Priapus, god of virility and fertility, was the Greek and Roman
protector of gardens, vineyards, and orchards. Depicted with enormous
genitals, he ensured fertility and good fortune. His statue served as
both scarecrow and guardian divinity. He was, moreover, the patron of
all in need of luck, especially men and women in search of sexual
satisfaction. Although he is generally depicted as heterosexual in his
tastes, Priapus numbered among his devotees men who were attracted to other men (go figure).

His parents are Dionysus, God of Sex, Wine and Intoxication, and
Aphrodite, Goddess of Love, and brother to Hymenaeus, God of Weddings and Getting Married. When you think of the relationship between all of them, you can see a common thread. OVER THE TOP kind of deal…

Now I don’t know too much about it, so I’m trying to see how this god
and Lilith matches up. Lilith is kicked out of the garden; Priapus is
denied love because his penis is too big…guess penis envy, size,
wasn’t too important…

Priapus now is a point, where you feel rather powerless. But at this
point you have a strong capability and longing to merge with others,
to feel for them, to develop empathy and basically it`s the point
where you can adapt to others to the point of losing yourself.

Priapus is also the god of health and fertility (son of Venus and
Bacchus / Dionysos). And it seems, according to mythology, he was
having a constant erection. Well, what could you expect of a God, who
is son of the goddess of erotic love and the god of extasy? lol
But I think it just symbolizes that he is very much in touch with the
earth, with all instincts, with a strong desire to merge and become
ONE with earth / life.

Maybe the difference between Lilith and Priapus is like this:
Both are driven by very strong desires.
But Lilith demands to be equal, independent, to voluntarily turn to
someone, or else she will repell or be repelled. She can`t make any
compromises. In the best sense she`s painfully truthful, and she makes
great sacrifices (like being rejected from society) to maintain her
independence.

Priapos on the other hand has such a great need to merge, that he will
sacrifice the truth for it. He will make any compromises that are
necessary to be close to someone. But since PRiapos is also a male
God, he seems to be also prone to become sexually violent or absusive,
to force closeness to his “object of affection”.

At least the myth tell about him attempting to rape at least two
goddesses / nymphs. But every time the rape has been interrupted,
before it could be done, and Priapus has been kicked out.
He is a nasty little god, isn`t he? At least in the myth.
But on the positive side he has a very direct access to his fertility and lust.

I`m not really sure what to make of it astrologically. But maybe
Priapus depicts a point in the horoscope where there is an
overwhelming urge to merge, which may become so overwhelming and
desperate that you may humilate yourself, by committing really low
acts (be they destructive towards others as in an attempted rape. or
be they selfdestructive, by “offering” yourself, even if you know that
you will never get back enough, so that you will be satisfied; the
willingness to live a lie just to feel the illusion of merging.)

But I think there must also be a positive way to see Priapus and
Lilith. Maybe Priapus can offer that empathy like it has been said in
that article I mentioned." http://www.leahwhitehorse.com/2012/01/29/black-moon-lilith-mean-***** -or-true-witch/
