The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry*
At 2:37 AM EDT today, November 1st, the First Quarter Moon occurs with the Moon in Aquarius square the Sun in Scorpio.
Today, Tuesday (11/01/2022), the strongest vibrational influence comes from the Sun joining with Mercury and Venus (1*). This vibrational energy starts within us and in our interactions with others and is going to be expanding in influence over the next week, then decreasing in influence but still being dominant for the first half of November. The emphasis is on your thinking processes and there is a desire for interaction with beautiful thoughts. This can be reading or writing or poetry. It can also be beautiful speeches that move you and connect in deeply. You are going to be attracted to these beautiful thoughts and are likely to find yourself being able to speak and write with more clarity and beauty yourself during this time period. Enjoy! (For VA Students: 1, 2)
The AstroFrequency(s) for the day (strongest listed first)
1 (1*) Doing things your own way, evaluating the ideas of others and only changing if you agree with them
The Sabian Symbols of our Featured Planets: Sun, Mercury, Venus >>> The uplifting message from the featured planet positions that shows the way through: You are going out into the rugged dangerous depths of yourself, seeking to break up the rigid structures within you that are keeping you from connecting into the gold of your true self. You are recognizing your worth and the worth of others, being able to make connections and relate to others based on everyone putting their best foot forward and following good manners and established codes of behavior. You are inventing experimental techniques that express your unique gifts and awarenesses, moving beyond established structures. The more dysfunctional expression of this message: You are refusing to explore the realms that have opened up within you fearing that you can’t handle what you find. You are feeling that you don’t fit in, devaluing yourself and feeling out of your depth, unwilling or unable to meet the expectation that you will follow good manners and established codes of behavior. You are making things up as you go along, operating in risky ways, without any basis in actual observation, refusing to consider the consequences of your actions.

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 here, followed by a section on the Moods of the Moon}
All of the two-planet patterns today involve the Moon and are described below.
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 2:37 AM EDT on November 1st, the First Quarter Moon occurs with the Moon in Aquarius square the Sun in Scorpio. See the Cyclic Patterns Diary for more information.
Starting at 5:04 AM, peaking at 7:04 AM, the Moon in Aquarius is acting and agitating (square) with Venus in Scorpio. This 4 hr period brings a desire to feel beautiful. You will probably be more aware of your appearance and the appearance of the world around you. You may be moved to make something around you look nicer.
Starting at 2:54 PM, peaking at 4:54 PM, 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 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 5:22 PM, peaking at 7:22 PM, the Moon in Aquarius is joining with Saturn in Aquarius. This 4 hr period calls for an evaluation of your emotional patterns to see whether you are reacting emotionally to things that do not really matter where you will not remember what upset you in an hour or a day. It is about learning to let go of emotional feelings that are not about significant long-term issues.
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, November 1st, the First Quarter Moon occurs at 2:37 AM EDT, with the Moon in Aquarius square the Sun in Scorpio. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the Full Moon on November 8. The Quarter Moon is focused in our interactions in community and is especially concerned about the people who are not doing well in our communities. There is a drive here to make changes that will help our communities work more effectively. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “Dental work”. This is an opportunity to drill out deep decay, filling in the holes, replacing missing parts, returning your structure to its proper functional form, and learning how you can continue to keep it in good shape. The challenge is to avoid digging in deeper and deeper causing more damage as you go by refusing to change your beliefs and behaviors in order to stop creating harm. The Sabian Symbol for the Moon is “A flag turned into an eagle”. This is an opportunity to express your true power, bringing your ideas into concrete expression, no longer worrying about proving yourself to others as you avoid being swept away by the power and influence of those around you, being caught up in their ideas.
On October 25 the New Moon Solar Eclipse occurred with the Sun and Moon in Scorpio. This is the start of this eclipse season and this vibrational pattern will be influencing us until the next Eclipse Season starts on April 20, 2023. This vibrational energy brings a sense of the importance of listening to the stories of others. There is a drive towards expanded action seeking to respond to the stories and the needs you encounter in the people around you. This involves a sense of reaching for the fundamental beauty in others that you can see more clearly at this time. The Sabian Symbol for the eclipse is “A house-raising”. This symbol is about being involved in building a new structure for yourself with the entire community generously gathering and harmoniously participating in the process according to their skills and abilities. This is a reminder that others help make our lives work right. Take care not to refuse the help of others because of a lack of trust or an excessive sense of independence related to fear of being controlled. Also be aware that you may have a belief that you do not deserve help or do not have the right to ask for help. This is your own issues. We all need help at times.
On September 22 the Fall Equinox occurs as the Sun enters Libra. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the Winter Solstice on December 21. This Vibrational Pattern involves tuning into yourself and following what is within you rather than seeking to meet external expectations. There is a sense of skepticism about simple pat answers. This comes from a sense of a depth to life with a deep mystery at the very core of life, a mystery that cannot be reduced down to words.. The Sabian Symbol for the Fall Equinox is “An Ancient Pottery Bowl filled with Violets”. This is about basing your pattern on the foundation principles of life. You are encouraged to develop a delicate and beautiful essence that radiates love, peace, beauty and simplicity.
The Retrograde Diary: NO DEGREE CHANGES TODAY >> Turning back of Mars: Reworking of Jupiter, Uranus: Turning forward of Saturn, Neptune, 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 “!”}
