The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry
 
Today, Wednesday (10/23/19), the strongest vibrational influence comes from Mercury and Mars joining with Jupiter (1*). This vibrational pattern is looking for something special that may be found in interaction with others or that can be shared with others.  There is a desire to learn new and special things that will expand your understanding of your life.  This is a great time to explore something that has always intrigued you but you have not previously taken the time to learn about it. You are challenged by this vibration to expand your mind and to step back and see the big picture of how your life is unfolding so that you can have a better understanding of what you are doing with your life.

The AstroFrequency(s) for the day (strongest listed first)
{These are modes of operation that are available for you to tap into today}
26 (1*) Need to find something special in interaction with others

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}
 
At 1:20 PM the Sun enters Scorpio For the next month the Sun in Scorpio will be especially focused on intense involvement in work and play and in interactions with others.  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.

The two planet patterns today all contain the Moon and are described below in the Moods of the Moon.
 
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 11:41 PM yesterday, peaking at 1:41 AM, the Moon in Leo is flowing freely (trine) with Jupiter in Sagittarius. This 4 hr period is optimistic, enthusiastic and expansive.  This is a good time to go to a party or to share with friends and loved ones.
Starting at 3:14 AM, peaking at 5:14 AM, the Moon in Leo is acting and agitating (square) with Mercury in Scorpio. This 4 hr period may find the mind and the feelings having trouble working together.  You need to honor both of them in order to take the effective action that is possible at this time.
 
At 3:29 PM the Moon enters Virgo and is there for 2 ½ days bringing the sense of an elusive perfection that you would like to express here on earth.  This can result in a desire to fix things that are not working the way they “should”.
 
Starting at 1:39 PM, peaking at 3:39 PM, the Moon in Virgo is sharing freely (sextile) with the Sun in Scorpio. This 4 hr period has the feelings working smoothly and easily.  This is a nice time to share with friends and loved ones.
Starting at 9:23 PM, peaking at 11:23 PM, the Moon in Virgo is flowing freely (trine) with Uranus in Taurus. This 4 hr period is impulsive and spontaneous.  Let yourself have the freedom to go do something all of a sudden that just comes into your mind.

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.}
 
The Third Quarter Moon was on October 21with the Sun in Libra and Moon in Cancer. It will influence us until the next New Moon on October 27. This Quarter Moon is especially focused on analysis of what really works and what is effective, combined with feelings of wanting to be free to express yourself in your unique way. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A man in the midst of brightening influences” which is about being able to let go of your depressive feelings and open up to new hope or about you closing off to positive shifts that are happening.  The Moon Symbol is “A modern Pocahontas” which encourages you to open up to an understanding of life that tunes into the forces around you that transcend the rational mind and ego recognizing that ancient wisdom and modern exploration of new frontiers need to be combined together in order to reach a deeper understanding of life.

The Full Moon was on October 13 with the Sun in Libra and the Moon in Aries and it will continue to influence you until the next New Moon on October 27.  This is an extremely volatile and intense full moon which could show some violence.  The issue is whether you recognize that you must work with others rather than trying to go it on your own.  The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “A crowd upon a beach” which relates to whether you are revealing who you truly are and being renewed and revitalized or acting in deceptive ways and keeping your distance from others for fear of discovery.  The Moon Symbol is “A pugilist entering the ring”.  This brings a strong sense of being willing to stand up and fight for that which is important to you.  If you do not defend your point of view there will be consequences.

The New Moon was on September 28 with the Sun and Moon joining together in Libra.  This pattern will be influencing us until the next New Moon on October 27. This is a very creative energy, if you free yourself to explore you may discover something special.  There is a need to be active, so be sure to direct your actions in positive ways.  There is also an underlying sense of a mystery that can be explored but probably not completely understood.  The Sabian Symbol for the New Moon is “The dieals of a man abundantly crystallized which is about visualizing your true self which will enable you to see if manifesting in concrete form.  There is a warning about focusing on negative images and beliefs about yourself as this may result in you finding yourself trapped in these emotions and situations.

The Fall Equinox occurred on September 23.  This is when the Sun enters Libra and the days and nights are of equal length.  This pattern influences us for 3 months until the Winter Solstice on December 21.  The Fall is likely to be a time of analysis and evaluation with the truth and long term reality of your experiences being tested.  You may well see or hear of things that are dishonest or deceptive and you will clearly recognize them or have someone reveal to you the deceptions that have happened.  You are strongly oriented towards understanding the true things that have been happening and eliminating anything else. The Sabian Symbol that helps us deal with all this is “A man before a square with a manuscript scroll before him”.  This is about seeing a pattern in front of you that you seek to understand.  Open your intuition, look at the history and the past patterns that lead up to the present.  It is important to see the long term patterns and to consult older sources of information to see the deeper truth that is currently being revealed.

This Eclipse Cycle began on July 2 and lasts until December 26.  This period is about evaluation and consideration of the meaning of your life and your actions and how you want the rest of your life to go. There is a calling for you to open up to a greater awareness and learn to assume responsibility for using that awareness wisely with humility while operating fairly and being real and genuine. This is done by stepping back and getting the objectivity that will enable you to move more effectively towards your dreams recognizing that sometimes the reactions of others to you come from their problems and issues rather than from your actions.  This is about acting from your true self rather than using a façade to cover up who you really are.

Introductory Contact for Mercury: Reworking Patterns of Uranus, Neptune: Turning Forward of Pluto: Final Resolution of Jupiter, 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.}
