The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry*
Mercury is Stationary turning direct today at 12:49 PM EST
Yesterday and today, Tuesday (11/3/20) , the strongest vibrational influence comes from Mars joining with Neptune and Pluto (2*). This vibration is about recognizing the special essence within each person and seeking to support it and share with those around you. There is a commitment here to act from a sense of passion recognizing the spiritual essence in yourself and in those around you. This is combined with the Jupiter, Saturn, Pluto foundational pattern of this year to emphasize the importance of growth in your awareness in a step by step process throughout this year.
The Sabian Symbols of our Featured Planets: Mars, Neptune, Pluto
The uplifting message from the featured planet positions that shows the way through: You are connecting into the flow of spiritual inspiration within yourself, being flexible and open to that which you have not previously known or experienced. You are receiving recognition for having continued to work and struggle towards your goal despite all obstacles and defeats. You are entering into the process of transformative rebirth, experiencing a renewed faith in life that is triumphing over doubt, fear and loss. You are participating in the transfer of higher knowledge and wisdom, recognizing that the knowledge needs to be separated from the person who is providing it.
The most dysfunctional expression of this message: You are closing up and being caught in a cycle of negativity that limits your perceptions and shuts you off from others. You are strutting around seeking praise and acknowledgement for your actions, overvaluing yourself, seeking to manipulate others in order to gain rewards that you may not deserve. You are putting on a show, driven by a superficial craving for attention, pretending to joy while feeling lost and guilty and inadequate within yourself. You are claiming superior status and privileges based on your position and dogmatically insisting on your superior authority and achievements.

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}
Oct 30 – Nov 8 (exact Nov 1 and Nov 6) Mercury in Libra is acting and agitating (square) with Saturn in Capricorn. This vibe is decreasing until Mercury goes direct on Nov 3 then again increasing until it peaks a second time at 4:16 AM on November 6 before it fades out around 1 AM on November 8. This is a complex vibration created by Mercury changing directions in the middle of it. This is an analytical vibration that will evaluate everything from an objective viewpoint and do what needs to be done for the best long-term outcome.
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 10:56 AM, peaking at 12:56 PM, the Moon in Gemini is sharing freely (sextile) with Mars in Aries. This 4 hr period is about acting based on your emotional feelings and intuitions. This is usually an easy flow of energy that is shared with others. If there are build up feelings then this can be a smooth release of those feelings whatever they may be.
Starting at 3:42 PM, peaking at 5:42 PM, the Moon in Gemini is acting and agitating (square) with Neptune in Pisces. This 4 hr period has to do with the desire to act on your dreams and visions.
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 October 31 the Full Moon occurred with the Moon in Taurus and the Sun in Scorpio. This vibrational pattern will be influencing us for the next two weeks until the New Moon on November 14-15. This vibration brings sensitivity, creativity and awareness of your internal being with the ability to act based on your authentic self. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “Dental Work”. It refers to deep work within yourself where you remove any decay and blockage and you repair and fill in the pattern to enable your energy to work effectively. The Moon Symbol is “A Christmas tree decorated” which helps you to be reborn as you bring light into the dark areas within yourself.
On October 16 the Moon and Sun joined in Libra forming the New Moon. This vibrational pattern will be influencing us until the next New Moon on November 14-15. This New Moon is about the potential for action focused on the major pattern this year, the Jupiter, Saturn, Pluto interaction. This pattern is moving the whole world in a growth pattern of expanding our awareness growing in a controlled way into a world of greater connectedness where we recognize each person’s responsibility for themselves and your responsibility as a group to work together to build a better life for all of us. The Sabian Symbol for the New Moon is “A third wing on the left side of a butterfly”. This is about recognizing and facing our feelings of fragility as we go through changes that it is hard to understand. This is about a spiritual transformation that brings an expanded heart, greater capacity to nurture and greater sensitivity. The challenge is to be true to yourself but not to get caught in the trap of being different just for the sake of being different.
On September 22, the Sun enters Libra. This is the Fall Equinox when the days and nights are equal. This vibration will be influencing us until the Winter Solstice on December 21. This Vibrational Pattern calls us to look inside of ourselves and see who we really are and whether we are being true to ourselves. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A Butterfly made perfect by a dart through it” which involves recognizing that your personal understanding is limited and opening up to learn and flexibly relate to others and adjust based on how they are perceiving you and what they expect of you. The Moon Symbol is “A drowning man rescued”. This is about seeking help to better ground yourself and to take responsibility for your actions, learning how to be more effective.
The Eclipse Season was from June 4 through July 5 and the patterns of this season will be in effect at least until the next Eclipse Season starts on November 30. The Eclipses begin by helping us to recognize that there is something special within each of us and that it is important for each of us to communicate our ideas clearly recognizing that there is a give and take to life as we share with each other. It then reminded us that we need to be adaptable and realize that we are being called to a new orientation to life. Each of us need to face our self-centeredness and reorganize ourselves to more effectively respond to the demands of ourselves and our world. We need to develop a bigger focus that encompasses all of the universe recognizing that we are part of something bigger than ourselves while at the same time being open to ancient truths that may contain wisdom that will help us to be more aware and more effective.
The Retrograde Diary: DEGREE CHANGES: Mars, Mercury Stationary Direct
Reworking Patterns of Uranus: Turning Forward of Mercury, Mars, Neptune, Pluto: Resolution of Jupiter, Saturn
{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 “!”}
