Vibrational Astrology Series Part One - The Vibrations
Have you ever wondered why you didn't identify with your placements?
Maybe you're an Aries Sun but don't quite fit the "strong-willed leader" stereotype.
Perhaps you're an Aquarius Mars, but you find yourself a bit more socially aware than people assume you to be.
Conceivably, you are a Virgo Moon, and that "thoughtful, organized, and precise" typecast fits just fine.
Sometimes, being or having a placement in a certain sign or at a particular degree is not enough for it to be present in your demeanor. Like people, Planets and Signs have energetic frequencies, and operating in alignment with those frequencies will aid in reaching the highest energetic possibility (North Node) of your chart.
Vibrational Astrology is the practice of using Harmonic Charts to magnify the relationships of the planets in the Natal Chart. It emphasizes the importance of planetary configurations above anything else.
It is a contemporary approach to astrology, developed by David Cochrane through his astrology consultations spanning from 1972 to 1981.
Rather than focusing on the sign of the planet, Vibrational Astrology starts with the energy or vibration of the planet and then relates it to the archetypes and characteristics of a specific sign.
The "vibrations" of Vibrational Astrology are what is known to us in Traditional Astrology as Aspects. There are an infinite number of Vibrations as they are derived from factorization, but for the sake of space and time, I will list the most common and important ones, to my simplified understanding.
A note: The higher the vibration, the more internalized the energy.
1V Conjunction - Similar to a Conjunction in Traditional Astrology where the planets and energies work together as one. 1V is also known as Informed Judgement as its said to reference yourself more than any outside source.
2 V Opposition - Polorization. Shared or Conflicting interactions with others.
3 V - Trine - Smooth flow of energy
5 V - Quintile - Maleable energy. Signifies creativity and childlike energy.
7V - Septile - Introspective energy. It signifies the energy we express when we are by ourselves. 7 is associated with focus, precision, and introspection.
11 V - Undecile - The energy of discontent and restlessness. This energy will always feel incomplete due to its inability to feel satisfaction.
13 V - Potential. The energy that acknowledges the feeling of something special within us, and the desire to feel special, and aims to access and express it by any and all means necessary
17 V - Empathy. The energy that allows us to connect with others.
19 V - Analytic Ability. The energy that encourages us to analyze and apply theories to find a solution to a problem or to a system of being. It is a cerebral energy. It focuses on the what, how, and why.
23 V - Autonomy and Free Will. The energy within us that wants to find solutions to our own problems and experiences without having to rely on how to do things traditionally. Individualistic.
29 V - Exploration and Engliughtement. The energy within us that desires to experience a life different to the one we were raised in, not due to a desire to UNDERSTAND the lives of others but a desire to EXPERIENCE a different world view
31 V - Wonder. The energy that allows us to feel the passion of wonder and awe. The energy that causes us to question the deeper meaning of a situation, even when there might not be one. Skepticism.
37 V - Complexity. The energy within you that allows you to form assumptions and views about the world, determined not by anyone but yourself. This highly internalized energy instills a strong moral compass within the person.
41 V - Sense. The energy within you that instills the desire to connect separate concepts and theories to each other to understand the concept as a whole and be able to make sense of it.
43 V - Ego. The energy within you that makes you want to identify who you are at your soul, and connect to it.
47 V - Truth Untold. The energy within you that sees everything wrong with societal norms and aims to change them, digging deep into what is known and unknown, to reform societies knowledge of a situation.
53 V - Fork in the Road. The energy within us that allows us to be aware of the many actions we take and their affect on the paths we walk in the future, but not having fear of the flow of time.
59 V - Preservation. The energy in us that makes us devoted to the comfort of tradition, and therefore seeks to preserve it. With this energy, most of the actions can be identified as being connected to a tradition or subconscious belief.
Powers of 2: Action and Interaction.
4 V - Square (2 x 2) - Taking action, being motivated, determination.
8 V - Semisquare (2 × 2 × 2) - Action with the intention to make a change in society.
16 V - (2 × 2 x 2 x 2) - Internal action. Action with the intention to reach a goal that people arent aware of.
32 V - (2 × 2 x 2 x 2 x 2) - Internalized beliefs stimulate intense actions from a person that often seem subconscious.
Powers of 3: Smooth energy flow. Tendency to stay away from conflict and confrontation.
9V - (3 × 3) - The energy within us that desires to be an active participant and member of a community with a need for communication, harmony, and connection. Attempts to avoid conflict but if not possible, will smooth it over.
27 V - (3 × 3 × 3) - The energy within us that has a strong desire for peace and calmness. A pacifist and will actively go out of their way to avoid conflict at all costs.
Miscellaneous: A note: When it says "Opposition in" it means that that energy is in opposition with a factor in this energy. It doesn't always have to be a bad thing. For example, Decile is 2 and 5. 5 is an Opposition energy, therefore it says "Opposition in 5V"
25 V - (5 x 5) - EXTREME creativity.
36 V - (6 x 6) or (2 × 2 x 3 x 3) - The energy within us that idealizes situations.
Factors: Combined core vibrations that create separate vibrations
6 V (Sextile) - Harmonious interactions with others
10 V - (5 × 2) - (Decile) (Opposition in 5V) - Creative interactions with others
12 V - (4 × 3) - (Semisextile and Quincunx) - Receptive interaction but smooth and flowing. These two aspects are conflicting, so the energy needs to be balanced for it to work.
14 V - (7 × 2) - (Opposition in 7V) - Learning with or being taught by others. Specifically with mastery of a talent. Being trained.
15 V - (5 × 3) - (Trine in 5V) - Free flowing creativity and playfulness.
18 V - (9 x 2) - (Opposition in 9V) - Desire to be included in a community, either in a compatible or incompatible sense.

22 V - (11 x 2) - (Opposition in 11V) - Desire to interact with others, but with a fear of being stifled or watered down by them.
24 V - (8 × 3) (Trine in 8V) and (6 x 4) (Square in 6V) - Has the strength of inspired action and completing goals by themselves, but has issues with collaborating with others.
26 V - (13 × 2) (Opposition in 13V) - Has a desire to be special
28 V - (7 × 4) (Square in 7V) - Has trouble mastering talents. They place too much pressure on themselves to reach said goals.
