Issues with Lilith

Here's something I hadn't written in my late book Mundane Body Magick. It's not even mentioned in Asteria because the topic would've derailed if we wrote more than a couple of tightly packed paragraphs on the topic, but at the same time readers would've found that out of place without further explanation. It's about the Black Moon's effects by its placement in signs in natal charts and it covers more than a few possibilities of generating discomfort. 

The amount of that discomfort and its nature will vary, usually due to any aspects BML is involved in and their effects will be felt mostly in the areas of life covered by the house BML occupies. There are benefits to such placements too, but people should identify them by themselves because there's a heavy dose of subjectivity involved - i.e. BML in Aries can make someone have a certain look which some people might not like having...

Moving on to the point, the signs govern body parts and such a placement is likely to cause certain unpleasant issues in the body parts governed by the sign BML occupies:

Aries - head

Taurus - neck and throat

Gemini - shoulders and arms

Cancer - breasts and lungs

Leo - heart, spine and upper back

Virgo - intestines and nervous system

Libra - kidneys and buttocks

Scorpio - sex organs and anus

Sagittarius - hips and thighs

Capricorn - knees (joints in general and bones)

Aquarius - lower part of the legs

Pisces - feet

Here's some examples based on a few observed cases, yours truly included:

1. Person with BML in Aries received a hard blow to the head when he was a child. He started manifesting violent outbursts because the blow must've caused a concussion that put pressure on the brain. Since it went untreated because the guy was afraid to tell his parents he almost splashed his brains on the sidewalk doing something he wasn't supposed to do, the pressure on the brain must've remained for longer, causing his still growing brain to develop improperly, especially his frontal lobe, the area of the head that suffered the trauma and the one responsible for behavior.

2. Another person with BML in Aries has a peculiar shaped forehead. Some find the woman more attractive because of it, others quite the opposite. She doesn't seem to mind having that particular forehead.

3. Person with BML in Cancer has breasts of a smaller size. While she's trying not to make it obvious, she is really annoyed with her breast size.

4. Yours truly has BML in Gemini. Ever since I can remember the joint in my right shoulder is less flexible than the one in my left shoulder. This has proven problematic for me along the way, especially when playing basketball (not that I like it, but they made me do it in school and I hate to lose regardless of the sport) or whenever I had to perform various chores that involve mostly manual labor. Drilling holes in the ceiling for more than a few hours a day using a heavy duty power drill as part of my job kinda sucked for me, to say the least. 

5. Person with BML in Taurus underwent a tonsil removal operation which healed slowly and painfully. Her voice changed permanently and it sounds weird af although from what I've noticed she doesn't seem to mind.

Bedsides physical issues BML is also responsible for psychological ones. In general, BML is why people are hypocrites.

For example, whenever you come across occultists who go out of they way to come across as knowledgeable, authority figures, etc, etc, and scholars at the same time while using complex ways of expressing themselves, that's BML. Instead of acting naturally they want to impose a certain image unto others and the reasons behind this are usually shame, guilt, self doubt, fear and others. It is as as if they deeply feel others would see them differently and in ways that would end up causing them harm if they acted naturally. At the same time, BML would make them slip more or less slightly whenever they're showing off they way they want and allows others to get a glimpse of what's actually behind the mask.

Now, I've talked about the mask in regards to the Ascendant and how people usually drop that mask and act more naturally towards people they're aquatinted, in the Descendant. But BML is beyond that and it also makes people put on a show when they're acting in the Descendant and not being true to their nature even when they're interacting with a friend or loved one. This also occurs on a collective level.

Ever since the fighting began in the Ukraine, very many people started sympathizing with the Ukrainian people even if lots of them had no idea where to place Ukraine on the map beforehand. I'm not saying this is a bad thing, but forcing yourself to pronounce Kyiv like native Ukrainians is a hypocrisy in that context. In reality, these people want to come across as being caring and nice and all that, when instead I bet they don't give a fuck about whatever's going on somewhere far far away and they may even be pissed their country is sending millions of dollars worth of aid to some country they prolly hadn't even heard of while prices are skyrocketing at home. 

It's true there are many people who's innate empathy is greater than others', but don't tell me everyone is THAT caring. If they were they'd actually go about gathering supplies and shipping them to the Ukraine, mobilizing people to donate and doing it themselves, etc. In short, they wouldn't have time to pose as being caring. At least in the case of the media they're being their usual bitches and simply want to impress and manipulate people in certain ways and they're doing that through hypocrisy. On the same note, dizni are being hypocrites whenever they're accusing fans of real Star Wars of racism because those fans don't like the pathetic characters they've introduced ever since they bought the franchise, some of those characters being played by black actors. On the other hand, dizni has treated black actors like crap and you need to look no further that the guy who played Finn in their garbage movies and see how his character was turned into a clown.

Same shit with placing the Ukrainian flag on your profile picture unless you're actually connected to the suffering in some way or someone you care about is. It happened back during those terrorist attacks in France and on many other occasions throughout time. The hypocrisy goes even further when such people start pointing their finger at others for not acting the way they do and start berating them for being insensitive and so on.

You prolly must've noticed by now I have yet to bring up the subject of the war in the Ukraine even if it's across the border from me. The reason I'm not doing it is because I have nothing to say about a struggle that has rots further back in history than thirty years, except that I see the suffering of the people involved as pointless. My selfish needs require there be peace on my borders and I've been addressing that magically every now and then whenever I had the chance yet I kept it to myself. But flooding the internet with sympathy is hypocrisy in many cases and I won't be doing that. 

The problem with BML is people are mostly unaware of the personality glitches it causes and thus are often taken by surprise whenever someone happens to them out. They usually become very defensive and in some cases end up holding a huge grudge on whoever it was that noticed them. This happens all the time in everyday life and it's what causes couples that were apparently inseparable to hate each other to death after a sudden violent fight that lead to separation. Or two very good friends to become mortal enemies all of the sudden. It is a result of the hypocrisy meter going past critical point and the resulting malfunction detonates the shit bomb people had been carefully sitting on for a long time. 

And don't make me start talking about BML in synastry because the way I figure it there's still many books to be written on the subject. I've detailed on a concrete example in Asteria 2. Eventually others will have to step in and take over.

That is why more and more people would need to work towards understanding and exploring their natal BML through both astrological and magical means. We've talked about it in Asteria and Mr. Farrell and his spouse have added further layers to it in Asteria 2. There's also several decent free sources online that detail on this subject. 

In doing so, people will gradually start realizing shit about themselves and sooner or later they're going to start accepting that shit. Later on, they're going to feel comfortable being more at peace while their good, bad, and ugly sides start playing better together. Eventually, they're going to experience liberation after having integrated all that stuff into a solid monolith-like structure. Only then will they stop posing as something they're trying to come across as and start acting according to their true nature, regardless of their natal BML placement (and the aspects involved) or any BML aspect in synastry they encounter. They will do that without giving a fuck what others say and think.
