The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry*
At 12:12 AM EDT, earlyApril 20 the New Moon a Solar Eclipse occurs with the Sun and the Moon in Aries.
Today, Wednesday (04/19/2023), the strongest vibrational influence comes from the Sun and Moon joining with Jupiter (1*). This vibrational pattern is impacting us on a very fundamental level. It is working within us and influencing our interactions with others and with the world around us. There is a strong focus here on one’s emotional feelings and a tendency to feel things in a big way. This includes a desire to expand your emotional experiences through expanding the group of people you are connected with. This makes this a good time for social interactions since everyone is wanting to make additional connections. (ForVA Students: 1, 2)

The Sabian Symbols of our Featured Planets: Sun, Moon, Jupiter >>> The uplifting message fromthe featured planet positions that shows the way through: You are opening your spirit to the abundance that is available as you become a vehicle through which that abundance can manifest and supply whatever is needed. You are recognizing that you operate within a bounded, limited sphere of activity, inter-linked with a particular group of people, within a greater realm. The more dysfunctional expression of this message: You are refusing to open up and rejecting what is offered to you, living in a state of deprivation and loss. You are defining your immediate sphere (the duck pond) as all that is important and becoming provincially focused on the needs of your small group.

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 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}
Apr 19 – Apr 21(exact Apr 20) the Sun in Taurus is acting and agitating (square) with Pluto in Aquarius. This vibe begins to influence us around 12 PM and is increasing in influence until it peaks at 12:27PM on Apr 20 then decreasing fading out around 1 PM on Apr 21. This vibration brings a strong sense of the importance of having a mission and purpose in your life. This may include questioning what your purpose is as well as evaluating and revising your mission and purpose based on recent experiences. There is a push here to take action in your life that is in line with your sense of your mission and purpose.
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 11:26AM, peaking at 1:26 PM, the Moon in Aries is joining with Jupiter in Aries. This 4 hr period brings a time when you will feel emotionally expansive and want to share with others in a big way. Enjoy this lovely expansive energy. If something unpleasant happens take care to not overreact.
At 12:12 AM early April 20, the Moon in Aries is joining with the Sun in Aries. This is a New Moon Solar Eclipse. See the Cyclic Patterns Diary for more information.
Starting at 11:04PM, peaking at 1:04 AM early April 20, the Moon in Taurus is acting and agitating (square) with Pluto in Aquarius. In this 4 hr period you may feel a need to act based on deep feelings within you that may come to the surface at this time. Ask yourself whether you are responding to the past or the present. Try to not put past feelings on the people you are currently interacting with.
The Cyclic Patterns Diary {These are patterns that continue over an extended period oftime 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.}
At 12:12 AM EDT, early April 20 the New Moon a Solar Eclipse occurs 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: NO DEGREE CHANGES TODAY >> Introductory phase of Saturn, Neptune: Turning Backward of Mercury, Pluto: 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 “!”}
