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, learn, and survive. So horoscopes are often read as layered and many-voiced 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
Let’s not romanticise the practicality of this land of which you are. There is adventure, passion, and total new possibilities but there are also dangers on this journey from which you need to protect what you value. Let’s not demonise fear as an emotion: It alerts you to your need for protection. But also, have you been worshipping at the altar of Fear? Be(a)ware!
Lilith in Leo
How do you respond to receiving love? Is there discomfort there? Is there mistrust? Where does this mistrust stem from? What told you love was not safe? What painted the picture of love as a big manipulation game? You have thought and overthought all this enough. Take up permaculture gardening if you can, or grow a plant—in this way the relation of love outside of manipulation and mistrust shall be revealed.
Lilith in Virgo
Slow movement. Sustainable changes happen in Earth time not stock market/factory/labour time. What are you curious about and what can you do now to feed that curiosity? What do you need to do to build your relations of knowing? If you want to lead or build something anew, come down to Earth.
Lilith in Libra
If you have figured things on your own, now it is time to deal in community. Are you doing well at living, doing, or working by yourself? Enjoying your solitude and peace? Good! Because now is the time to take up a challenge and figure out how to live, do, work with others. It is not a time to hoard but to share your gifts, and to learn from others. Trust your gut, instead of losing yourself in your head, and you will be protected.
Lilith in Scorpio
Can you spend time in the sun? If yes, please do. Also, meditate with the Dragons. And the Moon. The Sun-Moon relationship is non-binary. If certain emotions have been hard to let go, take a soothing bath or walk along a flowing river, setting intention and asking these waters to allow stuck emotions to flow through you. What you really value shall become clear through the easy passage of these emotions. Be patient with your desires, so they feel safe to erupt.
Lilith in Sagittarius
Been working too hard? Been listening too hard to others’ woes? Or been procrastinating hard unable to stop that mental berating of yourself? Give yourself a break! It’s time to mix up your routine, and find some inspiration away from the drudgery or fear that you are not doing the drudgery well enough. Well guess what? You are not meant to! Your possibilities are way vaster! Build some real childlike playtime in your routine, and watch your priorities (aka what you value) become clear. Aren’t you worth this? We think so!
Lilith in Capricorn
Percussion drums. Rhythm is what will allow you to walk away from the heaviness of the past. Rhyme and rhythm. Light and schism. Don’t worry, it is all part of the rhythm. You might wanna play with percussion or you might wanna take a brisk walk and sing tunes to the rhythm of your steps. Deep down, you already know what matters to you. It’s just a matter of making it appear shallow up😉 Rhythm will help (Psst! Remember routines are rituals are rhythm!)
Lilith in Aquarius
What if what you value seems to be at odds with each other? Plan One: Journal and let parts of you debate with each other until you see that all binaries are infact non-binaries. Why does feeling love as an emotion spark insecurity? There is something about uncertainty here and a fear of uncertainty. Have you confused security with certainty? Plan two: Release some of your wealth to those in need and note all the emotions this brings into your body. When, where, why?
Lilith in Pisces
Cages of your own making? They are actually kinda cool because it means you can also unmake them when you like. If that project or relationship seems stuck, and you’ve been working hard at it, stop. And if you haven’t been working, then work. Something here about stuck emotions, about things moving forward when you learn from the Moon. The ebbs and flows. And how projects, relationships, people, manifestations all have their ebbs and flows, can you dance with them? Because when you can, you will have stumbled upon a new relationship with yourself of love.
Lilith in Aries
What scares you about taking action to move towards the things and relations that you really value? Not things-relations that you have been told you should value? But the ones you really do, that deep down you are even scared to admit to yourself? Is it about being perceived as “crazy”? Is it about letting someone down? Is it about the fear of death? It’s NOW TIME to figure all this out. Because darling WOW YOU ARE EXPLODING WITH CREATIVE ENERGY YOU CREATIVE GENIUS if only you gave yourself a chance. Let it be about your values not theirs. Why let yourself down?
Lilith in Taurus
Alone again and withering? Definitely play/listen to more music than you do, it will allow you to access your emotions in balance and curtail thinking/logic which is disconnected from your body and brings you into unhelpful loops of feeling abandoned and inadequacy. Because it’s all okay really—everything you feel. How else are you supposed to feel in a fucked-up world? But theres always strategies to resist this fuck-upedness and co-create openings for something wonderfully different. Taking care of an animal (either at home or as a volunteer) will also help you figure those openings in everyday ways.
Lilith in Gemini
In a time of great turmoil, having a tether to what matters to you/what you value is what provides you stability-security. This is not about being rigid in the face of a storm or an earthquake, those are the trees and buildings that always fall. Too often it is just rigidity disguised as “standing by your values,” when actually all that is, is stubborn arrogance. Living by your values is not about fear metamorphising into rigidity but borne of a loving relationship with yourself that centres and honours you as a small but not insignificant part of this land. Which understanding of value (and your possibility) have you been cultivating?
