The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry
Today, Tuesday (7/23/2024), the strongest vibrational influence comes from the Sun and Mars joining with Pluto (1*). The strongest vibrational energy pattern today needs to interact with others in a flowing harmonious way. There is a strong need to take action but this action needs to be supported by and comfortable for the other people who are involved in the actions with you. There is a sense here of being in a community and organizing your actions in that community around a particular person who is very significant for everyone who is involved as you all seek tangible achievements that you share in together. (For VA Students: 6, 12, 18)
This current vibrational energy pattern is seeing how everything is connected to everything else even when we can’t easily see the connections. There is a strong sense of the networks of ties that link everything together as we step back and view everything around us with a detached non-personal sort of perception.
The AstroFrequency(s) for the day (strongest listed first)
30 (3*) Commitment to your community seeking to creatively improve the operation of the community
6 (3*) Free-flowing interaction with others
The Sabian Symbols of our Featured Planets:, Sun, Mars, Pluto >>>
The uplifting message from the featured planet positions that shows the way through: You are having complicated, contradictory feelings within you especially insecurity, fear of disapproval and anxiety which you seek to deal with through a temporary retreat where you sort things out one at a time. You are perceiving hidden realms and your dual levels of operation when your emotions are stilled so that you can see past the usual emotional turmoil. You are studying the remaining shells of ancient spiritual groups, making a deeper connection to the stability underlying reality as you open up to varying perspectives on the truth. You are cutting back on the excesses of ego display, finding appropriate expressions of your innate sense of yourself. You are experiencing a formalized expression of graceful and exquisite patterns around you that gives you a beautiful model for organizing the gifts within you.
The more dysfunctional expression of this message: You are being overwhelmed by the intense contradictory pressure of insecurity, fear of disapproval and anxiety within you having it either burst out in the excessive response of an over-inflated ego or create a block within you so that you are unable to function, possibly temporarily losing consciousness. You are being unable to quiet the emotions and failing to become aware of the deeper patterns beneath them. You are dogmatically pushing your beliefs on others, believing that you know the one and only true way, seeking to force other people to follow your beliefs. You are creating an illusion that is not really you so that you can be accepted by others. You are using formalized, structured patterns to pretty up and rationalize that deeper patterns of distortion are appropriate and correct.

The 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 a couple of hours either side of the exact time of the aspect. The longer patterns are stronger and so are listed here, followed by a section on the Moods of the Moon}
Jul 22 – Jul 29 (exact Jul 25) the Sun in Leo is sharing freely (sextile) with Mars in Gemini. This vibe is increasing in influence until it peaks at 10:32 PM on July 25 then decreasing fading out around 2 PM on July 29. This vibrational energy pattern is about seeking to have tangible achievements that are comfortable for all the people involved.
Jul 22 – Jul 24 (exact Jul 23) the Sun in Leo is opposing Pluto in Aquarius. This vibe is increasing in influence until it peaks at 1:37 AM on July 23 then decreasing fading out around 2 AM on July 24.This vibrational energy pattern brings an intense sense of mission and purpose where you seek to develop your unique abilities and use them to shift how people relate around you.
Jul 20 – Jul 23 (exact Jul 21) the Sun in Cancer is flowing freely (trine) with Neptune in Pisces. This vibe is decreasing fading out around 12:30 AM on July 23. This vibrational energy pattern brings you in touch with your dreams and visions on a daily basis and you have a need to have experiences that are amazing, that feel larger than life.
Jul 20 – Jul 23 (exact Jul 21) Mars in Gemini is flowing freely (trine) with Pluto in Aquarius. This is decreasing fading out around 9 AM on July 23. This vibrational energy pattern is about an intense need to take actions that are flowing and work easily in your environment.
The Moods of the Moon
{The Moon patterns only last a short period of time. They impact our moods and feelings for around 4 hours, 2 hours each side of the exact position.}
Starting at 2:43 AM, peaking at 4:43 AM, the Moon in Aquarius is flowing freely (trine) with Jupiter in Gemini. In this 4 hr period there is a sense of emotional openness and expansion within you. This can feel either good or bad depending on what your general feeling at the time is but it will tend to be optimistic.
Starting at 1:46 AM, peaking at 3:46 AM, the Moon in Aquarius is acting and agitating (square) with Uranus in Taurus. In this 4 hr period your emotions could be scattered all over the place with you feeling one thing one moment and another the next moment and you have the energy and desire to act on each of these things as it spontaneously surfaces. It is good to have a little bit of you watching this process and every once in a while saying, “I better wait on that one.”
Starting at 3:58 AM, peaking at 5:58 AM, the Moon in Aquarius is opposing Mercury in Leo. In this 4 hr period the emotions and moods will tend to influence the mind during this time, as well as the mind having an influence on the mood and emotions. They will tend to take turns being dominant.
At 9:23 AM the Moon enters Pisces bringing a sense of the connections we all have with each other and with everything around us. A Pisces moon is very good at connecting things together that don’t look like they belong together, so use this 2 ½ days to reach out and connect with those that you thought you could never establish a relationship with, right now it might work.
Starting at 10:35 AM, peaking at 12:35 PM, the Moon in Pisces is acting and agitating (square) with Mars in Gemini. In this 4 hr period you may find yourself more prone to be emotionally worked up. Doing something active will use the energy in a constructive way. Take a walk even if it’s just around the block or down the hall, do some squats, run in place, anything that uses the excess energy that is floating around right now.
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.}
On July 21, the Full Moon occurred with the Moon in Capricorn and the Sun in Cancer. This pattern will be influencing us until the next New Moon on August 4, 2024. This vibrational energy pattern brings a gathering of complex energy patterns tied to our emotional feelings and our passions. There is a focus on following your dreams. This calls us to tune into ourselves and understand better what our dreams are. Then we need to interact with the world and see how we can reorganize our experiences to more closely reflect our dreams. There is a sense here of an organic flow of energy rising up out of us and interacting with the world. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A Daughter of the American Revolution”. This is about recognizing that you have a heritage that is fraught with problems and issues. This heritage has been seeking to control and limit you and your are seeking to free yourself from these forces so you can freely express who you truly are. The Symbol for the Moon is “A Secret Business Conference”. Here you are tuning into the true authority you carry within you and accepting your mandate to participate in the managing of the world’s hidden realities.
On July 5, the New Moon occurred with the Moon in Cancer and the Sun in Cancer. This pattern will be influencing us until the next New Moon on August 4, 2024. This vibrational energy pattern brings a subtle emphasis on tapping into the essence and foundation of the areas you are working in. The importance of accomplishing your goals in a way where you are taking into account the needs of the other people involved is highlighted. There is a potential for creative development of better patterns of operation in your communities as you seek to address the areas in your community where people are falling through the cracks. The Sabian Symbol for the New Moon is “A group of people who have overeaten and enjoyed it”. This is a reminder of the importance of working carefully and systematically in a group to test out new experiences and interactions taking one step at a time. The warning to to only move as fast as you can process your new awareness. You may have problems if you take on too much too quickly.
On June 20, the Summer Solstice occurred as the Sun enters Cancer. This pattern will be influencing us until the Fall Equinox on September 22, 2024. This vibrational energy pattern brings a potential for rebirth of the experience of beauty in our everyday life. There is a challenge to adjust and rebirth our dreams and visions. There is a strong sense of smooth flowing development and refinement of the inner self. This is a time to interact and explore on a deep inner level. This gives the potential for new patterns to form organically within you. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun Moon distance is “An Orangutan” which points to each of us sensing powerful primitive distortions deep within us. We are recognizing the need to refine and guide these forces into more mature expression. There is the possibility of distortion if you take for granted your right to do whatever you feel like in life without considering its effect on other people.
On April 8, the New Moon Solar Eclipse occurred with the Sun and Moon in Aries. This will be influencing us until the next Solar Eclipse on October 2, 2024. This vibrational energy pattern brings us into connection with each other. We understand more and more how the life experiences of others impact our own life experiences. There is a call to support others where they need support as we also respect the importance of each person fashioning their own life pattern. There is a challenge here to learn to work together harmoniously while still respecting each person’s individual experiences and understandings. The Sabian Symbol for the Solar Eclipse is “A Young Girl feeding Birds in Winter”. Here we are making a tentative connection into and expressing the nurturing love that is the core of this realm of manifestation. This love is always there in the depths, if we will allow ourselves to connect into it, no matter what our situation. There is a warning here about trying to manipulate others by controlling what they need that they do not have access to on their own.
On March 25, a Full Moon Lunar Eclipse occurred with the Moon in Libra and the Sun in Aries. This pattern will be influencing us until the next Lunar Eclipse on September 17, 2024. This vibrational energy pattern is especially focused on taking actions in ways that are compatible with the other people involved in and impacted by the actions. There is the potential here for sudden unexpected events to occur and for the results of one’s actions to have unexpected consequences. There is also an emphasis here of being able to get down to the true core patterns involved and to be able to see the real motives behind people’s actions. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A Square brightly lighted on one side”. This symbol is about identifying your destination point and sensing the path you need to take to reach it. The Symbol for the Moon is “The Ideals of a man abundantly crystallized”. This encourages you to work internally to solidify your ideals, forming a solid foundation from which you can relate to others effectively.
The Retrograde Diary: DEGREE CHANGES TODAY: Mercury >> Introductory Period for Mercury, Jupiter, Uranus: Turning Back of Saturn, Neptune: Reworking 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. Points of especially concentrated energy are marked with “!!!”}
