Asteroid Lilith, #1181, represents repressed anger and conflict resolution. Astrologically, Lilith 1181, addresses issues of personal, sexual power and repressed anger. In interpersonal relationships, she shows where we withdrawal to arguing and how we sexually manipulate others. Positively she shows the propensity for skillful negotiation and compromise. She can show where we may hold anger from being rejected. This Lilith, again, represents an extreme amount of re-pressed anger. This rage, when active, can result in sexual domination and even violence in some cases. In the horoscope, a prominent Lilith can represent our quality of independence and the refusal to submit to another. A prominent Lilith may not allow people to compromise their beliefs because Lilith is so independent. Stressful placements of Lilith point to the perception of women or femininity as evil (the seductress). It can also show the possibility of rape and sexual abuse if aspected to Toro or Saturn according to Demetra George, or the inability to reach agreement until issues of personal power are resolved. Lilith’s aspects to other planets show the contacted planet deals with conflict resolution. In synastry, Lilith contact can show the need for the individuals to learn negotiation and the possibility of our problems surrounding sexual fears, feelings of anger stemming from rejection and suspicions.
According to legend, in Hebraic tradition, Lilith is the first wife of Adam and represents the first stage of the feminine as a consort. She found herself in conflict with Adam, who wished to have rulership over her but she believed that they were equals due to them coming from the same earth. So, Lilith chose exile and loneliness rather than domination. To punish her for rejecting her husband, Lilith became regarded as the personification of feminine evil. She was seen as a dark demon who was viewed as a threat to pregnant women, according to legend, she killed children, and seduced men to destroy them. Her was the worst fear of men and made them fearful regarding their sexuality and potency. Lilith appears as a female demon or group of demons in Babylonian mythology. Seen as one who supposedly seduced men in their sleep (succubus), it was said harmed women in childbirth as well, and stole babies right out of their cradles. According to Jewish folklore Lilith was the “first Eve” and left Adam, resulting in her being the mother of hundreds of demons.
The Waldemath, Dark Moon Lilith, # h58, may or may not be a real body. According to Ivy Goldstein, in her book, “The Dark Moon Lilith in Astrology,” Lilith’s intent is to injure humans. In the beginning of her book she describes her as sinister and malevolent. She states that Lilith denies any good from the house it is placed in. She states that it will effect the native physically if placed in the first house, If in the second then financially, there may be issues with siblings or neighbors in the third, in the fourth house father or family issues, and in the 7th denial of marriage and so on. She states that the more angular the placement, the more people are fascinated with the native and the native maybe seen as overly friendly, flirtatious, and if afflicted she can show jealousy and marital problems. Ivy went on to say that her position should also be noted in horary charts. I wondered why.
The Dark Moon is said to be like the bad side of Neptune and liked to be like the unfortunate attributes of the 12th house (Self undoing, crimes, isolation, and mistakes). This Lilith stands for temptation, seduction, betrayal, infatuation, and a loss of morality. It can show where things are abnormal in a chart, or in what area of the chart there may be illicit activity. It is said that she can bring about situations such as poisoning, death in child birth, still birth, abortion, and abnormal physical or emotional development.
