The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry
Today, Tuesday (09/26/2023),the strongest vibrational influence comes from Mercury and Mars joining with Pluto (1*). The strongest vibrational pattern today is restless and dissatisfied. It is seeking a better more harmonious world to live in and is constantly reaching out further and further. This is about an intense need to study and learn always knowing there is more to learn. There is a need to take action using the new ideas you are learning. You may well find that this works better if you are sharing with one or more other people. So look up something you have always wanted to know and see if there is a way you can act on that information. (For VA Students: 11, 22)
The AstroFrequency(s) for the day (strongest listed first)
22 (7*) Restless, Impatience shared with others, May feel stifled by others
The Sabian Symbols of our Featured Planets: Mercury, Mars, Pluto >>>
The uplifting message from the featured planet positions that shows the way through:
You are seeking to release the deep levels of disturbed energy within you by seeking outside guidance to improve your understanding, then evaluating that guidance seeking to sort out whether it is really relevant to you and will actually work in your situation. You are digging deep into the patterns, history and traditions of the past to find the forces that are controlling current beliefs and behaviors, forces that are hidden deep below the surface; evaluating the true relevance of those ancient patterns in the present; being willing to revise those patterns as appropriate. You are entering into more profound levels of spiritual awareness, recognizing the spiritual messages in all that is around you, seeking to sort true messages from the surrounding noise as you recognize the limitations of your current experiences.
The more dysfunctional expression of this message:
You are blindly getting caught up in superstition and accepting whatever you’re told, failing to take responsibility for directing your own life. You are holding onto old patterns, behaviors and rituals as being the only tried and true mode of operation, even when those patterns are harmful to yourself and others. You are being caught up in much busyness without any sense of organization within a confined space; pretending you’re free.

20 Libra = Mars [A Jewish rabbi] You are digging deep into the patterns, history and traditions of the past to find the forces that are controlling current beliefs and behaviors, forces that are hidden deep below the surface; evaluating the true relevance of those ancient patterns in the present; being willing to revise those patterns as appropriate and/or you are holding onto old patterns, behaviors and rituals as being the only tried and true mode of operation, even when those patterns are harmful to yourself and others

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}
Sep 24 – Sep 29 (not exact, closest Sep 27) Venus in Leo is sharing freely (sextile) with Mars in Libra. This vibe is increasing in influence reaching its closest distance on Sept. 27 then decreasing fading out around 11 AM on Sept 29. This vibration involves interacting harmoniously with others in very direct ways and engaging in direct relationship to the natural world round you. There is a desire to act in ways that bring more beauty into the world.
Sep 24 – Sep 26 (exact Sep 25) Mercury in Virgo is flowing freely (trine) with Jupiter in Taurus. This vibe is decreasing fading out around 1 AM. This vibration brings an ability to easily see the big picture stepping back and getting a broader perspective on your experiences.
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 1:12 AM, peaking at 3:12 AM, the Moon in Aquarius is flowing freely (trine) with Mars in Libra. This 4 hr period is probably going to have your emotions and moods whooped up a bit, you will tend to focus on something you want to do and really get on with it. You may get upset if someone interferes at this time, you won’t want to be interrupted or blocked.
Starting at 2:47 AM, peaking at 4:47 AM, the Moon in Aquarius is opposing Venus in Leo. In this 4 hr period you are especially attracted to beauty that has a history to it. You also want to share with the people that you have a history with. You treasure deep soul connections that are built out of the history contained in the objects and people around you.
Starting at 6:38 AM, peaking at 8:38 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.”
At 8:18 PM 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 9:00 PM, peaking at 11:00 PM, the Moon in Pisces is joining with Saturn in Pisces. 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.}
On September 23, the Fall Equinox occurred as the Sun entered Libra. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the Winter Solstice on December 21. At the Fall Equinox day and night are of equal length and we are moving towards the shorter days of Fall and Winter. This vibrational pattern is showing the Sun in relationship to Neptune and Pluto bringing a compulsive focus on your dreams and ideals and the potential for them to flow into realization in harmony with other people. There is a lot of mental energy with the potential to learn and develop new ideas and to try to act on your ideas and possibly get frustrated and angry if you are opposed. The desire is to bridge the gap in understanding and transmit to others what you have learned. There is also the potential for expanding your spiritual understandings during the Fall. The Sabian symbol for the Sun-Moon relationship is “Two Fairies on a Moonlit night”. You may discover two amazing, wonderful magical potentials illuminated in the darkness within you, the sensitive receptive potential and the potential to act in effective ways that bring your dreams to life, showing you that you are capable of being more than you ever dreamed of. On the flip side you may be misunderstanding what you are perceiving and getting caught up in illusion and fantasy which can result in being confused and irresponsible.
On September 22, the First Quarter Moon Phase occurred with the Moon in Sagittarius and the Sun in Virgo. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the Full Moon on September 29. This vibrational energy pattern is about acting effectively in a big way. You can sense how to present yourself and your actions so that other people will be comfortable with what you are doing. There is also a deeper level to this week before the Full Moon. If you spend some time working within yourself, there is a potential to get some new insights into who you truly are and what the gifts are that you have to share with others. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A False Call unheard in attention to immediate service” which involves operating out of a state of personal completion and fulfillment totally focusing on the immediate project or development in which you’re engaged and not letting interruptions side track you from what you need to do. The Symbol for the Moon is “The Pope” which is about sacrificing your needs in order to operate for the greater good.
On September 14, the New Moon occurred with the Sun and Moon in Virgo. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the next New Moon, a Solar Eclipse on October 14.This vibrational energy pattern has a strong emphasis on emotional spontaneity and quick responses in the moment. There is a sense of working to realize your dreams through what you encounter in the world. There is an awareness of the community you are in and of the importance of expanding the benefits of community to all the people in the community. The Sabian Symbol for the New Moon is “A Royal Coat of Arms”. This symbol points to the responsibility each of us has to pass the benefits we have received on to the people who are in need. What we have gained we have a responsibility to pass on to others, to aide, to guide and to protect those who are less fortunate than we are.
On May 5, the Full Moon Lunar Eclipse occurred with the Moon in Scorpio opposing the Sun in Taurus. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the next Lunar Eclipse on October 28. This vibrational pattern is expansive and seeking to understand the different ways people can understand the world. This is often done by participating in a culture that is different from your culture of origin. There is a strong need for the freedom to express yourself and to act on your feelings. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A Bridge being built across a Gorge” which helps you connect to the next more expansive level of awareness beyond where you currently are operating. The Moon Symbol is “A Gold Rush”. This helps you find and identify the rigid patterns within you that are keeping you from connecting into the gold of your true self. You can break up these rigid structures and open up to a deeper truer understanding of yourself.
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 your connection within yourself 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 you 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.
The Retrograde Diary: DEGREE CHANGES TODAY: Mercury >> Turning Backward of Jupiter: Reworking of Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto: Resolution of Mercury, Venus {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 “!!!”}
