The Vibrational Astrology Diary
by Linda Berry 

Today, Wednesday (10/25/2023), the strongest vibrational influence comes from the Sun and Mercury joining with Mars (1*).  This vibrational energy deals with the fundamental interaction between you and the world. What needs to come from inside of you? What is an authentic expression of who you are? How does this related to the way you deal with the world? There is a challenge here to learn more about yourself and what being true to yourself means. There is also a challenge to determine how you are connected into the world and how much the patterns in the world are affecting you and perhaps pushing you off kilter. The vibrational energy today is about energizing your mind and learning more about your relationship to yourself and the world. It is important to develop a better understanding at this time.

The Sabian Symbols of our Featured Planets: Sun, Mercury, Mars >>>
The uplifting message from the featured planet positions that shows the way
through:
You are opening up your awareness and feeling the nature of what is around you experiencing it permeating as you interact with the world around you. You are going out into the rugged dangerous depths of yourself, seeking to break up the rigid structures within you that are keeping you from connecting into the gold of your true self.  You are reaching out to others, sharing companionably with them, forming and renewing feelings of fellowship and bonding, breaking through feelings of alienation; as you’re opening up to healing your lines of connection.

The more dysfunctional expression of this message:
You are closing down refusing to connect into that which is around you blocking yourself off from interactive involvement with the world around you. You are refusing to explore the realms that have opened up within you fearing that you can’t handle what you find.  You are refusing to connect or reconnect with others out of your fear of facing and dealing with past issues and old secrets, disconnecting yourself from those around you, leaving you with a sense of having lost some important part of yourself.

2 Scorpio = Sun [A broken bottle and spilled perfume]  You are opening up your awareness and feeling the nature of what is around you experiencing it permeating as you interact with the world around you and/or you are closing down refusing to connect into that which is around you blocking yourself off from interactive involvement with the world around you

6 Scorpio = Mercury [A gold rush]  You are going out into the rugged dangerous depths of yourself, seeking to break up the rigid structures within you that are keeping you from connecting into the gold of your true self and/or you are refusing to explore the realms that have opened up within you fearing that you can’t handle what you find

10 Scorpio = Mars [A fellowship supper]  You are reaching out to others, sharing companionably with them, forming and renewing feelings of fellowship and bonding, breaking through feelings of alienation; as you’re opening up to healing your lines of connection and/or you are refusing to connect or reconnect with others out of your fear of facing and dealing with past issues and old secrets, disconnecting yourself from those around you, leaving you with a sense of having lost some important part of yourself

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}

Oct 23 – Oct 25 (exact Oct 24) the Sun in Scorpio is flowing freely (trine) with Saturn in Pisces. This vibe is decreasing fading out around 3 AM on Oct. 25. This vibrational pattern is about a flowing sense of exactly what is the best most effective thing to do in every situation. There is a strong sense of responsibility with this vibrational energy.

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 9:56 PM yesterday, peaking at 11:56 PM yesterday, the Moon in Pisces is sharing freely (sextile) with Jupiter in Taurus. This 4 hr period brings a sense of emotional expansion and optimism and a desire to reach out and interact with others socially

Starting at 3:52 AM, peaking at 5:52 AM, the Moon in Pisces is opposing Venus in Virgo. In this 4 hr period you are especially attracted to beauty that has a history to it. You also want to share with the people that you have a history with. You treasure deep soul connections that are built out of the history contained in the objects and people around you.

Starting at 2:35 PM, peaking at 4:35 PM, the Moon in Pisces is sharing freely (sextile) with Uranus in Taurus. In this 4 hr period you are wanting to share spontaneous exciting experiences with your friends and companions. You need the freedom to be able to impulsively do what you feel like in this moment.

Starting at 8:22 PM, peaking at 10:22 PM, the Moon in Pisces is joining with Neptune in Pisces. This 4 hr period is about wanting to feel the magical awesomeness of your dreams and visions and to have these be the center of the way you are living your life. You are likely to find yourself caught up in your dreams and not very connected into the dull boring everyday reality.

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 21 the First Quarter Moon occurred with the Moon in Capricorn and the Sun in Libra. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the Full Moon Lunar Eclipse on October 28. This vibrational energy is acting based on a compelling need for your personal sense of beauty and proportion. This can involve an irrational response. There is a restless seeking, a reaching out seeking direct participation in a rich expansive beauty that flows among all the people involved. The Sabian Symbol for the Sun is “Humanity seeking to Bridge the Span of Knowledge”. This involves reaching out to span the generations and being open to the transfer of knowledge from others as you are seeking to transfer your knowledge to others. The Moon Symbol is “A Woman reading Tea Leaves” which brings greater clarity about the hidden level of reality as you open up your intuitive awareness and put aside your skepticism so that you are able to take responsibility for your impact on everything around you.

On October 14, 2023 the New Moon Solar Eclipse occurs with the Sun and Moon in Libra. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the next Solar Eclipse on April 8, 2024. This vibrational energy is particularly oriented towards involvement in creative groups. There is a desire to explore without an agenda and see what wonders you can find. This involves a passion for learning and applying what you have learned. There is a desire to expand emotionally at a pace you can handle effectively. There is also a need to go out and act and express yourself, make your life happen. The Sabian Symbol for the Eclipse is “A Child giving Birds a Drink at a Fountain”. This is about drawing from the fountain of spiritual nourishment, replenishing yourself and generously sharing with those around you who are not able to obtain it for themselves.

On September 23, the Fall Equinox occurred as the Sun entered Libra. This vibrational energy will be influencing us until the Winter Solstice on December 21. At the Fall Equinox day and night are of equal length and we are moving towards the shorter days of Fall and Winter. This vibrational pattern is showing the Sun in relationship to Neptune and Pluto bringing a compulsive focus on your dreams and ideals and the potential for them to flow into realization in harmony with other people. There is a lot of mental energy with the potential to learn and develop new ideas and to try to act on your ideas and possibly get frustrated and angry if you are opposed. The desire is to bridge the gap in understanding and transmit to others what you have learned. There is also the potential for expanding your spiritual understandings during the Fall. The Sabian symbol for the Sun-Moon relationship is “Two Fairies on a Moonlit night”. You may discover two amazing, wonderful magical potentials illuminated in the darkness within you, the sensitive receptive potential and the potential to act in effective ways that bring your dreams to life, showing you that you are capable of being more than you ever dreamed of. On the flip side you may be misunderstanding what you are perceiving and getting caught up in illusion and fantasy which can result in being confused and irresponsible.

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 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.

The Retrograde Diary: NO DEGREE CHANGES TODAY >> Reworking of Jupiter, Uranus, Neptune: Turning Forward of Saturn, Pluto {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 “!!!”}
