The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry*
For the last two days and today, Wednesday (10/14/20), the strongest vibrational influence comes from Jupiter and Saturn joining with Pluto (1*). We return once more to the foundation pattern for this year. This pattern is building towards the last Jupiter-Pluto conjunction on November 12 and the Jupiter-Saturn conjunction on December 21. 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 the Sun Mars and Pluto bringing a very intense focus on action and accomplishing your goals. You feel like you just have to do this. There is a lot of energy here so use it to get your job done.
The Sabian Symbols of our Featured Planets: Jupiter, Saturn, Pluto
The uplifting message from the featured planet positions that shows the way through: You are receiving recognition for having continued to work and struggle towards your goal despite all obstacles and defeats. 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.
The most dysfunctional expression of this message: 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. 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.

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}
Oct 14 – Oct 16 (exact Oct 15) the Sun in Libra is acting and agitating (square) with Pluto in Capricorn. This vibe begins to influence us around 7 AM and is increasing in influence until it peaks at 6;15 AM on October 15 then decreasing fading out around 6 AM on October 16. This vibe brings a great deal of intensity into your life. You are prone to overreact to the things happening to you if you do not compensate for the extra intensity.
Oct 13 – Oct 14 (exact Oct 13) the Sun in Libra is opposing Mars in Aries. This vibe is decreasing fading out around 2 PM. This vibe is extremely energetic and is intent on doing what it needs to do whether other people approve or not. The energy here needs to be used. These are days when more physical expenditure of energy than usual is called for.
Sep 27 – Oct 20 (exact Oct 12) Jupiter in Capricorn is sharing freely (sextile) with Neptune in Pisces. This vibe is decreasing fading out around 6 AM on October 20. This vibration is about opening up to our dreams and expanding them making them more a part of our lives.
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 8:55 PM yesterday, peaking at 10:55 PM yesterday, the Moon in Virgo is joining with Venus in Virgo. This 4 hr period is a time for close sharing and bonding. This is a good time to spend with those you really love and care for.
Starting at 5:47 AM, peaking at 7:47 AM, the Moon in Virgo is opposing Neptune in Pisces. This 4 hr period is involved in your dreams and visions for how you would like life to go. This is a good time to share your dreams with others.
Starting at 6:12 AM, peaking at 8:12 AM, the Moon in Virgo is flowing freely (trine) with Jupiter in Capricorn. This 4 hr period is expansive and enthusiastic. This is a good time for social gatherings.
Starting at 11:55 AM, peaking at 1:55 PM, the Moon in Virgo is flowing freely (trine) with Pluto in Capricorn. This 4 hr period helps you tune into deep patterns that are still influencing your current behavior giving you a chance to evaluate and perhaps change those patterns.
Starting at 4:47 PM, peaking at 6:47 PM, the Moon in Virgo is flowing freely (trine) with Saturn in Capricorn. This 4 hr period is busy evaluating your life and your actions. Are you working with things that have long term consequences? And are those consequences the ones you really want?
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 October 9 the Third Quarter Moon Phase occurred with the Sun in Libra and the Moon in Cancer. This vibration will be influencing us until the next New Moon on October 16. This vibrational pattern brings a sense of dissatisfaction and restlessness and a strong need to find a different way of living that will work better. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “Two men placed under arrest”. This focuses on beliefs and patterns of behavior that are out of control. There may be a refusal to respect the rights of others. There may also be rebellion against societal expectations and controls to such an extent that it is necessary to restrain some people. The Moon Symbol is “A hen scratching for her chicks” which involves your embracing your responsibility to care for other and searching for more knowledge and new concepts that will enable you to fulfill these responsibilities. There is a strong push pull between anarchist forces and forces that are operating from a sense of love and caring.
On October 1 the Full Moon occurred with the Moon in Aries and the Sun in Libra. This vibration will be influencing us until the next New Moon on October 16. This vibration is focused on us not knowing the answer to how things will unfold but challenging us to look at the possibilities and see what makes the most sense to develop and work hard to make that happen. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A canoe approaching safety through dangerous waters”. This is about beginning to move beyond the dangers of control patterns and emotional rebellion into a place of harmony within yourself. The Moon Symbol is “A man teaching new forms for old symbols” which encourages you to learn and then teach the deeper truer meanings as you are able to revise and expand your understanding of older beliefs and symbols. This is a time to move to a different understanding, to change old attitudes, symbols and beliefs.
On September 22, the Sun enters Libra. This is the Fall Equinox when the days and nights are equal. This vibration will be influencing us until the Winter Solstice on December 21. This Vibrational Pattern calls us to look inside of ourselves and see who we really are and whether we are being true to ourselves. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A Butterfly made perfect by a dart through it” which involves recognizing that your personal understanding is limited and opening up to learn and flexibly relate to others and adjust based on how they are perceiving you and what they expect of you. The Moon Symbol is “A drowning man rescued”. This is about seeking help to better ground yourself and to take responsibility for your actions, learning how to be more effective.
On September 17, the New Moon occurred with the Sun and Moon joining in Virgo and will be influencing us until the next New Moon on October 16. This Vibrational Pattern is about doing the things you feel you must do. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun and Moon is “A Boy with a censer” which is about modeling yourself after those who are more spiritually experienced and developed than you seeking to open yourself up and expand your awareness recognizing that you have responsibility both for yourself and for what you can do for others.
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 Retrograde Diary: DEGREE CHANGES: Mars, Jupiter
Turning Back of Mercury: Reworking Patterns of Mars, Uranus: Turning Forward of Saturn, Neptune, Pluto: Resolution of Jupiter
{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 “!”}
