Black Moon Lilith represents wild woman energy. It can be anything ranging from fun-freak-flag territory to full-on experience of the feminine as demonic. How you relate to this energy can vary widely along those lines, both by how it is aspected in your chart and what it kicks up by transit. For instance, women with Lilith aspecting Neptune may have dark or wild energy that operates in a stealthy or hidden manner, under the radar of others, or it may be that they are not conscious of their inner wild woman. They may also be mistaken for exhibiting this energy when they do not. By transit you get the same effect but only for the length of the transit.

Black Moon Lilith In The Cardinal Grand Cross
“I hope the junkyard a few blocks from here, someday burns down. And I hope the rising black smoke carries me far away and I never come back to this town.”
–No Children, The Mountain Goats
Black Moon Lilith, the dark, primal woman, is at 12 Aries opposing Saturn and further complicating the cardinal Grand Cross. With the zombie-inducing component of Venus opposing Pluto we can also add in the possibility of dark women (BML) from the past (Saturn). What a great plot for a horror movie.

Black Moon Lilith And Self-Preservation
“We must learn and then teach our children that niceness does not equal goodness. Niceness is a decision, a strategy of social interaction; it is not a character trait. People seeking to control others almost always present the image of a nice person in the beginning.”
–Gavin De Becker
Gavin De Becker is a security specialist and well-known author of several books on protecting yourself and those you are close to. Having read two of his books what stands out to me is his advice to listen to your intuition and act on it. Primarily I remember his admonition “when people tell you who they are, believe them.”

Pluto, Black Moon Lilith, And Being A Nasty-Ass Bitch
“And if you EVER try something like that again. I will KILL YOU!”
–Patsy Stone, Absolutely Fabulous
This weekend was interesting. Pluto trined Mars, Mercury and Venus and squared Black Moon Lilith. Interestingly, Lilith was also on my 8th house natal Lilith to the degree. It’s been quite the time, let me tell you. I lie in bed at night and try to think of something besides slapping people. I think of the self defense video guy, “elbow to the head, elbow to the head, knee to the groin, knee to the groin.”

Introduction To Lilith by Satori
“Faith is an excitement and an enthusiasm: it is a condition of intellectual magnificence to which we must cling as to a treasure, and not squander on our way through life in the small coin of empty words, or in exact and priggish argument.”
–George Sand, pen name of the 19th century writer who dressed as a man (Black Moon Lilith in Sagittarius conjunct the MC)
Researching Lilith is a pain in the butt. There’s asteroid Lilith (#1181), the supposed phantom Moon, Dark Moon Lilith (that has never actually been discovered), and Black Moon Lilith, a theoretical point based on the orbit of the moon. Each position has its followers but as far as I can tell when most astrologers are talking about Lilith they are referencing Black Moon Lilith, the apogee (furthest point) of the moon’s orbit around the earth at a given time.

Leo Woman Disturbed And Wonders What Scorpio Man Is Up To: Astrology-Based Advice
Dear Elsa,
I am dating a Scorpio man who is ten years my senior (he is 53). We have had a good relationship for the past 5 months – it has been loving, intense sexually, and there have been moments I feel as if I am falling in love with him. My friends have all noticed how happy I have been, until recently.
We often joke around with each other, but in the past week his jokes have taken another tone, and have gone from harmless to harmful. We’ve been talking and he claims that they were just jokes and he would never intentionally try to hurt or belittle me.
It’s disturbing to me because it appears as if he doesn’t remember or want to take responsibility for what he says. He seems genuinely stunned when I call him on his less-than-lighthearted jokes and even questioned me as to why I’d want to be with someone who would intentionally hurt me.
I think he is a genuine person, but I’m extremely confused about his recent behavior.
Leo in New York

Dear Leo,
It is impossible for me to know for sure what is going on here. Your man may be pulling away from you or playing some Scorpio “torture” games but it does not necessarily seem this is the case to me.
His question, “Why would you want to be with someone who would intentionally hurt you?” is a good one and it may very well be genuine. I know I would ask the same thing if I meant no harm and someone I was dating claimed I was hurting them but continuing to date me. He is essentially challenging you to look at your own behavior, which is actually a good idea.
A good idea but potentially disturbing and so you feel disturbed and I don’t blame you but look here:
Leo Sun aside, you have Mercury conjunct Pluto in the twelfth house and it is a safe bet that you go deeper than you think you do. You have the Black Moon Liltith conjunct your Moon as well (think dark feminine) and I think this guy may be tapping into parts of you that you are divorced or disconnected from, which is a Scorpio forte.
His bafflement over this situation might also be real because I don’t care what they say, a lot of what Scorpio does is unconscious so I hope you get the gist of this.
You can certainly run and if you don’t meet another Scorpio, then all good. But if you do continue to attract this challenging energy then it might be a clue you explore your darker thoughts and feelings and for the record, astrology suggests this is the direction in which you are headed.
Good luck.

Astrology Today – Scorpio Moon Conjunct Mercury Retrograde and the Black Moon Lilith
My eye on the sky
Same scenario as yesterday, people are caught in relationships while experiencing a urge for space and freedom but the Moon has moved into Scorpio to conjunct Mercury and the Black Moon Lilith and personally, I feel relieved.
I feel relieved because the depth was already there but with the Sun and Moon in Libra over the last days… well my sister put it best:
“Libra doesn’t like pits in their cherries, never mind pits in their stomachs.”
So the root of things is avoided in favor of veneer… also known as “putting lipstick on a pig” and I am always happier when pigs are identified, unmasked and out in the open.
