Astro Vibrational Tapestry Reportby Linda Berry and Starlene Breiter
The Strongest Vibration today comes from the Sun interacting with Saturn and Neptune (1*). Together they generate an extremely creative frequency that vibrates within each of us today. This involves tuning into the dreams and visions we have of that which is universal, long-lasting, that which will still be of importance and operating beyond your life-time. For some this is tuning into a sense of history unfolding and a desire to help move our experience here on Earth into more positive and life-affirming directions. For others who are inclined to operate in more spiritual and mystical realms, this is a day when you may tune into the cosmic vibrations, the universal essence, the all, whatever you call this awareness. Have a notebook with you because today you may have new and wonderful ideas and insights pop into your brain and if they do, write them down so you can remember them later. This is important.

The Mood of the Day
{The only aspect to mention today is an aspect to the Moon. Moon aspects are more like moods, than life-changing alterations/situations. Since they are two planet Moon patterns they only last a couple of hours on each side of their peak times.}
The Moon in Libra comes to a trine with Mars in Aquarius at 2:57 AM. This is a cheerful and exciting energy. Landing in the early hours for most people (reading this Astro Tapestry Report) you might find yourself up early, or staying up late from the night before. The energy present is very cheerful and exciting. So, even though this falls at an awkward time for most of us, this is a time when we might benefit from doing something active with ourselves.
Longer Term Vibrations that need to be considered. 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.} Cyclic Patterns we are experiencing at this time

Retrogrades of personal planets:
Mercury will go retrograde on July 27 (23le26) and will turn direct on August 19 (11le32).
We are currently in the pre-retrograde shadow which lasts from July 8 to July 27. During this time period you need to check and double check and triple check things because you are more likely now to miss something and need to correct it. The post-retrograde period will be from August 19 to September 2. This Mercury retrograde is focused on whether you get caught up in the superficiality of appearances or you can learnt to expand your awareness of yourself and others to a point where you recognize your innate self-worth and the worth of other people and recognize that who a person is, is a lot more important than what they appear to be. Appearances can be deceiving and you are challenged to look at the deeper truths of each person you interact with.
Mars went retrograde on June 27(9aq13) and will turn direct in on August 27(28cp37). When Mars appears to go retrograde due to our position here on the Earth, the Mars energies are likely to go out of control if they are disturbed. In other words, anyone who hasn’t worked through their issues with anger and frustration may explode during Mars retrograde. There is also a shadow around the retrograde both before and after the retrograde period when the Mars energy may not work the way you expect it to work. The pre-retrograde shadow was from May 13thto June 27th. The post-retrograde shadow will be from August 27th to October 8th. In the post-retrograde shadow you will have an opportunity to rework your issues with anger and frustration and perhaps learn a better way of dealing with times when your actions get blocked by something or someone around you. The challenge of this Mars retrograde period is to see where you need to take responsibility for your life and your decisions rather than blaming others, to see what biases and illusions you carry within you that are distorting your reactions and to revise your understanding to see the deeper truths of each person as a unique soul and spirit of value.
We are in a new eclipse cycle starting with the Solar Eclipse on July 12. This will be followed by a Lunar Eclipse on July 27 and a second Solar Eclipse on August 11. Thus we are entering a full month of change. Be prepared to go through a series of changes involving new realizations about yourself and the world around you. This eclipse brings with it a feeling of focus and discipline touched with a certain obsessive compulsive feeling about getting done what you need to get done. The Sabian Symbol for this eclipse is “A prima donna singing” which encourages us to naturally express our gifts as they come up within us without the expectation of special privileges being given to us as some kind of right based on how special we are. If we demand special treatment it will distort our gifts as they are used to feed the ego, rather than being expressed as a natural part of us.
The Summer Solstice was on June 21 and this energy pattern will be influencing us until September 22 when the Fall Equinox occurs. The Summer Solstice is when the Sun enters Cancer and the Summer officially begins. With the temperatures we have been seeing a lot of places, it looks like the Summer has gotten off to a running start. This summer there is a strong emphasis on taking action that will benefit the community and bring peace and healing. People will not be willing to sacrifice their sense of what is right and ultimately meaningful but they will value operating in peaceful cooperative ways to achieve their goals. In the midst of all this it is important for each of us to take some time out to just be in the moment and relax and play in a creative way.
