The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry*
Today, Wednesday (7/29/20), the strongest vibrational influence comes from Jupiter joining with Saturn and Pluto (1*). We return once more to the foundation pattern for this year. This is the process of facing ourselves and taking the necessary steps in expanding self-awareness that will bring personal growth. There are changes that are going to happen and we can work with them or fight them, but they will come. This core energy is combining with at this time with a sense of restless dissatisfaction and a strong sense that there must be a better place, a better way of doing things. Recognize that each of us is responsible for identifying and removing the blocks within us that keep us from being the beautiful souls that we truly are in our depths.
The Sabian Symbols of our Featured Planets: Jupiter, Saturn and Pluto
Today the featured planets are three underlying symbols of great impact this year.
It is important to periodically review these symbols and the lessons they have to teach us this year. This is about making a deeper connection to the stability that underlies reality as you perceive more of the fundamental truths that support this realm of time and space. You are learning the many genuine, precious, beautiful and useful things that there are within this realm. This enables you to continue in the pursuit of your life’s work despite obstacles and defeats.
| 25 Capricorn = Jupiter, Pluto |
| An oriental-rug dealer |
| You are displaying genuine, precious, beautiful, and useful products and gifts, offering them to others at a fair price and/or you are misrepresenting the value and significance of your products and gifts seeking to gain an advantage or take advantage of others |
| 1 Aquarius = Jupiter, Saturn |
| An old adobe mission |
| You are studying the shells remaining of ancient spiritual truths, making a deeper connection to the stability underlying reality as you open up to varying perspectives on the truth and/or you are dogmatically pushing your beliefs on others, believing that you know the one and only true way, seeking to force other people to follow your beliefs |
| 23 Capricorn = Saturn, Pluto |
| Two awards for bravery in war |
| You are receiving recognition for having continued to work and struggle towards your goal despite all obstacles and defeats and/or you are strutting around seeking praise and acknowledgement for your actions, overvaluing yourself, seeking to manipulate others in order to gain rewards that you may not deserve |

The Dancing 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 first, followed by the Moods of the Moon}
Jul 29 – Jul 31 (exact Jul 30) Mercury in Cancer is opposing Jupiter in Capricorn. This vibe begins to influence us around 8 PM and is increasing in influence until it peaks at 10:17 AM on July 30 then decreasing fading out around 1 AM on July 31. This vibration encourages you to step back from your involvements with other people and look at the big picture of how your interaction is fitting into the larger perspective of the world around you.
Jul 18- Aug 7 (exact Jul 27) Jupiter in Capricorn is sharing freely (sextile) with Neptune in Pisces. This vibe is decreasing fading out around 2 AM on August 7. This vibration is especially focused on expanding your dreams through sharing with others in harmonious ways and through collaboration with like minded people.
The Moods of the Moon
{Remember that the quick Moon patterns impact our moods and feelings for a window of a
couple of hours either side of their peak time.}
Starting at 10:01 PM yesterday, peaking at 12:01 AM right after midnight, the Moon in Scorpio is sharing freely (sextile) with Saturn in Capricorn. This 4 hr period has you evaluating your feelings and your behaviors seeking to determine which ones are really important long term and which ones are not and thus not worth paying much attention to.
At 3:25 AM, the Moon enters Sagittarius. The Moon in Sagittarius brings exuberant feelings and a desire to explore your external world and your internal world. This 2 ½ days is a great time to explore someplace you have never been or to learn something new that you have been wondering about.
Starting at 1:46 PM, peaking at 3:46 PM, the Moon in Sagittarius is flowing freely (trine) with the Sun in Leo. This 4 hr period has the emotions well balanced. This is an excellent time to be working on important projects.
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 27 the First Quarter Moon occurred with the Sun in Leo and the Moon in Scorpio. This pattern will be influencing us until the Full Moon on August 3. This vibrational pattern has a strong emphasis on using your feelings of attraction to your dreams as motivation to act on your dreams and as if your dreams were a reality. There is also the advice that stepping back and looking at the big picture will help you further your dreams. This is a very action oriented quarter moon. However, it is important to spend some time turning inward and really getting in touch with what your dreams are and what you want to have happen in your life. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “Rock Formations at the edge of a precipice” which is about release any rigid patterns inside you that you have been trapping yourself in. It is critical that you let go and open up. The Moon Symbol is “A massive, rocky shore”. This indicates that you are crossing the rough and rugged shore that borders the spiritual realm until you release some old established patterns and shift into more of a feeling of love and compassion. Ask yourself what blocks you from operating out of love and compassion and see if you can forgive yourself and let go. There is love there waiting for you to open up to it and embrace it.
On July 20 the New Moon occurred with the Sun in Cancer and the Moon in Capricorn. This pattern will be influencing us until the next New Moon on August 18. This vibrational pattern brings a sensitivity to what those around you are experiencing with a strong desire to take action that will lead to a better future for everyone. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun and Moon is “A Muse weighing twins”. This is about recognizing that you consider all the factors and collect as much information as you reasonably can and then you make an intuitive decision about which way to go. You are warned to not seek perfection, it will keep you from making a decision and doing what needs to be done.
The Eclipse Season was from June 4 through July 5 and the patterns of this season will be in effect at least until the next Eclipse Season starts on November 30. The Eclipses begin by helping us to recognize that there is something special within each of us and that it is important for each of us to communicate our ideas clearly recognizing that there is a give and take to life as we share with each other. It then reminded us that we need to be adaptable and realize that we are being called to a new orientation to life. Each of us need to face our self-centeredness and reorganize ourselves to more effectively respond to the demands of ourselves and our world. We need to develop a bigger focus that encompasses all of the universe recognizing that we are part of something bigger than ourselves while at the same time being open to ancient truths that may contain wisdom that will help us to be more aware and more effective.
The Sun entered Cancer on June 20. This is the Summer Solstice, one of the 4 seasonal turning points for the year. This will be influencing us for 3 months until the Fall Equinox on September 22. This vibration is about working things through in your mind and then acting on what you figure out. The Sabian Symbol for the Moon is “Winter Frost in the Woods”. This is about each of us having all the excess trimmed away so that we can connect in with the bare essential structure within us and connect in with our innate strength. You deal with feelings of fear and loss by connecting into the core of yourself, the spiritual center of your being. This leads to you opening yourself up to the wonder and mystery of life and developing a greater awareness of your connection with others.
The Retrograde Diary: DEGREE CHANGE: Venus, Mars, Saturn Note that Mars has moved into its shadow period prior to retrograding.
Introductory Contact for Mars: Turning Backward of Uranus, Neptune: Reworking Patterns of Jupiter, Saturn, Pluto: Resolution of Venus
{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.}
