Black Moon Lilith's influence on zodiac signs

You probably all know your zodiac sign, your birth chart, your ascendant and the influence that planetary transits, like the dreaded Saturn, have, but have you ever heard the term Black Moon Lilith? If you hang around TikTok's #witchtok content, you may have read about it, but for all you "laymen", know its position in your natal chart can reveal information about our dark side. It is a wild energy that has to do with primitive impulses. It represents the self that we fear will be demonised or not accepted by others. It can have to do with repressed sexuality, but also with the subconscious desires of our psyche.

In the astrological chart, it does not represent the asteroid or satellite of the same name, but the lunar apogee or the dark side of the moon. The Moon moves in an elliptical shape around the Earth, and apogee (Black Moon Lilith) is the point at which the Moon is farthest from the Earth during this orbit. Black Moon Lilith therefore corresponds to the point at which the Moon is isolated from everything else. It coincides with a dark void that remains in each sign for about nine months (you can calculate it here) and embodies the essence of the goddess Lilith. There are several myths about the origins of Lilith. All describe a dark goddess who symbolises lust and carnal desire. Some speak of a long-haired, seductive demoness who feeds on the sexual arousal of men. Others portray her as the first vampire to roam the earth, thirsting for pregnant women and the blood of newborns. In Hebrew mythology, on the other hand, Lilith was Adam's first wife, created like him from the soil of the earth and therefore equal. When she refused to submit to Adam, whether in their relationship or in sex, she fled the Garden of Eden to exercise her right to her free will and sexual independence.

Over the years, her story has made the figure of Lilith both a symbol of destructive femininity and a symbol of empowerment, a feminist icon who proudly stood against patriarchy. Therefore, the Black Moon Lilith is believed to represent the dark feminine energy, the assertion of one's desires and needs. Whatever they may be. It is released when we exercise our free will, when we are unwilling to compromise, when we rebel and transform inner pain and anger into power, into freedom. Knowing the position of the Black Moon Lilith in the natal chart can reveal information about our innermost self, including how we rebel and our hidden sexual fantasies. Would you like to know who you are in the dark?

Lilith in Aries

Someone who has Lilith in Aries is completely ruled by impulses. He is competitive and independent. He is a fearless leader who wants to win at all costs. Even in sex, they are driven by boldness and desire. Ambition is fine, but sometimes he should distinguish when it is better to pursue his extreme passions and when it is better to learn to control them.

Lilith in Taurus

Sensual, irresistible, people with Lilith in Taurus feel a decadent love for beauty and the pleasures of life, like food and sex. They are almost impossible to resist, for their allure is intoxicating. After all, they are ruled by Venus, the goddess of love, beauty and abundance. Be careful, however, that you do not go from passion to possessiveness.

Lilith in Gemini

Never satisfied. Curious, lively, extreme. You run the risk of often coming across as childish and superficial, even mean. Those with Lilith in Gemini have a karmic duty to communicate better, stay away from gossip and use their exceptionally brilliant minds to dose impulsiveness and inconsistency.

Lilith in Cancer

People with Black Moon Lilith in Cancer tend to be overly submissive, caring for others to the point of self-sacrifice and fiercely defending loved ones or suffering from separation anxiety when they try to leave. They should remember to cultivate love and time for themselves as well. And never use their care for others as a manipulative weapon.

Lilith in Leo

Narcissism and pride are her worst enemies. Inner strength and charisma, on the other hand, are the weapons she uses to charm others. For someone with Black Lilith in Leo, everything is pure performance, including sex, but sometimes she should leave the initiative to her partner and stop wanting the limelight all to herself.

Lilith in Virgo

Obsessive, hygiene-obsessed, sometimes suffers from sexual repression and is ashamed of her desires. Between the sheets she would do anything to satisfy her partner, but she should learn to let go of her sensuality and her natural talent for penetrating her lover's mind.

Lilith in Libra

At her best, Lilith in Libra represents a natural leader and a charming diplomat, but also a great seductress endowed with elegance and grace. What should she do? Free yourself from the pressure of others' judgement and learn to accept people as they are without idealising them.

Lilith in Scorpio

Scorpio is the sign of sex. This means that he hunts lovers like prey and is endowed with great charm and intensity. Sometimes, however, he can become obsessive and jealous of his lovers.

Lilith in Sagittarius

Those who have the black moon Lilith in Sagittarius love to travel, to go where no one has gone before. But at the same time, they tend to hide, to be ashamed of their charisma or qualities, to the point of hiding them from others. The lesson you should learn? Be proud to show who you are.

Lilith in Capricorn

In Capricorn, Lilith is completely inconsiderate. It seems that she can become ruthless and ice cold if her hopes and desires are not fulfilled. Therefore, it is best to avoid mixing business and pleasure and use the extraordinary resilience of this sign to make the most of both aspects of life, but separately.

Lilith in Aquarius

Rebellious. Also in sexual matters. People with Black Lilith in Aquarius are obsessed with their freedom but lack empathy. They should remember that sometimes you have to open up to others, listen to them and appreciate them in order to be truly revolutionary, without necessarily looking for the most original or interesting thing.

Lilith in Pisces

Those who have Lilith in Pisces prefer fantasy to reality and even repress their feelings. When will they understand that the key to happiness lies in self-acceptance?
