Horoscopes are relational maps. They enable awareness of our unfolding relationships to outer space from our varying times and positions on Earth. They give us vocabularies and timespace for developing our relationships with intentionality, accountability and reciprocity within the vast and complex community of our solar system. In doing so, horoscopes tell us about the stellar energies present and available to work with at any given point in spacetime. They remind us that we are in material-spiritual community with not just our human and unhuman kin on Earth but also in a larger community with our galactic relatives that demands responseability.
Relationships need stories to be challenged, grow, and survive. So horoscopes are often read as layered and polyvocal stories. The horoscopes this month are told as your Lilith story. In other words, they are organised by your Lilith sign.
Lilith is the lunar apogee or the point in its orbit where the Moon is furthest from the Earth, thus signaling a unique Earth-Moon relation. There are different versions of Lilith, but one of the most common ones used in Hellenic astrology is Black Moon Lilith, represented by ⚸. To find your Black Moon Lilith sign, you need to look at your birth chart or your natal chart that includes a Black Moon Lilith calculation. Generating your birth/natal chart online will require you to input your date of birth, place of birth and time of birth. Since these are sensitive data, I highly recommend that you use only trusted web sources or other online cloaking technologies to protect your privacy.
A typical Hellenic natal chart may look like this:
The 12 zodiac constellations (Aries, Taurus, Gemini…etc.) typically go around in a circle and are represented by Graeco-Egyptian symbols in a Hellenic natal chart. These symbols look like this:
Aries: ♈︎ , Taurus: ♉︎ , Gemini: ♊︎ , Cancer: ♋︎ , Leo: ♌︎ , Virgo: ♍︎ , Libra: ♎︎ , Scorpio: ♏︎ , Sagittarius: ♐︎ , Capricorn: ♑︎ , Aquarius: ♒︎ , Pisces: ♓︎
Having got hold of your natal chart, you now need to note the zodiac constellation in which the ⚸ symbol appears. That constellation shall represent one version of your Lilith signs.
Lilith in Cancer
Logic is not the opposite of emotion, but in seamless flow with it. How do you value your logic? How do you value your emotions? What do you find unaffordable? Whose burdens are carrying? Why? And how long will you? It is time to decide and surrender what’s not yours.
Lilith in Leo
What did you value as a child? What is its place in your life now? Does it support the structure of your plans or is it a mere decorative corner in the shadows? Be the mother to your inner child your human mother could not. Lilith allows you to receive joy without guilt or shame.
Lilith in Virgo
Dedication, teamwork, collaborations…How do you value yourself within them? What do you find you can afford to do in your community, and what can you not? Are you dimming your light because you are afraid of triggering others? What did your mother teach you? What can your plants teach you about this?
Lilith in Libra
Slow careful study towards a new skill is great, but is it morphing into an obsession? Earth relationships cannot be a trade-off — valuing one does not take value away from another because they exist in a continuous interdependent ecosystem. What does this tell you about your relationship to your work and the people you love?
Lilith in Scorpio
Closeness to the land and growing a plant can teach you a lot about the questions you have, the answers you seek. Your sense of value is undergoing a massive shift as you reckon with our planetary story in your everyday life. Celebrate with friends and lovers, lie on the earthy ground.
Lilith in Sagittarius
Old values are being released, values that were not yours but given to you. What you find valuable and worthy is under shift. Pay attention to it, become deliberate about your choices. You have the power, you can magick your own reality in respectful relations with the four elements.
Lilith in Capricorn
Alchemising value has always been your superpower, whether you’ve accepted it or not. Like turning iron to gold, you transform your disappointments to lessons well learnt to abundance. But what if this life was not about alchemy? What if there were no hierarchy of desires? What/who would you value then?
Lilith in Aquarius
How do you value rest? Do you see it as a necessary component for your productivity, or are you able to accept it as valuable on its own terms, in its own right? Does it make a difference to your experience of restful moments? How does it affect your ability to receive? What would you change moving forward? Who/what systems would you need to hoodwink to nourish your receptivity? How, in practice, will you trick oppressive systems? Trickster is a valuable strategy.
Lilith in Pisces
Death sweeps you up to show its value. How do you expect to transform without letting parts of you and of this world be consumed by death back into Mother Earth? Death, the Great Equaliser, is not the void of nothingness but transmutation into somethingness. Grief is important, but it is also important to afford reason in order to accept endings. The why’s you ask are important to know your own sense of value.
Lilith in Aries
You find your value in compassion and curiosity. If not, this will change in a sudden fountain of epiphanies. Cats and birds guide your path, listen to them. The journeys of life are not linear, chasing tangible outcomes may not get you where you want, but receiving compassion as the Earth’s love and curiosity as messages from your spirit guides shall change many things to a lighter and abundant energy. Do you think your compassion and curiosity are what you give to the world? Now think of them as experiences that are given to you by your Lilith relations.
Lilith in Taurus
You are the mother of all abundance, don’t let others steal your joy. Are you paying attention to the messages you receive when you enter the forest? Ask trees for permission to approach, and listen to what they say. If human relationships have proved a dissatisfaction, Earth Mother awaits eagerly to take you into her fold. Communicate with the unhuman. Dreams.
Lilith in Gemini
Money is valuable, so are possessions, but they also tie you down. What things of value are you holding onto that would be better released? What makes these things valuable, and where is your own locus of value? If you’d rather travel lighter, that is very valuable too. Don’t let others’ sense of worth fool you.
