This Is What Your Black Moon Lilith Placement In Your Birth Chart Means

Let’s talk about the Black Moon Lilith.

Black Moon Lilith is not a planet or a person, but rather, a placement furthest from the moon. Have you heard Pink Floyd’s “Dark Side of the Moon”? Yeah, that’s in reference to the Black Moon Lilith.

The Black Moon Lilith represents the part of ourselves that is hidden away out of fear of being criticized or misunderstood. It’s our deepest desires, strengths, and passions. When you find your Lilith placement (use Cafe Astrology!) and maybe even do a bit of shadow work, you can harness your personal power and step into the best version of yourself.

Once you’ve found your Lilith placement, you can learn how to reclaim your energy and tap into your power:

Lilith in Aries

Success and competition.

You might feel the urge to win and be the best at everything in your life, but still, you fear taking the lead and asserting yourself. Remember: it’s okay to put yourself first sometimes. It’s okay to go after the things you want most in life — you deserve it.

Lilith in Taurus

Worth and value.

You love to indulge in pleasure and beautiful things, like an expensive pair of shoes or a spa weekend, but you sometimes feel guilty for doing so. You’ve denied yourself luxuries and pleasure but you shouldn’t! That is what makes your life feel the most fulfilled.

Lilith in Gemini

Communication and influence.

You are a social butterfly who loves talking to new people and jumping from conversation to conversation. You might have experienced shame around your voice, either in being too loud or too quiet. Don’t censor yourself. Don’t talk just to merely fill the silence. Remember your intelligence and that your voice matters.

Lilith in Cancer

Nurture and sensitivities.

You’re quite sensitive and empathetic in nature, and you find purpose in nurturing others. You don’t like to admit it, though, how you can be a bit dependent and needy too. You don’t like to ask for help and you might feel shame about asking for your needs to be met — even if they are the bare minimum. Remember: it’s okay to be vulnerable.

Lilith in Leo

Spotlight and courage.

You might have felt like your desire to receive appreciation and attention was too much for people, so you learned how to hide behind the curtain. Suppressing this part of you might have led to attention-seeking behaviors and a fear of rejection. Don’t feel silly for wanting to be in the spotlight. It’s okay to want to feel fabulous.

Lilith in Virgo

Structure and healing.

You like organization and structure. You’re a perfectionist! But you might feel ashamed for paying close attention to detail and wanting to be organized. You want to prove to others that you’re chill, but you can’t keep lying to yourself. Honor who you are, even if that means being “high-maintenance” but remember, you don’t need to be perfect, so stop striving for it.

Lilith in Libra

Commitment and balance.

You feel your best when your environment is balanced and at peace. However, you might be more inclined to people-please as a means of wanting to keep the peace. But let’s be honest, this makes things far from balanced. Disagreements and a need for compromise are natural in relationships. It doesn’t make you weak.

Lilith in Scorpio

Sexuality and depth.

You can be quite sensual and passionate. However, to you, true intimacy is about connecting on a deeper level. It’s about having a safe space to own your sexual power. You don’t need to feel ashamed for enjoying intimacy and pleasure and being passionate. You don’t need to shame others for also being passionate and pleasure-seeking, either.

Lilith in Sagittarius

Expansion and wisdom.

You are an independent, freedom-loving person. You want to channel your inner wild child and jet off on a new adventure to learn and try new things. Don’t let anyone make you feel guilty about this urge. Don’t let them dull your spark of curiosity. Trust your inner wisdom.

Lilith in Capricorn

Ambition and motivation.

You are incredibly ambitious and motivated to excel in all areas of your life. You might feel shame about being a workaholic or you base your success and self-worth on the recognition of others. Follow your dreams. Be ambitious. But remember to enjoy life outside of work! You will attract all that you desire when you find a good work-life balance.

Lilith in Aquarius

Rebellion and progress.

You tend to be a bit of a humanitarian, wanting to leave a meaningful mark on the world. But sometimes you just want to cower away, not wanting to be a part of a community. You want to be rebellious and independent, but a connection to others is a basic human need. Resisting that urge and isolating yourself is not what you want out of life. Connect with others instead.

Lilith in Pisces

Intuition and creativity.

You can be quite sensitive to others’ feelings — you’re intuitive in that way. You tend to look at life through rose-colored glasses and you might even have a deeper, spiritual ability. People might have shamed you for this, but don’t let them. It’s okay to indulge in this dreamy world from time to time. Connect with your intuition and don’t rob yourself of the soft pleasures of life.
