Yes, I read his answer."The Archetype of Lilith [Asteroid Lilith, have not studied BML] is very negative."
I disagree with those who contribute to Lilith all the ugly and bad and evil things in this world. It is a very simplistic view on this archetypical figure, even though, yes, she has her dark spots and flaws, definitely.
She was Adam`s first wife, she was his EQUAL, which set her apart from Eve, who was created from one of his ribs, and was a "subordinate".
Lilith wanted this equality to be expressed in all regards, including the sexual (she didn`t want to lie beneath him).
She was denied this equality, and that is when she decided to leave Adam, because she couldn`t compromise her views on this (equality).
God kinda "stalked" her to force her to return to Adam, to compromise, to lie beneath him, but she wouldn`t. That is when God threatened to take care that she would never have children. Still she wouldn´t compromise. So her children died. That is when all that anger that had built up started to explode from her.
And that is when her own negativity started, too. It is true, in the myth she turned to Lucifer (who was just as disappointed with God), and she was full of resentments against men. Those who tried to kep their wifes "under their thumb" especially.
She became an image of the "evil woman", a "femme fatale" figure, which triggered fear and resentiments in men, as well as some kind of "dark fascination".
I think it has to do with her insisting of being treated as an equal.
To me she symbolises the inability to compromise her own truth, even if it means she will be a social outcast.
Having said that, if her rage is triggered for some reason, she can be very cruel and uncontrollable in her fury.

SWINDLE-LIE-Neptune conjunction will make anyone have a propensity to lie, and conjunction to Mercury is a multiplier.
Maybe. But I also thought, that someone with this constellations could be very sensitive to lies, liars, deception and "smell" it a mile away. Especially with mercury, here. She could lie with her words, or she could easily detect lying words. As Mercury can be indicative of speaking as well as understanding.
With Neptune here and all int he 1st house, maybe there could also be the risk of somehow lie to oneself?
"I would have thought exaggeration would be the problem than lying. "
Yes, that would make sense.
" Maybe this conjunction is too deadly and becomes a red flag for any sign/house."
This certainly is not an easy combination, but I don´t think it is "too deadly". At least it doesn`t have to be. It depends on how she is handling this challenging configuration.
I think though, deluding oneself, seeing things in a more positive light (especially themselves) is a real possibility.
