Lilith is just this archetype that usually is much mroe personal to us i say this because like, its a small little spot comparatively to the other planets and because we don't know much about Lilith... we have our stories but astrology looks at archetypes and the stories of lilith do not really explain her archetype because they are connected to other stories with archetypes that don't relate to the mythos/logos in astrology... I dunnoto me it just seems the major planets and their influence count for much more of what happens to us because of thingsoutside of us, and simply because of their presence in the universe. im not discounting lilith's influence, but archetypically, she usually speaks to some sort of like empowerment through protection or self-preservation...
This is exactly the difference to my way of thinking. The Moon through its feelings is
REactive of nature towards everything going on around it that the planets produce as outer physical events. Yet observation shows that Black Moon called Lilith is inwardly
active of nature. It can coincide with how one feels deep inside that can create an inner world through which one is guided.....positively or negatively speaking. BML in 12 can totally 'withdraw' into its inner world that then becomes the equivalent of outer reality....again positively or negatively. BML in Pisces has coincided with total disassociation from the physical world, especially when any harsh aspect from Uranus has brought about defragmentation rather than independence of the Spirit.
You might say, 'yeah....but that can be said of Neptune.' I would disagree because Neptune is a physical planet, thus bringing about REAL events that one prefers not to see and, consequently, disassociates from. BML can be associated to the power that springs from a world of self-created images. A Moon in Scorpio might actually produce a reaction that brings out 'the revenge of the woman scorned'; BML in the same sign could imagine 1000 ways to kill someone, yet would have to have 'outer access' through the door of an aspect to a physical planet to implement it.

I feel since Lilith was not accepted and banned from paradise, perhaps in our charts she shows us those parts of ourselves that we/others cannot accept and therefore they get banned or hidden in a deeper place in our psyche, and so often become the cause of deep pain, until they can be understood and dealt with.
From 12+ years of studying BML I would say there is no 'perhaps' about it!
You seem to have grasped the elusive in BML.
Do you work with progressed positions and solar arc directions Bina?
Using mental calculation, solar arc BML is now directly opposing natal Moon, thus finding an opening towards outer expression through the Moon-Mercury opposition!
Your secondary progressed Sun is applying within orb to natal Jupiter in Gemini (inner knowledge learning?), thus completing its square aspect in the chart, and opening the trine to natal BML. Hopefully this can mean that inner experiences may occur through which any and all Self-denial will eventually admit 'the inner child', who did absolutely nothing wrong but was blamed for all that was not its fault, back into its fold. The Spirit will feel complete and Black Moon called Lilith WILL have returned home to the fold. Paradise lost can be found???
It took the total Solar Eclipse of 1999 conjunct my natal 12th house Jupiter square Sun to achieve the same over a 4 year period.
With Jupiter?......the best of good luck to you.
