The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry

Today, Wednesday (4/3/2024), the strongest vibrational influence comes from the Mercury and Mars joining with Uranus (2*). This vibrational energy pattern is interactive and exploratory. Without an agenda, it just wants to experience the interactions and connections of whatever it is interested in. It is very much in the moment, enjoying the interesting things it is seeing. This brings a great deal of learning in an open exploratory manner building an organic understanding within you. There is the potential here for sudden insights into the things you are playing with. This may be done to support a community or a community project as well as on an individual basis. (For VA Students: 10, 25)

The Theme for today is about reaching out long distances based on a perception of far places and spaces seeking to be able to connect with other sin a network that is in a safe space where everyone can genuinely be who they are without roles or pretense.

The AstroFrequency(s) for the day (strongest listed first)
10 (4*) Play and Creative Exploration with Others
25 (4*) Participation in an open, creative community

The Sabian Symbols of our Featured Planets: Mercury, Mars, Uranus >>>

The uplifting message from the featured planet positions that shows the way through: You are being confronted with the results of your lack of awareness, personal preoccupation and blindness that have disappointed and hurt others and yourself, facing your failings and engaging in the self-evaluation that will enable you to grow and change. You are flying above the limitations you have encountered, getting an objective perspective on your internal patterns and distortions.  You are getting a second chance enabling you to reconnect with lost opportunities through the use of your imagination.  You are recognizing the messages pointing to your personal lessons, embracing your potential for growth, seeking to open to the evolving pattern of yourself.

The more dysfunctional expression of this message: You are holding onto old ego patterns, only seeing your viewpoint; becoming angry with others for not going along with your personal preoccupations and agenda. You are losing track of what is going on around you, removing yourself from what is happening, seeking to escape your responsibilities, putting yourself above everyone else.  You are getting caught up in loss and despair, failing to believe in yourself and closing your imagination down with the result that you fail every time you try.  You are closing yourself off and refusing to look at the message in front of your eyes.

10 Pisces = Mars [An aviator in the clouds] You are flying above the limitations you have encountered, getting an objective perspective on your internal patterns and distortions and/or you are losing track of what is going on around you, removing yourself from what is happening, seeking to escape your responsibilities, putting yourself above everyone else

27 Aries = Mercury [Lost opportunity regained in the imagination] You are getting a second chance enabling you to reconnect with lost opportunities through the use of your imagination and/or you are getting caught up in loss and despair, failing to believe in yourself and closing your imagination down with the result that you fail every time you try

21 Taurus = Uranus [A finger pointing in an open book] You are recognizing the messages pointing to your personal lessons, embracing your potential for growth, seeking to open to the evolving pattern of yourself and/or you are closing yourself off and refusing to look at the message in front of your eyes

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 2 – Apr 4 (exact Apr 3) Venus in Pisces is joining with Neptune in Pisces. This vibe is increasing in influence until it peaks at 9:10 AM on Apr. 3 then decreasing fading out around 5 AM on Apr. 4. This vibrational energy pattern is about an idealism of beauty. This can be very romantic in a relationship. This would be a great time for a romantic evening. It also talks about any kind of envisioning of dreams especially dreams that involve attraction to idealistic beauty.

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 10:11 PM yesterday, peaking at 12:11 AM early April 3, the Moon in Capricorn is acting and agitating (square) with Mercury in Aries. This 4 hr period involves your emotions and moods stimulating your mind and results in you needing to balance your mind and emotions in order to act in clear constructive ways.  It is important for you to pay attention to your feelings and your thoughts on whatever is happening now and remember to think before you act.

Starting at 10:58 PM yesterday, peaking at 12:58 AM early April 3, the Moon in Capricorn is sharing freely (sextile) with Venus in Pisces. In this 4 hr period you especially want to experience loving interactions with those that you are closest to, especially those with whom you feel a soul connection.

Starting at 11:40 PM yesterday, peaking at 1:40 AM early April 3, the Moon in Capricorn is sharing freely (sextile) with Neptune in Pisces. This 4 hr period could bring a distracted dreamy feeling when you are not really sharply focused.  Instead you may find yourself day-dreaming about what you would like your life to be like. This is a good time to dream, but not a good time to act on those dreams.  Wait until you are thinking more clearly.

At 5:08 AM the Moon enters Aquarius and becomes focused for the next 2 ½ days on participating in group processes.  We are all a part of many groups including our family, our friends, our community, our country and our world.  The Moon in Aquarius finds satisfaction in being a part of its groups and contributing to the functioning and well being of those groups. 

Starting at 6:23 AM, peaking at 8:23 AM, the Moon in Aquarius is joining with Pluto in Aquarius. This 4 hr period is likely to bring some deep intense emotional feelings with perhaps an awareness of older patterns that are influencing your reactions right now.

The Cyclic Patterns Diary {These are patterns that continue over an extended period vof 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 1, the Third Quarter Moon Phase occurred with the Moon in Capricorn and the Sun in Aries. This will be influencing us until the New Moon Solar Eclipse on April 8, 2024. This vibrational energy pattern is about the old obsessive patterns from the past erupting unpredictably with potential for violence in the present moment without any concern for how disruptive or consequential this may be. There is a challenge here to learn how to interact with love and respect no matter what our differences are. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “An Unsuccessful Bomb Explosion” which is about learning that you have to face your situation and take personal responsibility for yourself and your actions. There are certain limitations and constraints that are part of life and you can either cope with them or deny them and live in a state of illusion. The Symbol for the Moon is “A Fire Worshiper”. This is about learning to humbly recognize your ties to the divine essence in the heart of all things. This can bring feelings of exaltation and consummation as the darkness, self-centeredness, fear and insecurity within you are burned away.

On March 25, a Full Moon Lunar Eclipse occurred with the Moon in Libra and the Sun in Aries. This will be influencing us until the next Lunar Eclipse on September 17, 2024. This vibrational energy pattern is especially focused on taking actions in ways that are compatible with the other people involved in and impacted by the actions. There is the potential here for sudden unexpected events to occur and for the results of one’s actions to have unexpected consequences. There is also an emphasis here of being able to get down to the true core patterns involved and to be able to see the real motives behind people’s actions. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A Square brightly lighted on one side”. This symbol is about identifying your destination point and sensing the path you need to take to reach it. The Symbol for the Moon is “The Ideals of a man abundantly crystallized”. This encourages you to work internally to solidify your ideals, forming a solid foundation from which you can relate to others effectively.

On March 19, the Spring Equinox occurred as the Sun entered Aries. This pattern will be influencing us until the Summer Solstice on June 25, 2024. This vibrational energy pattern is connecting into our deep emotional levels making us aware of these deep levels and bringing the potential for a reworking, a rebirth of these deep levels based on insight into what is actually going on within us. This insight may come as a result of seeking to act out of these deep levels and getting feedback from the world around us. There is the potential for a reality check on the foundations of our systems during this three month period. The Sabian Symbol for the relationship of Sun to Moon is “A Man formally dressed and a Deer with its Horns folded. This symbol recognized our more primitive aggressive instincts and shows that we use formal, polite relationship patterns to guide our interactions with other. This will enable us to gain control of our more primitive aggressive instincts. Displaying power, dominance and intimidation in this time period is going against the current energy flow and will tend to undermine the accomplishment of your goals.

On March 10, the New Moon occurred with the Moon and Sun in Pisces. This pattern will be influencing us until the next New Moon, the Solar Eclipse, on April 8, 2024. This vibrational energy pattern involves an evaluation of the world around you to see how well it matches up with your internal sense of the way the world needs to operate. This is a time to take action to adjust the patterns around you so that they more closely match up with what is inside you. It is important to look at the consequences of the patterns within you and those around you and to adjust your actions when they are not reaching to objectives you want to have happen. The Sabian Symbol for the New Moon is “A little white Lamb, a Child and a Chinese Servant”. This is a challenge to recognize the value of all levels of consciousness, seeking to serve and teach those who are less aware than you in a gentle loving manner while you are recognizing that you are learning from everyone around you. There is a warning here that if you fail to take responsibility for yourself you may face unpleasant consequences.

On October 14, 2023 the New Moon Solar Eclipse occurred with the Sun and Moon in Libra. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the next Solar Eclipse on April 8, 2024. This vibrational energy is particularly oriented towards involvement in creative groups. There is a desire to explore without an agenda and see what wonders you can find. This involves a passion for learning and applying what you have learned. There is a desire to expand emotionally at a pace you can handle effectively. There is also a need to go out and act and express yourself, make your life happen. The Sabian Symbol for the Eclipse is “A Child giving Birds a Drink at a Fountain”. This is about drawing from the fountain of spiritual nourishment, replenishing yourself and generously sharing with those around you who are not able to obtain it for themselves.

The Retrograde Diary: DEGREE CHANGES TODAY: Mercury, Neptune >> Introductory Period for Saturn, Neptune, Pluto: Reworking of Mercury: 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 “!!!”}
