The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry*

Yesterday and today, Wednesday (8/03/2022), the strongest vibrational influence comes from Venus and Mars joining with Uranus (1*). The strongest vibrational pattern today seeks to work in harmony with others. There is a need to act but only to take actions in ways that others are comfortable with. This includes interacting with sensitivity in a community and working to manifest one’s goals in a way that is sensitive to the needs of everyone involved. There is even potential here for creative expression in harmony with those around you. This is about creating beauty in the moment, seeing the special ways that something can be designed or placed that just fit in with everything around and yet bring a fresh sense of newness at the same time. You can let your creative inspirations flow under this vibration. (For VA Students: 6, 12, 18).

The AstroFrequency(s) for the day (strongest listed first)
29 (1*) Evolution through immersion in new world views
27 (1*) Deep Need to bring peace and healing for the problems in your community

The Sabian Symbols of our Featured Planets: Venus, Mars, Uranus
The uplifting message from the featured planet positions that shows the way through: You are using ritual to bond in a permanent equal exchange with this new level even though you know you still have a lot to learn. You are feeling a sense of yourself as a newly formed being in your own right. You are celebrating the awesome experience of interacting within yourself on a new level where you connect in with the beautiful jewel of your essence in love and affirmation. You are experiencing the movements and fluctuations of energy within you learning where the energy flows freely and where there is damage or blockage that interferes with the energy flow. The more dysfunctional expression of this message: You are using ritual as a superficial pattern that enables you to conform to social expectations. You are reacting in fear and rejecting the new pattern rising up within you. You are flattering another, saying whatever you think they need to hear in order to get them to do what you want them to do. You are blocking off your awareness of energy patterns within you maintaining a sense of internal rigidity that enables you to ignore your internal issues.

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 1 – Aug 4 (exact Aug 2) Venus in Cancer is sharing freely (sextile) with Mars in Taurus. This vibe is decreasing fading out around 3 PM on Aug 4. This vibration is about hands on activity making beautiful things. This can include personal relationships as well as crafts and cooking from scratch and working in your garden. You may find yourself inspired to make something beautiful during this vibration.

Aug 1 – Aug 3 (exact Aug 2) Venus in Cancer is sharing freely (sextile) with Uranus in Taurus. This vibe is decreasing fading out around 4 AM. This vibration brings a need to share beauty harmoniously with others. This is a general response to beauty but it also has the potential to bring strong personal feelings of attraction to another that are spontaneously expressed. If you have been in a relationship this could indicate a change in that relationship either getting closer or separating.

Jul 31 – Aug 3 (exact Aug 1) Mars in Taurus is joining with Uranus in Taurus. This vibe is decreasing fading out around 10 AM. This vibration is very volatile. There is a strong tendency here to act on the spur of the moment without thinking through what you are doing. Seek to be aware of your actions and do an extra little double check because this pattern sometimes results in accidents.

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 11:54 AM, peaking at 1:54 PM, the Moon in Libra is acting and agitating (square) with Venus in Cancer. This 4 hr period brings a desire to feel beautiful. You will probably be more aware of your appearance and the appearance of the world around you. You may be moved to make something around you look nicer.

Starting at 4:28 PM, peaking at 6:28 PM, the Moon in Libra is flowing freely (trine) with Saturn in Aquarius. This 4 hr period stimulates an internal awareness of the patterns that are working for your long term benefit and those that are undermining your goals. It is easy to shift at this time to a more effective expression related to your goals.

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 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: Pluto Turning back of Jupiter, Uranus, Neptune: Reworking of Saturn: 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 “!”}
