The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry*
Today, Wednesday (05/10/2023), the strongest vibrational influence comes from the Sun and Moon joining with Uranus (1*). This vibrational pattern is a flowing energy that seeks to interact harmoniously with other in a community. There is a tendency to explore the world around you developing an organic understanding out of your experiences. There is the potential here for creative expression. This includes a strong feeling of needing to be free to express your feelings spontaneously. There may be sudden insights that open up your understanding in new ways. (For VA Students: 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24, 10, 13, 27, 30, 16)

10 (1*) Play and Creative Exploration with Others
The Sabian Symbols of our Featured Planets: Sun, Moon, Uranus >>> The uplifting message from the featured planet positions that shows the way through: You are feeling a sense of yourself as a newly formed being in your own right. 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. You are being guided by hidden messages that may not be apparent to others that attune you to the spiritual realms. The more dysfunctional expression of this message: You are reacting in fear and rejecting the new pattern rising up within you. 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. You are convincing yourself that your personal beliefs and attitudes are divine messages, fooling yourself and others as you’re seeking to prove that you’re special and better than those around you.

The 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 a couple of hours either side of the exact time of the aspect. The longer patterns are stronger and so are listed here, followed by a section on the Moods of the Moon}
May 9 – May 20(exact May 12) Mercury in Taurus is sharing freely (sextile) with Saturn in Pisces. This vibe is increasing in influence until it peaks at 4:42 AM on May 12 then decreasing fading out around 2 PM on May 21. This vibration is about a shared experience of analyzing your personal interactions to figure out how to connect in more deeply and genuinely.
May 8 – May 10 (exact May 9) the Sun in Taurus is joining with Uranus in Taurus. This vibe is decreasing, fading out around 6:30PM. This vibration is strongly focused in spontaneous free expression in the moment. There is an unusually strong negative reaction to authority and control imposed from outside of oneself. Be sure to take a second to double check quick moves as there is a potential here to move impulsively without thinking of all of the consequences and end up in an accident.
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 1:32 AM, peaking at 3:32 AM, the Moon in Capricorn is flowing freely (trine) with Uranus in Taurus. In this 4hr period you have an easy sense of flexibility and ability to respond in the immediate moment in an organic way based on a sense of objective awareness
Starting at 2:20 AM, peaking at 4:20 AM, the Moon in Capricorn is flowing freely (trine) with the Sun in Taurus. In this 4hr period your mood and emotional feelings are likely to be balanced and soft and you are just more likely to feel in harmony with yourself. This is a good time to engage in projects you need to do.
Starting at 10:38 AM, peaking at 12:38 PM, the Moon in Capricorn is opposing Mars in Cancer. In this 4 hr period you have a lot of energy that can be shared with others in group projects or group activities like sports or exercise. It is important to guide this energy into positive channels that flow through you so that you can use it constructively.
Starting at 3:03 PM, peaking at 5:03 PM, 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 5:52 PM, peaking at 7:52 PM, the Moon in Capricorn is acting and agitating (square) with Jupiter in Aries. In this 4 hr period your emotions will tend to expand. If you are feeling good, this can be great. If you are not feeling good, then this can be difficult. See if you can direct your feelings and thoughts to things that are pleasant and positive and you will be rewarded with some really good feelings.
At 10:05 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.
Starting at 8:40 PM, peaking at 10:40 PM, the Moon in Aquarius is joining with Pluto in Aquarius. 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.
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 May 5, the Full Moon Lunar Eclipse occurred with the Moon in Scorpio opposing the Sun in Taurus. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the next Lunar Eclipse on October 28. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the next Lunar Eclipse on October 28. This vibrational pattern is expansive and seeking to understand the different ways people can understand the world. This is often done by participating in a culture that is different from your culture of origin. There is a strong need for the freedom to express yourself and to act on your feelings. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A Bridge being built across a Gorge” which helps you connect to the next more expansive level of awareness beyond where you currently are operating. The Moon Symbol is “A Gold Rush”. This helps you find and identify the rigid patterns within you that are keeping you from connecting into the gold of your true self. You can break up these rigid structures and open up to a deeper truer understanding of yourself.
On April 20 the New Moon a Solar Eclipse occurred with the Sun and the Moon in Aries. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the next Solar Eclipse on October 14. This eclipse in Aries emphasizes our connection with ourselves and encourages you to find a way to do what you feel called to do deep within you. There is a focus on interacting with the world and exploring whatever we are drawn to. This process can be very creative. And with this vibration it leads to taking actions based on your discoveries. The Sabian Symbol for this eclipse is “A Duck Pond and its Brood”. This is about recognizing that you are operating within a bounded,limited sphere of activity where you are inter-linked with a particular group of people. It is important to realize that you are interconnected with people in a larger realm and to realize that you need to take into account this larger realm rather than just focusing on the needs of your group.
On March 20 the Spring Equinox occurred as the Sun enters Aries. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the Summer Solstice on June 21. This is the balancing point of the year when the days and nights are of equal length. This year’s Spring Equinox brings a strong feeling of needing to have your ideas be exceprtional and amazing. The vibration for Spring is deeply involved in sharing other people’s stories and there is a tendency to act based on the things you have learned from others to seek to make the lives of those around you better. The Sabian Symbol for the distance from the Sun to the Moon is “A master instructing his pupil. This is about participating in the transfer of higher knowledge and wisdom, being open to receiving deep insights from unexpected places. This energy becomes distorted if you claim a superior status and special privileges based on your position. This is about recognizing the worth and authority of each person.
The Retrograde Diary: DEGREE CHANGES TODAY: Neptune >> Introductory phase of Saturn, Neptune: Turning Backward of Pluto: Reworking of Mercury: Resolution of Uranus {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 “!”}
