The Right Way to Lilith
I’ve been working lately on the Black Moon Lilith (BML), working to describe how to integrate the energy into your day-to-day life, and getting over the automatic, conditioned fear that she’s to be feared and avoided.
By house, sign and aspect, each of us can find the right way to Lilith - as a noun (finding her energy), and as a verb (bringing her energy consciously into our lives).
As an example, my true BML is at 3 Sagittarius in the 2nd, with Neptune & Mercury in the 2nd and Moon in the 3rd house (4, 9, and 11 Sagittarius, respectively). It sextiles Pluto-Venus in Libra/12th.
For me, opening up the satellite dish that this Sagittarius stellium can seem, and flowing with words that want to come out, is one way. Allowing myself not to edit too much too early, just to let it flow. Lilith brings a primal, irrational, instinctive and uncontrollable energy, and when I open the channel and write what comes through, I’m more productive than working in any other way.
Incorporating Lilith into our lives, bringing her out of the closet, or out from under the rug, leads to a feeling of greater wholeness. When I allow myself to write in this way, I’m not only productive but also I feel like an important part of me had the chance to participate. It feels like a gift I give myself.
As I wrote above, anyone can figure out how to let his or her Lilith flow. The trick is in releasing the conditioning and pain we’ve accumulated along the way, when we’ve internalized the judgments of others that this natural part of us is not okay. It’s natural for others to try to get us to normalize, as they’re looking out for our best interests. Yet each of us at some point has opportunities to identify, reclaim and bring out who we really are.

Hello;
I have lilith at 29º Sag, conj. moon at 26º Sag (in the 2nd), square pluto, opposing Saturn (0º Cancer).
You said: “Allowing myself not to edit too much too early, just to let it flow.” and “I open the channel and write what comes through, I’m more productive than working in any other way”
Somehow I also do this, I think but I haven’t write (fiction) in a very long time. I’m stuck. I do write astrology reports and it seems to me that words just flow, ideas just pop in my head when I do this. I can’t see a chart and just Talk about it - that way I only got 15% of what I want to say; writing them down is the only way to say everything.
(Also Jupiyer - sag ruler - is on my 3rd house.)
I usually don’t think about my lilith. I have no idea what pluto will be doing to her when it conjuncts her again.
