The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry*
Today, Wednesday (11/17/2021), the strongest vibrational influence comes from the Moon and Mars joining with Uranus (2*). Today’s vibrational pattern brings a need for freedom to act and explore in your own way. There is a need for physical activity and competition is appreciated and enjoyed. Being in the moment is a central focus but it includes interacting with others and sharing spontaneity and surprises. There is a strong desire to achieve something right now in this moment. You want to tune into the moment and act on what you sense. Today this means give yourself the space to be impulsive and do what you feel moved to do in each moment.
The AstroFrequency(s) for the day (strongest listed first)
23 (2*) Follows One’s Personal Intuition; Takes Risks
The Sabian Symbols of our Featured Planets: Moon, Mars, Uranus
The uplifting message from the featured planet positions that shows the way through: You are facing the baggage you carry within you; working through it piece by piece. You are inventing experimental techniques that express your unique gifts and awarenesses, moving beyond established structures. The more dysfunctional expression of this message: You are experiencing the totality of all of your baggage at once feeling overburdened and unable to cope with the weight of all of it. You are making things up as you go along, operating in risky ways, without any basis in actual observation, refusing to consider the consequences of your actions.

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}
Nov 17 – Nov 20 (exact Nov 19) Venus in Capricorn is flowing freely (trine) with Uranus in Taurus. This vibe begins to influence us around 9 PM and is increasing in influence until it peaks at 1:08 AM on Nov 19 then decreasing fading out around 6 AM on Nov 20. This vibration brings a flow of spontaneous feeling of attraction to beauty. This can be a very special romantic experience. It can also be about experiencing an especially beautiful natural scene that moves you deeply. Going to some place that is inspiring for you could bring a transcendent experience today.
Nov 17 – Nov 19 (exact Nov 18) Mercury in Scorpio is flowing freely (trine) with Neptune in Pisces. This vibe begins to influence us around 8 PM and is increasing in influence until it peaks at 10:37 AM on Nov 18 then decreasing fading out around 1 AM on Nov 19. This vibration is about your mind being involved in wonderful amazing, out-of this world concepts. You are likely to have some new ideas at this time that may be revelations to you. This is definitely a time to keep a notebook with you to record what may come into your mind.
Nov 16 – Nov 18 (exact Nov 17) Mars in Scorpio is opposing Uranus in Taurus. This vibe is increasing in influence until it peaks at 12:23 PM then decreasing fading out around 9 PM on Nov 18.

This vibration brings a sense of purpose and mission that you are encouraged to share with others in a gentle understanding way.

You may well find there is an overlap between your mission and someone else’s where you can join together and be more effective than either of you can be alone.

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 November 11 the First Quarter Moon occurred with the Sun in Scorpio and the Moon in Aquarius. This vibrational pattern will be influencing us until the Full Moon on November 19. This Vibrational Pattern helps us appreciate the people around us and the unique ways they express themselves as they contribute to our lives. There is a tendency this week to make our own decisions about how we will proceed without consulting with others. We need to figure it out for ourselves. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A Woman drawing two dark Curtains aside”. This challenges us to face the polarity within ourselves and to open up to the ways our own imbalances may affect others. The Symbol for the Moon is “A big white Dove, a Message Bearer” which is about being open to the gentle messages within you, the little nudges, as well as being aware of when something that someone else is saying is actually a message for you. You are challenged to open up to spirit in a clear way. Be open to the ways that spirit is communicating with you and helping you through your dark places.
On November 4, the New Moon occurred with the Sun and Moon in Scorpio. This vibrational pattern will be influencing us until the next New Moon on December 4. This vibrational pattern brings the potential for tremendous creativity involving ideas that just appear in your mind that are new and innovative. This is a time to pay attention to the things that pop into your mind and write them down in a notebook. They will seem obvious when they appear but you will be likely to find they fade away if you don’t write them down. The Sabian Symbol for both the Sun and the Moon is “An Inventor Experimenting”. This is about trying different ways of expressing the unique gifts you have. You are encouraged to move beyond established structures but to use careful observation and analysis to develop your ideas.
The Fall Equinox occurred on September 22 as the Sun entered Libra with the Moon in Aries. This vibrational pattern will be influencing us until the Winter Solstice on December 21. This vibrational pattern has a strong emphasis on the way the past is affecting us. There is the potential to get a broader understanding of how we are being influenced by the past and the potential for sudden insights and shifts to occur. There is a need to reconcile the past with the present and to face the way we have been being influenced by past patterns. The Sabian Symbol for the Moon is “The Gate to the Garden of Desire” which is about getting up the courage to move into a new state even though you don’t know what dangers and revelations you may have to face. There is a danger in withdrawing that you will never be able to reach your dreams.
On June 10 a New Moon Solar Eclipse occurred with the Sun and Moon in Gemini. This finishes the Eclipse Season and these patterns will be influencing us until the start of the next Eclipse Season on November 19. This Solar Eclipse is especially working on our mental patterns. It brings a focus on the mind and how your dreams and visions of life are being reflected in your experience. It is about exploring the world and interacting with what is around you in playful and creative ways. There is the potential here for discovering new relationships and connections with the people and the environment around you. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun and Moon is “A Cafeteria” which focuses on the abundance of choices available to you in your world and your opportunity to select which of these choices is right for you, which will nourish you and your life. When you know what is right for you then you need to deliberately select it, pay for it and make it a part of your essence. It is important that you only take what you truly need, leaving the rest for others.
On May 26 a Full Moon Lunar Eclipse occurred with the Sun in Gemini and the Moon in Sagittarius. This vibration will be influencing us until the New Moon Solar Eclipse on June 10. This is the start of the Eclipse Season. This vibration is focused on taking action and doing the things that it is essential for you to do to express yourself authentically. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “Drilling for Oil” which refers to you digging down into the ancient strata looking for that which has been formed deep within you. You recognize the pressure that these old structures generate and seek to release the energy that is bound up in these deep patterns. There is a warning not to scatter your energy in superficial pursuits that will let you avoid the deep work that is called for at this time. The Moon Symbol is “A Game of Cricket”. This refers to the process of learning the rules of interfacing with the physical and spiritual realms and following these rules so you can effectively play the game. It cautions against acting arbitrarily, refusing to play by the rules of the game and that if you do you will likely receive harsh reactions and perhaps be rejected by others.
The Retrograde Diary: DEGREE CHANGES TODAY: Venus
Introductory Contact for Venus: Reworking of Uranus: Turning Forward of Jupiter, Neptune, Pluto: Resolution of Saturn
{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 “!”}
