The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry
Today, Wednesday (4/15/2025), the strongest vibrational influence comes from Mercury and Mars joining with Neptune (3*). This vibrational energy pattern is about a very strong need for your experiences to be flowing and harmonious. You may combine this with interaction with that which is around you and engage in interaction with and exploration of that which attracts you. You need to study and learn how to use that which you learn. You are looking for exciting amazing ideas that bring you better understanding of your dreams enabling you to pursue those dreams more effectively. (For VA Students: 3, 6, 9, 12, 15)
This vibrational energy pattern is better and more effectively implemented by doing that which resonates with you no matter what the opinions of others is. The challenge is to build a safe space where you can be safe to be yourself while you are merging with whatever you are involved in.
The AstroFrequency(s) for the day (strongest listed first)
1 (6*) Doing things your own way, evaluating the ideas of others and only changing if you agree with them
3 (4*) Need to experience a flow of energy within and around you. Can be very distressed if your efforts and experiences do not bring this sense of flow.
The Sabian Symbols of our Featured Planets: Mercury, Mars, Neptune >>
The uplifting message from the featured planet positions that shows the way through: You are seeing and experiencing the wholeness that lies behind the polarized realm of time and space recognizing that everything is a manifestation of the one Spirit that is All That Is. You are accepting that you have a heritage that is fraught with problems and issues that have been seeking to control and limit you and you are seeking to free yourself from these forces and to learn how to operate genuinely and freely, in a full expression to who you truly are. You are opening up to the initial tentative pulse of creative energy within you, feeling it on a primal level of awareness, embracing it and allowing it to rise up in a flow within you.
The more dysfunctional expression of this message: You are continuing to be caught up in the illusion of many separate and distinct forms. You are holding onto your traditional position in society seeking to continue in the patterns you have always operated in, being unwilling to reexamine your current patterns and accept the problems and issues you need to work on holding onto the traditional values with which you have been raised; glorifying the past as a way of maintaining your traditional superiority over others. You are failing to open up to the tentative pulse of creation that you feel within you because of a lack of commitment to the process or being too weakly connected or being too fearful and insecure.

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}
Apr 15 – Apr 18 (exact Apr 17) Mercury in Aries is joining with Neptune in Aries. This energy is increasing in influence until it peaks at 12:11 AM on Apr. 17 then decreasing fading out around 8 AM on Apr. 18. This vibrational energy pattern brings you into excited contact with new ideas that are fascinating, amazing, and wonderful.
Apr 7 – Apr 16 (not exact, closest Apr 12) Mercury in Pisces is flowing freely (trine) with Mars in Cancer. This energy is fading out around 8 PM on Apr. 16. This vibrational energy pattern is about a need for a flow of new information that you can put to practical use combining things together that do not seem connected as you seek to build a place that is safe for people where they can be themselves.
Apr 4 – Apr 24 (exact Apr 8) Venus in Pisces is sharing freely (sextile) with Uranus in Taurus. This energy is decreasing fading out around 3 AM on Apr. 24. This vibrational energy pattern is about sudden feelings of attraction to beauty that are shared with another person. This is a good time to go out dancing with someone as this can also be about beautiful rhythms.
Mar 22 – Apr 20 (exact Apr 4) Saturn in Pisces is sharing freely (sextile) with Uranus in Taurus. This energy is decreasing fading out around 5 AM on Apr. 20. This vibrational energy pattern is about learning how to stay true to the unique way you perceive life and at the same time give others space for and respect for having their own unique perception and understanding of what is happening around them.
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 8:23 PM yesterday, peaking at 10:23 PM yesterday, the Moon in Scorpio is flowing freely (trine) with Mercury in Pisces. This 4 hr period brings a good interaction between your mind and emotions helping you to both think and feel clearly. This is a good time to be working on important projects.
Starting at 9:50 PM yesterday, peaking at 11:50 PM yesterday, the Moon in Sagittarius is flowing freely (trine) with Neptune in Aries. This 4 hr period takes you into your dreams, they are living inside you and you are feeling them. You may find yourself daydreaming more than usual. You can use this time to get deeply in touch with your dreams and draw inspiration from them to help you make them more real.
Starting at 4:08 AM, peaking at 6:08 AM, the Moon in Sagittarius is sharing freely (sextile) with Pluto in Aquarius. In this 4 hr period there is an easier connection into deeply buried feelings than at other times. There is an opportunity here to share these deep levels with your friends and to be open to them sharing their deep feelings with you. This exchange can sometimes have a healing quality and reduce the pain within you and your friends.
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 12, the Full Moon occurred with the Moon in Libra and the Sun in Aries. This Vibrational Pattern will be influencing us until the New Moon on April 27, 2025. This vibrational energy pattern is about taking action based on the deep beauty that is the essence of truth in the situation combined with your sense of amazing new ideas that are revolutionary. There is a potential for sudden insights and actions that bring changes in your understanding as you are developing yourself in an open creative community. Underneath this is the need to form your own pattern of understanding through creative development of inspiring exchanges of information with others. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “An Open Window and a Net Curtain blowing into a Cornucopia”. This encourages you to open your spirit to the abundance that is available to you. It is as if you become a vehicle through which that abundance can manifest and supply whatever is needed. The Symbol for the Moon is “A Third Wing on the Left Side of a Butterfly”. You may find yourself having feelings of vulnerability and fragility, recognizing your differences from others as your spiritual transformation brings changes within you, feeling your heart expanding and providing a greater capacity to nurture, and greater sensitivity.
On March 29, the New Moon Solar Eclipse occurred with the Sun and Moon in Aries. This Vibrational Pattern will be influencing us until the next New Moon Solar Eclipse on September 21, 2025. This vibr ational energy pattern brings a sense of dissatisfaction and a restless searching that is reaching out to find something more satisfactory. There is a sense of connecting into another level of awareness that is idealistic and visionary. This awareness can either open you up to amazing deep spiritual truths or bring a sense of confusion and deceit and betrayal that needs to be penetrated to get to the truths underneath it. The Sabian Symbol for the New Moon Solar Eclipse is “A False Call unheard in attention to Immediate Service”.
This is about totally focusing on the immediate project or development in which you’re engaged, ignoring all distractions, operating from a state of personal completion and fulfillment. Remaining focused at this time enables you to pursue the opportunities available to you.
On March 20, the Spring Equinox occurred with the Sun entering Aries. This Vibrational Pattern will be influencing us until the Summer Solstice on June 20, 2025. This vibrational energy pattern is focused on our dreams and whether we are seeing the potential for them to become a part of our everyday life. Part of this is tapping into ourselves and being clear what kinds of dreams are speaking to us. Then comes being willing to act on those dreams and express them. This means taking risks, putting yourself out there. Remember you cannot succeed without taking the risk of failing. Count each failure as a step toward success. The Sun-Moon angle for the Spring Equinox is the Sabian Symbol “A Woman and two Men on a bit of sunlit land facing south”. This is about learning to be flexible and open. There is the potential here to see clearly how you can make appropriate choices to act either in the realm of Spirit or the realm of Matter as appropriate. You may discover competing needs within you. If you disconnect from that which is around you and isolate yourself you may experience a devastating sense of estrangement.
On March 14, the Full Moon Eclipse occurred with the Moon in Virgo and the Sun in Pisces. This pattern will be influencing us until the next Full Moon Lunar Eclipse on September 7, 2025. This vibrational energy pattern helps us connect into what we really feel deep inside of us. It encourages us to be true to those internal feelings. This can involve letting go of some emotional feelings that do not really serve us. There is a strong focus on working with others helping them to connect into the deep patterns within them that show who they really are. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “An Inhabited Island” which is about you truly grounding within yourself in the essence of yourself, recognizing your boundaries and empowering yourself while learning how to balance your needs against the needs of those around you. Take care to not be putting restrictive boundaries between yourself and those around you and focus only on yourself feeling alienated, deserted and alone. The Moon Symbol is “Mary and her little Lamb”, which is about loving yourself and those around you, operating based on love, kindness and friendship for mutual support, while maintaining your boundaries and your sense of self-integrity. There is a danger here of you or the other person becoming overly dependent on the other.
The Retrograde Diary: DEGREE CHANGES TODAY: Mercury >> Introductory Period of Saturn, Neptune: Turning Back of Pluto: Turning Forward of Venus: Resolution of Mercury, Mars, Jupiter, 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 “!!!”}
