The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry*

Yesterday and today, Wednesday (05/31/2023), the strongest vibrational influence comes from the Sun joining with Jupiter and Neptune (1*). The strongest vibrational pattern today is involved in exploration and interaction with the world around you that is building an organic structure that can be acted out in creative ways that will be harmonious for everyone involved. This is about expansion of your dreams and visions that are constrained by the needs of those around you. There is a need to take into account the needs of those around you and to find compromises that work for everyone. (For VA Students: 10, 20, 30)

The AstroFrequency(s) for the day (strongest listed first)
31 (1*) Embracing the mystery that we cannot know and thus being skeptical of simplistic answers given to life’s questions
30 (1*) Creative Harmonious Shared Interaction with Others

The Sabian Symbols of our Featured Planets: Sun, Jupiter, Neptune >>>
Thuplifting message from the featured planet positions that shows the way through:
You are developing a greater awareness of the heavy load of personal baggage that you are carrying, as its weight is causing you to lose your stability and start to fall, and realizing that you must let go and lighten your load in order to recover. You are seeing a vision of your heart’s desire and feeling inspired by this vision, enabling you to start seeing the things that would block you from pursuing your dream.  You are experiencing a sense of fullness, completion and wholeness as you tune into the fertile potency within you that enables you to manifest anything you truly desire.

The more dysfunctional expression of this message:
You are blaming others for your failures; seeing them as the baggage that is weighing you down. You are being caught up in an illusion of great abundance and fooling yourself into thinking that you already have what you want in your hand and that you don’t need to do anything to get to it.  You are being caught up in pride and possessiveness, jealously trying to protect all that is yours and failing.

10 Gemini = Sun [An airplane falling] You are developing a greater awareness of the heavy load of personal baggage that you are carrying, as its weight is causing you to lose your stability and start to fall, and realizing that you must let go and lighten your load in order to recover and/or you are blaming others for your failures; seeing them as the baggage that is weighing you down

4 Taurus = Jupiter [The rainbow’s pot of gold] You are seeing a vision of your heart’s desire and feeling inspired by this vision, enabling you to start seeing the things that would block you from pursuing your dream and/or you are being caught up in an illusion of great abundance and fooling yourself into thinking that you already have what you want in your hand and that you don’t need to do anything to get to it

28 Pisces = Neptune [A fertile garden under the full moon]  You are experiencing a sense of fullness, completion and wholeness as you tune into the fertile potency within you that enables you to manifest anything you truly desire and/or you are being caught up in pride and possessiveness, jealously trying to protect all that is yours and failing

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}

The two planet patterns today all include the Moon. See Below.

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 8:53 AM, peaking at 10:53 AM, 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.

At 7:45 PM the Moon enters Scorpio For the next 2 ½ days the Moon in Scorpio can tend to get very emotionally intense.  The desire is to merge with the people you are involved with and with the projects you are working on.  This can be uncomfortable for those not used to it as you can feel like you are being swallowed up.  If it gets too much, just step back for a couple of minutes and take a breath, or even take a walk around the block to help you temporarily disconnect.

Starting at 6:02 PM, peaking at 8:02 PM, the Moon in Scorpio is acting and agitating (square) with Pluto in Aquarius. In this 4 hr period you may feel a need to act based on deep feelings within you that may come to the surface at this time.  Ask yourself whether you are responding to the past or the present. Try to not put past feeling on the people you are currently interacting with.

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 27, the First Quarter Moon Phase occurs with the Moon in Virgo and the Sun in Gemini. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the Full Moon on June 3. This vibrational pattern brings a feeling of restless dissatisfaction and a need to seek for new or at least better answers about your life. There is a recognition that you need to evaluate the choices you have been making and open yourself up to new ways of understanding your situation. There is a driving energy here and you are likely to go ahead and take action right now. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “An Old-Fashioned Well”. This helps you tap into previously built structures, the deep well within you , finding a way back into the universal source of nurturing love and wisdom. This lets you quench your thirst and enables you to share with others. The Symbol for the Moon is “A Harem” which helps you to have a greater receptivity to the potential for new life in yourself and others.

On May 19 the New Moon occurred with the Sun and Moon in Taurus. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the next New Moon on June 18. This vibrational energy pattern brings a sense of restless dissatisfaction as you seek to figure out what are the foundational patterns you are dealing with. Thus you find yourself reaching out seeking to discover something that you may have missed in your previous evaluation. The Sabian Symbol for the New Moon is “Two Cobblers working at a Table”. This challenges you to explore different points of view and not hold onto one point of view considering it to be the only way to understand the pattern you are working on.

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 your connection within yourself 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 you 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 exceptional 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: Mercury leaves its shadow today >> Introductory phase of Saturn, Uranus: Turning Backward of Neptune, Pluto: Resolution of Mercury {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 “!”}
