Astro Vibrational Tapestry Report
by Linda Berry and Starlene Breiter
The Strongest Vibrational Pattern today is the result of the Sun joining with Venus and Uranus (2*). You are likely to be impulsive today as you are attracted to whatever is happening in each moment. You are very responsive to the signals of each moment and may find yourself wanting to just go out and explore today. If you can give yourself the room to do something impulsive when it pops into your head, you may well discover something attractive that you had not previously realized was there. You have insight into the patterns swirling around you in each moment and may well find yourself thinking and expressing something new and different that is not typical for you.
The AstroFrequency(s) for the day (in order of strength)
8 (1*) Acting to make something real in the world, manifestation
32 (1*) Deeply internalized thoughts that are not seen by others but drive action
The Mood of the Day
The Leo Sun come to a square with Uranus in Taurus today at 7:35 AM. This aspect started to come into focus yesterday and will last into tomorrow. We can be feeling very energetic during this time, as if there is an electrical energy running through us. Just be sure to be aware of your actions because there is a tendency to make mistakes because you are not present in the moment. Keep yourself focused and feel the inspiration of being in the present moment with yourself.
Venus in Virgo peaked in an opposition with Neptune in Pisces yesterday. This aspect lasts until about 2 PM today. During this time you may be having some idealistic thoughts about others. Be aware of this as this energy might be deceptive and not based in a ton of reality. You might feel great now or be idealizing something that does not really pan out for you as you suspect it may. Being aware is key and allowing your imagination the time to float through the thoughts that come to you, is a positive way to use this energy.
{The remaining aspects to mention today are aspects 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 comes to a conjunction with Saturn in Capricorn at 1:46 AM. This energy is one that feels dependable or responsible. You are not afraid to seek out things that are important to you. If you happen to be asleep during this time, you might just sleep really solid. In the evening the Capricorn Moon comes to a sextile with Jupiter in Scorpio at 9:32 PM. This is a cheerful energy, one that feels pleasant and jovial. You might want to seek out enjoyment during this time, especially enjoyment that is not the usual form of enjoyment for you.

The First Quarter Moon was on July 19 and will be influencing us until the Full Moon on July 27. It brings a strong sense of dissatisfaction with the current state of affairs. There is a strong need to change whatever is necessary to bring ones dreams and visions of life into reality. This week you have the opportunity to make connections between old sources of wisdom and new sources of wisdom coming from the exploration of new frontiers. There is help available to you if you will only open up and accept the help that is being offered. However in order to be able to receive that help you must do your part to build the type of world you want to live in.
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.
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 13th to 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.
