Backward of Uranus, Neptune: Reworking Patterns of Mercury, Jupiter, Saturn, 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.}
