The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry*
Today, Wednesday (8/10/2022), the strongest vibrational influence comes from the Moon and Venus joining with Pluto (1*). The strongest vibrational pattern today is out there in the world interacting with others. There is a strong sense of the motivations and drives within you. This is combined with seeking an interactive harmonious flow with others seeking to effectively accomplish your goals. There is a lot of emotional sensitivity today and a sense of connection with the past. This can involve a delight in beautiful things from the past. This can include traditions that have a long history. Doing something today that celebrates the beautiful things we have received from the past is something you may feel a real need to do. (For VA Students: 2, 4, 6, 8).
The AstroFrequency(s) for the day (strongest listed first)
26 (1*) Moves Beyond Average or Mediocre in interactions with others
29 (1*) Evolution through immersion in new world views
The Sabian Symbols of our Featured Planets: Moon, Venus, Pluto
The uplifting message from the featured planet positions that shows the way through: You are climbing to the heights of the mountains, seeking to make the connections needed to bring a deeper level of spiritual awareness into yourself and the world. You are beginning to read, with great clarity, the hidden level of reality, putting aside your skepticism, opening to your intuitive awareness, taking responsibility for your impact on everything around you. You are weighing and evaluating the rational and irrational levels within you finding that they are reflections of each other coming to understand that you need to learn how to establish a balance between them based on a higher level of awareness. The more dysfunctional expression of this message: You are seeking to reach the top of the heap in order to show that you’re better than others so you can look down on them from your exalted position. You are superstitiously depending on signs around you and blindly following these signs, not taking responsibility for your life or your decisions. You are feeling torn between the rational and irrational aspects of yourself constantly flipping back and forth between them unable to find a balance between them.

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 here, followed by a section on the Moods of the Moon}
Aug 10 – Aug 12 (exact Aug 11) the Sun in Leo is acting and agitating (square) with Uranus in Taurus. This vibe begins to influence us around 8 AM and is increasing in influence until it peaks at 4:08 AM on Aug 11 then decreasing fading out around 10 AM on Aug 12. This vibration is very active and impulsive with a strong tendency to respond in the moment. It does not consider the expectations of others or the consequences of its action. You need to consciously put a warning to stop for a second and check if your actions are safe. This is one of the vibrational patterns that is most likely to bring accidents. Remember to watch others as well as monitoring your own impulsiveness.
Aug 10 – Aug 13 (exact Aug 11) Mars in Taurus is sharing freely (sextile) with Neptune in Pisces. This vibe begins to influence us around 5 AM and is increasing in influence until it peaks at 5:44 PM on Aug 11 then decreasing fading out around 10 AM on Aug 13. This vibration brings an attunement to your dreams and the ability to act on them with others in a smoothly flowing harmonious experience.
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 3:12 AM, peaking at 5:12 AM, the Moon in Capricorn is flowing freely (trine) with Mars in Taurus. 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 4:45 AM, peaking at 6:45 AM, 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.
Starting at 7:45 AM, peaking at 9:45 AM, the Moon in Capricorn is joining with Pluto in Capricorn. 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 10:39 AM, peaking at 12:39 PM, the Moon in Capricorn is opposing Venus in Cancer. 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.
At 2:45 PM 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.
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 August 5, the First Quarter Moon occurred with the Sun in Leo is and the Moon in Scorpio. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the Full Moon on Aug 11. This vibrational pattern starts with a sense of something special that we can tune into inside of ourselves. This is aided by the sensitivity people are likely to have to each other this week. There is the potential for deeply evaluating the stories of the people around you and being able to help them tune in more deeply into the special awareness and gifts that they have. There may be some sudden emotional experiences and insights. Be aware that people are likely to have a low frustration tolerance today. Be prepared to walk away if a situation looks like it will get volatile. The Sabian symbol for the Sun is “The Human Soul awaiting opportunity for Expression”. This is about opening up to the messages within you and around you, waiting until you know it is the right time for you to express yourself. The Symbol for the Moon is “Telephone Linemen at Work”. This brings the opportunity to establish new and more extensive connections between different aspects of yourself and the universal levels of awareness. Seek to be aware of where the spiritual communication is coming from and not get your personal desires mixed in and distorting the message.
On July 28, the New Moon occurred with the Sun and Moon in Leo. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the next New Moon on Aug 27. This vibrational pattern brings a focus on your own internal world and may well be a time of withdrawal. You may find yourself needing more time to yourself than usual in order to keep your internal balance. At the same time there is the indication of a need to expand either your own awareness or your connections with the greater world. The Sabian Symbol for the new moon is “An Old-Fashioned Woman and an Up-To-Date Girl”. This is about needing to balance tried and true patterns with new innovative patterns looking for the most effective and wisest course of action. There is a danger of becoming so attached to a particular point of view that you feel threatened by anything that challenges it.
On June 21 the Summer Solstice occurred as the Sun entered Cancer. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the Fall Equinox on September 22. The vibrational energy pattern for the solstice contains a shared potential for creative exploration. There is also a sense of shared restlessness and dissatisfaction that seems to drive people to seek something different than what they have. The Sabian Symbol for the Summer Solstice comes from the relationship of the Sun to the Moon. It is “A Gypsy coming out of the Forest” which shows the potential for people to move beyond their previously restricted viewpoint and become aware of a larger reality that they can connect into.
On May 16, the Full Moon Lunar Eclipse occurred with the Moon in Scorpio and the Sun in Taurus. This is the end of this eclipse season and this vibrational pattern will be influencing us until the next Eclipse Season starts on October 25, 2022. This eclipse is especially involved with Saturn seeking to focus on that which is essential and of long-term importance and to let go of passing feelings and actions that will not be remembered at a later time. This vibrational pattern involves deep inner work seeking to find the appropriate actions and includes a sense of not knowing and not being able to know all the answers. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A Spaniard serenading his Senorita” which calls for you to refocus the assertive/aggressive aspect of yourself, discovering the value of love and gentleness, and seeing the beauty within you and in others. The Moon Symbol is “Indians making Camp”. This symbol is about learning to operate in a new realm where you need to learn the rules for functioning in this place so that you respect the rights of everyone involved.
On April 30, the New Moon Solar Eclipse occurred with the Sun and Moon in Taurus. This is the start of this eclipse season and this vibrational pattern will be influencing us until the next Eclipse Season starts on October 25, 2022. This eclipse focuses on devotion to the beauty of the past with a sense of the importance of direct hands on experience seeking to evaluate what really needs to happen to properly honor the past in the present. The importance of actually taking action to make a more direct involved and beautiful world is especially emphasized. The Sabian Symbol for the eclipse is “Deep-Sea Divers” which is about exploring the deepest realms of your being finding the tremendous pressures that are operating within you calling you to open to new awareness of your talents and gifts. Take care to keep in touch with the reality of the world around you as you are probing the depths within you.
The Retrograde Diary: DEGREE CHANGES TODAY: None Turning back of Jupiter, Uranus: Reworking of Saturn, Neptune: Turning forward of Pluto {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 “!”}
