That's the myth. The archetype is something different. You know how the myth of Pluto is the god of the underworld snatching up the innocent and taking them to hell? The archetype of Pluto is the criminal, the puppetmaster, the phoenix, etc., among other things.
But your point is well-taken. I think Lilith is an archetype, but acknowledgement that her archetype exists in real life makes a lot of people shiver.
When I have planets activating my BML by transit, I've noticed it triggers suppressed rage. In my case, BML is in Cancer, and much of that rage is tied in with some members of my family and childhood trauma.
That's why I relate Black Moon Lilith more to an energy of feminine rage, than sexuality, or equally so.
I agree with @Magic Zara I think it can potentially be harmful to identify too much with it because of that. Some of those 'episodes' have definitely been very difficult on me. But nevertheless, it remains a fascinating topic to me.
I have her two degrees apart from my asc in the 1. I think she is projected on to me. You'd think a cancer asc would have this sweet loving maternal image not in my case. I exude TROUBLE for no apparent reason. Sexually speaking, for some reason I have a dark raw sexual appeal definitely not pretty or cuddly just plain dark. Definitely not the girl that makes a good first impression. It's all an image though but one that definitely is very present in peoples impression of me. I kind of remind myself a bit of Angelina Jolie ( no not in the way I look, nowhere near that of course), in the way that she exudes dangerous excitement but the kind that nobody really has the energy to want to deal with 24/7. Dangerous exciting but bat shit crazy, that sums me up.
I'm never sure whether to use True or Mean Lilith, but True is in Virgo, conjunct Mercury, and Mean is in Leo, square Neptune.
Mean is the entire day's composite position of Lilith; True is her position based on exact birth time.
Both are in the 5th.
@ notintofeet- that's funny lol. My moon is 27:37 sag and Lilith 27:57. I'm no emotional wuss!
1st house Lilith - when I was younger I would be approached a lot by strange men who wanted sex from me and it would hurt me a lot. guess because it is.conjunct that sag moon I thought I looked plain and unassuming but with it picking up all that fire energy men could smell it on me. Moon BML also conjuncted NN and venus 7-10 orbs. Like I said always held myself in check waiting for a chance to use all that energy. Whenever I tried I think I scared the men I was with or they could only see that aspect of me. Maybe not as subtle as I thought
