Lilith

Celestial Body: None (Lunar apogee point)

Lilith is not a physical celestial body, but represents an astronomical point known as the lunar apogee, the point in The Moon’s orbit when it is furthest away from Earth.

Rules: None

Lilith does not rule an astrological sign, but often referred to as the Dark Moon or the Black Moon, she is the embodiment of our shadow power, taboo desires and places suppressed or hidden truth.

Mythology

Lilith is known as Adam’s first wife before Eve, who refused submission and chose exile rather than servitude. She embodies radical autonomy and personal power along with sentiments of rejection and the demonized feminine.

Application

Astrologically, your Lilith placement reveals where you carry both shame and power. It speaks to your wildness, your rebellion against control and your wound of being silenced, both in this life and past. This placement can be further analyzed and integrated through your Lilith gate placement in Human Design.
