The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry*

Today, Tuesday (05/02/2023), the strongest vibrational influence comes from the Venus joining with Uranus and Pluto (3*). This vibrational pattern is exploring and interaction in an organic pattern share with others. This may be about playing with others. There is also the likelihood that you are going to discover something important in your play and exploration and take action on it. There is a sense of attraction to the beauty you find around you and an intense need to have the freedom to respond as feels right to you. One expression of this is music and dance. If you are feeling restless and antsy experiencing music and especially giving yourself an opportunity to dance will help. You are likely to respond to the rhythm and find it helps settle you down. (For VA Students: 10, 20, 30)

The Sabian Symbols of our Featured Planets: Venus, Uranus, Pluto >>> The uplifting message from the featured planet positions that shows the way through: 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. You are feeling a sense of yourself as a newly formed being in your own right.  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. The more dysfunctional expression of this message: 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. You are reacting in fear and rejecting the new pattern rising up within you. 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.

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}

May 1 – May 2 (exact May  1) the Sun in Taurus is joining with Mercury in Taurus. This vibe is decreasing fading out around 10:30 AM. This vibrational pattern works in our minds bringing a sense of organic growth in our ideas coming from exploration with the world around us. There is a new potential here that is evolving within us.

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.}

At 2:09 AM the Moon enters Libra.  The Moon in Libra for the next 2 ½ days will tend to focus on the nature of your interactions with others.  The Libran Moon wants to relate to others as equals and to respect others and to be respected by those around you.  Encouraging this type of interaction will be beneficial to everyone.

Starting at 12:51 AM, peaking at 2:51 AM, the Moon in Libra is flowing freely (trine) with Pluto in Aquarius. In this 4 hr period deep feelings within you that you have buried could affect your mood. Be aware that you may be reacting to the past rather than the present. Ask yourself if you have felt this way in the past and when and with whom.  Be prepared to walk away from a situation if you get triggered.

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 April 27 the First Quarter Moon occurred with the Sun in Taurus and the Moon in Leo. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the Full Moon on May 5. This energy concentration focuses on seeking to reach deep into the fundamental spiritual truths that underlie this world we live in and to understand ourselves and our world better because of these deep connections. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A Sleigh without Snow” which tunes into the unfolding of future possibilities and works on developing the skills and tools needed to meet future situations. The Moon Symbol is “A Bolshevic Propagandist”. This involves tearing down the status quo in order to make space for changes that can improve people’s lives. The challenge is to learn to let go and reach out to embrace new possibilities.

On April 20 the New Moon a Solar Eclipse occurred with the Sun and the Moon in Aries. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the next Solar Eclipse on October 14. This eclipse in Aries emphasizes our connection with ourselves and encourages you to find a way to do what you feel called to do deep within you. There is a focus on interacting with the world and exploring whatever we are drawn to. This process can be very creative. And with this vibration it leads to taking actions based on your discoveries. The Sabian Symbol for this eclipse is “A Duck Pond and its Brood”. This is about recognizing that you are operating within a bounded,limited sphere of activity where you are inter-linked with a particular group of people. It is important to realize that you are interconnected with people in a larger realm and to realize that you need to take into account this larger realm rather than just focusing on the needs of your group.

On March 20 the Spring Equinox occurred as the Sun enters Aries. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the Summer Solstice on June 21. This is the balancing point of the year when the days and nights are of equal length. This year’s Spring Equinox brings a strong feeling of needing to have your ideas be exceprtional and amazing. The vibration for Spring is deeply involved in sharing other people’s stories and there is a tendency to act based on the things you have learned from others to seek to make the lives of those around you better. The Sabian Symbol for the distance from the Sun to the Moon is “A master instructing his pupil. This is about participating in the transfer of higher knowledge and wisdom, being open to receiving deep insights from unexpected places. This energy becomes distorted if you claim a superior status and special privileges based on your position. This is about recognizing the worth and authority of each person.

The Retrograde Diary: DEGREE CHANGES TODAY: Mercury >> Introductory phase of Saturn, Neptune: Turning Backward of Pluto: Reworking of Mercury: Resolution of 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 “!”}
