Hi all- so I know recently there was a discussion on the liliths in synastry and I found an older topic about it natally but am still a little iffy...I was wondering if people could share their experiences if they have a prominent Lilith natally. I have Dark Moon Lilith conjunct my ASC and NN and BML opp. my Moon and am still a bit confused about how this manifests so others experiences or thoughts would be very appreciated. Thanks

I'm still personally foggy on the distinctions between Black Moon Lilith and Dark Moon Lilith--they aren't the same thing? And then I know the difference with asteroid Lilith.

I would think your conjunctions to ASC and NN would give you an intense independence and an ability to wield magic, through the fierce sense of wanting to peel away the surface of things. The placement could initially make you come off as a raving b*tch! Or at least to people who are threatened by that kind of power. Since it's your AC rather than your Sun or another personal planet, your Lilith energy would manifest most in how you begin new things, and how you come across in the beginning or on the surface. But with the Nodal conjunction, something about that Lilith energy is also a big part of your destiny.

I would read up on Lilith as a copntroversial mythological figure. Like many mythological and historical woman who were powerful, could wield magic, and were not "nice", she was a grave threat to the order of things.

My own Liliths are not prominent natally, although BML is pretty much the only thing I've got in my 1st house.

Benedict Moon posted a thread about her Liliths (both conjunct her Moon) recently--did you find it? Hopefully she will weigh in here.

Ultimately I think prominent Lilith conjunctions, when used constructively, would be very very cool, bringing a depth and intensity to that area of your chart. Then again, I also love black cats, Friday the 13th, and Pluto transits.

I am also so intrested in lilith. I dont know either how it manifest in the life. I try to find it out.
I have mean BML in SAG conj my ceres in house 5. No one are stupid with my children. I always fight for them. Maybe its lilith. I dont know.

I also have asteroid lilith conj my DC/ANGEL and It opposite my sun. I have psyche in that conj but I think its to far away just from lilith. I am unsure if its count. Lilith 12 and psyche 8, DC and ANGEL 10,5. I must say I cant find out how It shows out in my life. There is no special in my 7 house in my life in aqua.

true BML in capricorn but there is no aspect to no other planet. Its in my 6 house.

I have BML exactly opposite my Sun, asteroid Lilith opposite my Chart Ruler (Mercury) by 2 degrees and oscillating Lilith (DML?) conjunct my IC by 1 degree. So all of them are prominent in my chart.

I am a feminist (NOT the type thats like "IM A FEMINIST" as they grind on a stripper pole while calling other girls "b*tches").

i don't know the difference either, but my BML (that's the one on the drop down menu at astro.com? well it's that one, whichever it is) is conjunct my vertex and opposing my stellium of sun/mercury/mars in aquarius (by 3,1,1 degs). it is the fourth leg of my t-square.

i feel like what it represents for me is some kind of latent feminine power. not frilly-sweet femininity, but the kind that pierces through all the bullshat and celebrates true femininity. it's like part of me is screaming at the world 'wake the eff up!' and wants all women to feel strong and powerful without a need to play the games we all tend to play in seeking security and union with men. to get women to really love themselves and command respect from men, rather than feeling we must resort to competition between ourselves, or playing into the crap abstractions men tend to make of the thing called 'love'. based in their feeling the need to compete within their own gender, etc. so that we may, thusly, relax into our unions with men without the worries and the games threatening to tear it apart. to make strength, dignity, and a radiance that does not depend on diminishing anyone else's light a priority. to celebrate what is and enjoy it, fully.

something like that. i feel this in me really strongly but i tend to not do much about it. though i always feel the need to write about it or something. get it out.


ETA: i also have a boomerang involving the opposition between my moon and uranus (also in my t-square). uranus is the focus there, and it is in scorpio. it seems as though i'm trying to tap into the essence of INTIMACY and the balancing act between my boomerang (like a yod, kinda) and my t-square is driving this intense need to get through the bullcrap stuff via lilith/leo energy to what intimacy is really about. interesting.

Glad there are feminists here.

How do the Liliths play out in a man's chart, then? Since they seem to be about such an intense female archetype?

i wonder if it's maybe where they are receptive to that energy? or in what aspect of life they perceive it most?

I do think that in any chart, it might bring a kind of witchiness--an ability to exert a mysterious power on the world.

Yeah I still don't know what to think about whether the Liliths are all describing the same thing are if there is a slight, but relevant, difference between them. DML in my chart is far off from asteroid Lilith (the one on the pull down menu of astro.com) and BML. BML and Lilith are pretty much in the same spot though. From what I can gather in reading about them it SEEMS like BML and Lilith may have more to do with socially acceptable behaviors/ways of thinking about gender equality whereas DML is more tied to our psyche and thus more inwardly involved. Could be wrong though...I found this about DML, don't know if its familiar to anyone-

"During my years of astrological practice, I have come to use the Dark Moon in all my chart analyses, as a complement to interpretating the Moon. It would never occur to me to neglect this influence. The Dark Moon describes our relationship to the absolute, to sacrifice as such, and shows how we let go. In transit, the Dark Moon indicates some form of castration or frustration, frequently in the areas of desire, a powerlessness of the psyche, or a general inhibition. On the other hand, it shows where we question ourselves, our lives, our jobs, and our beliefs. I feel this is important, since it gives us the opportunity to "let go" of something. The Dark Moon shows where we can let the Whole flow into our selves, without putting an "I" in the way, without putting up a wall in the form of ego. At the same time, it doesn't indicate passivity - on the contrary - it symbolizes the firm will to be open and trusting, to let the Greater World flow through one, relying entirely on the great laws of the universe, on that which we name God. To prepare us for this opening, the Dark Moon creates a necessary void."

Again, I'm still hazy on interpreting this WITHIN a chart, i.e. with certain planets and angles so this discussion is helpful.

Lucia- yeah interestingly I do notice that people are usually surprised when they get to know me that I'm quite amicable and friendly- which makes me think that I do come off as a raving b*tch initially haha, oh well. But yeah I seem to have to go out of my way to like, clear that up or something with people when we first meet because I noticed people seem to assume the worst of me otherwise. That might be all in my head though? Actually maybe not I'm thinking back to a couple of people who to one degree or another said they were intimidated by me or just got a not so nice vibe from me before they really knew me

and yes, I do consider myself a feminist in the way amowls and woah city are describing.

Well, Staborgi, you come off as very friendly and warm in an online context!

I think BML is the one that shows up on Astro.com's pull-down menu, right under Vertex (and has that special symbol? it's what comes up in my 1st house)...asteroid Lilith (1181) has to be typed in numerically, and reads in the chart as Lilith...or am I just getting really confused? I'm not able to find a third Lilith anywhere.

If the Lilith described in what you quoted above is the same one that's in my 1st house, that would make a lot of sense--1st house is definitely where I question myself.

http://mysticmarguerite.com/WebDocs/Texts/LilithInfo.html

another interesting read.

Also one thing I noticed about asteroid Lilith in particular is that the term castration seems to come up a lot with it. I have an interesting story here- I know a woman and I was curious to figure out what her lilith might be because she just seemed so Lilith-y. Turns out it conjuncts her sun. And after reading about Lilith I just have to share about her because its so uncanny- she had a child and then soon after divorced her husband realizing he was a jerk. She insisted that he not support them financially and went on to become very financially and professionally ambitions, often using personal connections and sex to get ahead. With her son, she was not very maternal- she was barely present in his life, relegating the task of raising him to his grandmother. She would basically just try to make sure her son had all the best opportunities and was financially secure- but she kind of forced these things on him- she limited his social life, career, and schooling to what she decided would be best for him. The son was not able to pursue anything independently, she would use her connections to make sure he passed his exams at school, got into the right schools, and later even into the best jobs. Later her son described these experiences as being castrated because he was never able to earn anything for himself, prove that he was capable/good enough, or assert himself in his own life's domain. Turns out his own sun conjuncts her Sun/Lilith conjunction. Just an interesting tid bit for you...

Lucia23~ maybe it is 3 due to there being:

mean Black Moon Lilth
true Black Moon Lilth
asteroid Lilith

I think Dark/Black Moon Lilith are the same thing.

ok yeah now i'm super confused, there's the lilith on the pull down menu of astro.com, then there's lilith that you get when you type in 1181, and these four--

h13 Osculating Lunar Apogee ("True" Lilith / Black Moon)
h21 Interpolated Lunar Apogee (Lilith), also called 'Natural Apogee'
h22 Interpolated Lunar Perigee (Priapus), also called 'Natural Perigee'

h58 Waldemath Black Moon

i THINK h21 and Lilith on the pull down menu are pretty much the same since they seem to come up in most charts within a few degrees of one another. h58, after looking around online seems to be associated with the Dark Moon. that's as far as I can put together though

There are tree points and a body.
2 Black Moon Liliths: one is mean BML (Lilith on additional objects list in astro.com) the other is true BML (h13 Osculating Lunar Apogee on the list of "hypothetical" planets )

asteroid Lilith (#1181 on the list of named asteroids)

and Dark Moon Lilith (h58 Waldemath Black Moon on the list of "hypothetical" planets)

In my opinion, BML represents the subconscious part of our mind or the Unknown, its a hightly individual point in the chart, it is something that makes us different from others. BML also represents our anima/animus figure which is very interesting for synastry charts comparison. A relationship under the influence of BML may grow into a dangerous liaison, into a painful, intense, obsessive or strange love affair.

Which of them to use true or mean? The true is the more accurate placement but an ephemeris for it has only been available for about 10 years so not as much work has been done using it.
From my personal experience, I can say mean BML does work and manifests itself in transits and synastry quite noticeably! As for true BML, I haven't studied it properly yet.

Asteroid Lilith indicates where a person does not fit the cultural stereotype, leading to some kind of exile from the community, where we struggle with social judgments. In synastry, it can provoke confrontations with gender role stereotypes or a non-submissive disposition with regard to gender roles, personal independence and the use of sex as a weapon of vengeance or domination or maybe even lack of sexual commitment.

As for Dark Moon Lilith, it's a debated dark shadow around the Earth. Some think it is a ball of space dust, which would explain why it doesn't reflect the Sun as other Moons do. According to Delphine Jay,the effect of Dark Moon Lilith is distinctly impersonal. I have never worked with DML. So I have nothing to say about it.

I have rerograde true Black Moon Lilith (osculating lunar apogee) in 5'42 Scorpio in 2nd conjunct Sun in 5'20 Scorpio in 2nd,and my Moon in 3'11 Pisces trine that.

Well....I am a male with strong female traits with My Sun aspecting not only the Moon,but also the apogee of the Moon. I don't fit the stereotypes of males whatsoever. I have high estrogen levels for a male reflected by index fingers than ring fingers which suggest being more exposed to estrogen in my mother's womb.

I am feminist for I do believe in gender equality and support women's rights. I am a member of NOW (National Organization for Women) and donate monthly to the Equality action fund. I believe in equality in general.

I do have a rebellious streak,and I am a bit of nonconformist.

Like the clairvision intepretations say for Sun conjunct Black Moon Lilith, my father was absent for I never knew my father. I fought against my stepfather who was very controlling. I haven't seen my stepfather since 1990. My stepfather had trust issues with women connected to his past of getting screwed over by 2 ex wives. My mother was his 3rd wife.

With Sun indicating the father, it could explain my father. My biological father was an extremely sensitive,emotional man. He was also a nonconformist type too. He was highly superstitious too. Of course,these same traits are me too. They relate to my ego,self expression,vitality. My mom told me that I am very much like my father even though I never knew him.

My mother has strong Lilith traits of her own,and I was pretty dominated by her. I think the true Black Moon Lilith conjunct Sun my indicates the dominating mother influence that overshadowed my masculinity quite a bit.


I am attracted to feminist type of women.

my exgirlfriend,Meghann is a feminist. Her mother is one of the feminists who strongly dislikes men because she was hurt by Meghann's father.


I wouldn't be surprised if I had more female pastlives than male pastlives. I could have strong karmic lessons,contracts with women. The t-square of Moon in Pisces in 6th square the opposition of retrograde Saturn in Gemini in 9th and Jupiter-Neptune in Sagittarius in 3rd.
With 4 transneptunians in major aspect to my Moon (Quaoar in 2'22 Scorpio trine,Ixion in 5'25 Scorpio trine,retrograde Sedna in 2'06 Taurus sextile,retrograde Varuna in 3'01 Gemini square), my intensified evolutionary lessons,experiences greatly involve women.

I have 4 asteroids named after mythological women in conjunction to my Sun within 1 degree, and so my Sun is dominated by female archetypal energies.


Aurora in 4'27 Scorpio
named after the Roman Goddess of the Dawn, daughter of Hyperion and Theia, sister of the Sun God,Sol and the Moon Goddess,Luna.

Iphigenia in 4'44 Scorpio
named after the daughter of King Agamemnon and Queen Clytemnestra, was sacrificed by Agamemnon to the gods for fairs winds to Troy

Selquet in 4'44 Scorpio
named after the Egyptian Scorpion Goddess,goddess of healing stings and bites,protector of the dead, later said to be an aspect of Isis.

Ariadne in 5'03 Scorpio
named after the Princess of Crete that aided Theseus in killing her maternal half-brother, the Minotaur,was abandoned by Thesus and married Dionysus,the God of Wine

Athor in 6'15 Scorpio
named after Egyptian Goddess of Love and Fertility


The South Eris Node in 5'30 Scorpio is conjunct my Sun. Therefore, I have strong connection to the collective in regards to female archetypal energy. ...possibly strong collective pastlife connection. The transneptunian object,Eris is named after the Greek Goddess of Discord.
I believe it adds to the theme of equality as well as divergence,diversity,dialectics,ideology. I was born exactly 5 years after the founding of National Organization for Women which was on October 29, 1966. I was born in 1971. Therefore, the organization has Sun conjunct South Eris Node in Scorpio. Eris with it being associated with equality,controversy,discord,and with it being a female archetype that wasn't known for having relationships with males nor seemed to fit the conventional female stereotypes seem like it can be related to women's rights just as much as Lilith.

Raymond


------------------
“It is absolutely the perfect name,” Dr. Brown said, given the continuing discord among astronomers and the public over whether Pluto should have retained its planetary status.

In mythology, Eris ignited discord that led to the Trojan War.

“She causes strife by causing arguments among men, by making them think their opinions are right and everyone else’s is wrong,” Dr. Brown said. “It really is just perfect.”

Interesting. My BML is in my 1st house, and I very much relate to descriptions of it.

But my asteroid Lilith is in my 7th house (as are my Moon, Saturn, Venus, and Vertex), and I don't relate to this description of the asteroid in that spot in my own life very much.
