The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry
Today, Tuesday (5/13/2025), the strongest vibrational influence comes from Mercury and Mars joining with Jupiter (1*). This vibrational energy pattern is about interacting with the world around you and exploring what you are attracted to in an easy flow. You will be oriented towards supporting and enhancing the community you are a part of. You are studying and learning how to work more effectively, learning how to take big actions as you see the big picture more clearly. (For VA Students: 15, 30)
This vibrational energy pattern is better and more effectively implemented by connecting together things and concepts that do not seem to be connected. There is a strong need to establish a safe space where everyone can be themselves without expectations and work on tuning into universal patterns as a guide to their actions here on earth.
The AstroFrequency(s) for the day (strongest listed first)
23 (1*) Taking the risk of following your personal Intuition.
The Sabian Symbols of our Featured Planets: Mercury, Mars, Jupiter >>
The uplifting message from the featured planet positions that shows the way through: You are building a bridge across the abyss to connect with the next level of awareness. You are moving back, contemplating all that you have experienced, getting it in perspective and, thus, increasing your understanding and finding guidance for future actions. You are experiencing love that recognizes your alienation and embraces it; reaching across the abyss to affirm you. You are working to guide the tumultuous growth within you in order to develop a beautiful, healthy structure, (this part is healthy, this is twisted and distorted and needs to be removed) even if it means you feel more exposed and vulnerable.
The more dysfunctional expression of this message: You are refusing to do the work to reach out and connect with a greater level of awareness. You are being caught up in memory and disconnected from current reality. You are rejecting the love being offered; as you continue to focus on your separateness, alienation and loneliness. You are working routinely on superficial appearances without knowing when to stop, and thus leaving a mess, where you’re neglecting your deeper needs for nourishment and love.

25 Gemini = Jupiter [A man trimming palms] You are working to guide the tumultuous growth within you in order to develop a beautiful, healthy structure, (this part is healthy, this is twisted and distorted and needs to be removed) even if it means you feel more exposed and vulnerable and/or you are working routinely on superficial appearances without knowing when to stop, and thus leaving a mess, where you’re neglecting your deeper needs for nourishment and love
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 o fthe aspect. The longer patterns are stronger and so are listed here, followed by a section on the Moods of the Moon}.
May 12 – May 13 (exact May 12) Mercury in Taurus is acting and agitating (square) with Pluto in Aquarius. This energy is decreasing fading out around 3 AM on May 13. This vibrational energy pattern is focused on taking action based on ideas and connections between ideas that you are obsessed with.
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 8:35 PM yesterday, peaking at 10:35 PM yesterday , the Moon in Scorpio is opposing Uranus in Taurus. You may be feeling pretty independent right now and more touchy about other people being in control of what you are doing. You will have a tendency to react. Right now you want to do what you feel like doing right this moment and you don’t want to worry about what other people feel about it. Remember other people are feeling the same way and give them the same space you are needing at the moment.
Starting at 12:37 AM, peaking at 2:37 AM, the Moon in Scorpio is flowing freely (trine) with Saturn in Pisces. This 4 hr period stimulates an internal awareness of the patterns that are working for your long term benefit and those that are undermining your goals. It is easier to shift at this time to a more effective pattern that supports your goals.
At 4:34 AM, the Moon enters Sagittarius. The Moon in Sagittarius brings exuberant feelings and a desire to explore your external world and your internal world. This 2 ½ days is a great time to explore someplace you have never been or to learn something new that you have been wondering about.
Starting at 5:29 AM, peaking at 7:29 AM, the Moon in Sagittarius is flowing freely (trine) with Neptune in Aries. This 4 hr period takes you into your dreams, they are living inside you and you are feeling them. You may find yourself daydreaming more than usual. You can use this time to get deeply in touch with your dreams and draw inspiration from them to help you make them more real.
Starting at 10:11 AM, peaking at 12:11 PM, the Moon in Sagittarius is sharing freely (sextile) with Pluto in Aquarius. In this 4 hr period there is an easier connection into deeply buried feelings than at other times. There is an opportunity here to share these deep levels with your friends and to be open to them sharing their deep feelings with you. This exchange can sometimes have a healing quality and reduce the pain within you and your friends.
Starting at 8:48 PM, peaking at 10:48 PM, the Moon in Sagittarius is flowing freely (trine) with Venus in Aries This 4 hr period brings a very nice flow of love and good feelings. This can be a special time to share with those you care about. .
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 May 12, the Full Moon occurred with the Moon in Scorpio and the Sun in Taurus. This Vibrational Pattern will be influencing us until the next New Moon on May 26, 2025. This vibrational energy pattern is very much focused on being in the moment and responding spontaneously in the moment. There may be an unexpected surprise occurring at this time. There is an awareness that everyone is a unique valuable individual and a focus on helping each person connect into their true gifts and purpose. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A Jewelry Shop” which is about you beginning to sense that you are one of the jewels, a part of the divine awareness. You can vaguely sense a higher purpose, a distant potential. The Symbol for the Moon is “A Bunny metamorphosed into a Fairy”. This is about experiencing the metamorphosis of aspects of the ordinary reality around you into their wondrous, magical, spiritual essence and starting to develop a greater awareness of this expanded realm.
On April 27, the New Moon occurred with the Moon and Sun in Taurus. This Vibrational Pattern will be influencing us until the next New Moon on May 26, 2025. This vibrational energy pattern has you doing what you decide to do internally with no regard for the opinions of others. This can be risky. There is a sense of compulsive action that drives you whether it makes sense or not. There is a possibility of moving beyond self driven action into a form of exploration and interaction with that which you are attracted to that lets go of the drive to accomplish something and instead, just explores for the sake of exploration. The Sabian Symbol for the New Moon is “A Sleigh without Snow”. This is about being aware of the unfolding of future possibilities and developing the skills and tools needed to meet those possible future situations. The alternative is to accept your current limitations, get caught up in your frustrations and be unable to move beyond them.
On March 29, the New Moon Solar Eclipse occurred with the Sun and Moon in Aries. This Vibrational Pattern will be influencing us until the next New Moon Solar Eclipse on September 21, 2025. This vibrational energy pattern brings a sense of dissatisfaction and a restless searching that is reaching out to find something more satisfactory. There is a sense of connecting into another level of awareness that is idealistic and visionary. This awareness can either open you up to amazing deep spiritual truths or bring a sense of confusion and deceit and betrayal that needs to be penetrated to get to the truths underneath it. The Sabian Symbol for the New Moon Solar Eclipse is “A False Call unheard in attention to Immediate Service”. This is about totally focusing on the immediate project or development in which you’re engaged, ignoring all distractions, operating from a state of personal completion and fulfillment. Remaining focused at this time enables you to pursue the opportunities available to you.
On March 20, the Spring Equinox occurred with the Sun entering Aries. This Vibrational Pattern will be influencing us until the Summer Solstice on June 20, 2025. This vibrational energy pattern is focused on our dreams and whether we are seeing the potential for them to become a part of our everyday life. Part of this is tapping into ourselves and being clear what kinds of dreams are speaking to us. Then comes being willing to act on those dreams and express them. This means taking risks, putting yourself out there. Remember you cannot succeed without taking the risk of failing. Count each failure as a step toward success. The Sun-Moon angle for the Spring Equinox is the Sabian Symbol “A Woman and two Men on a bit of sunlit land facing south”. This is about learning to be flexible and open. There is the potential here to see clearly how you can make appropriate choices to act either in the realm of Spirit or the realm of Matter as appropriate. You may discover competing needs within you. If you disconnect from that which is around you and isolate yourself you may experience a devastating sense of estrangement.
On March 14, the Full Moon Lunar Eclipse occurred with the Moon in Virgo and the Sun in Pisces. This pattern will be influencing us until the next Full Moon Lunar Eclipse on September 7, 2025. This vibrational energy pattern helps us connect into what we really feel deep inside of us. It encourages us to be true to those internal feelings. This can involve letting go of some emotional feelings that do not really serve us. There is a strong focus on working with others helping them to connect into the deep patterns within them that show who they really are. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “An Inhabited Island” which is about you truly 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. Take care to not be putting restrictive boundaries between yourself and those around you and focus only on yourself feeling alienated, deserted and alone. The Moon Symbol is “Mary and her little Lamb”, which is about loving yourself and those around you, operating based on love, kindness and friendship for mutual support, while maintaining your boundaries and your sense of self-integrity. There is a danger here of you or the other person becoming overly dependent on the other.
The Retrograde Diary: DEGREE CHANGES TODAY: Venus >> Introductory Period of Saturn, Neptune: Turning Back of Pluto: Resolution of Venus, Uranus {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 “!!!”}
