Priestess of Lilith: An Advanced Study of Lilith for Emerging Priestesses
This is not a beginner’s guide to Lilith.
Priestess of Lilith is an initiatory work for women walking a mature Divine Feminine and shadow path. It is written for priestesses, mystics, and women ready to embody sovereignty, not simply study myth.
From the author of the channelled bestseller Awakening Lilith comes the next evolution of the Lilith journey, a deeper, embodied initiation into the mysteries of the Divine Feminine and the sacred path of the priestess.
In Awakening Lilith, author and priestess Lisa Hoffman shared the channelled transmissions that first awakened her own Lilith current.
In Priestess of Lilith, she takes readers further along this path of remembrance. This book is not only a continuation of that awakening, but a deepening, born from lived priestess experience, study, and integration. It weaves together the spiritual, historical, and cosmological threads of Lilith’s lineage, tracing her mythology from her earliest Mesopotamian and Sumerian roots through to the cosmic origins of creation itself, where energy first took form and the pulse of the universe began.
Drawing from years of research and spiritual practice, Lisa connects the ancient with the eternal. She explores how the myths of Lilith, as spirit, goddess, wind, and initiatrix, reveal profound truths about human consciousness, feminine embodiment, and the cyclical nature of transformation. Within these pages, Lilith is no longer a demonised figure of rebellion but a ray of the Divine Feminine, a guide through shadow, a teacher of wholeness, and an archetype of freedom and truth.
Through storytelling, reflection, and priestess teachings, Priestess of Lilith invites readers to move beyond fear-based interpretations and rediscover Lilith as an ancient force of creation and awakening. Each chapter unfolds as both a revelation and a rite, leading you through descent, shadow, reclamation, and rebirth. It is not simply a book to be read, but a living initiation to be felt and embodied.
This book is written for women already walking a conscious spiritual path who feel called to priestess work, shadow integration, and Divine Feminine embodiment. It is for emerging priestesses, healers, and mystics who sense that their soul’s work is tied to the reawakening of the Divine Feminine and the restoration of sacred balance on Earth.
Lisa shares her own story with raw honesty and heart, showing how working with Lilith’s energy continues to shape her journey as a woman, teacher, and channel. She reminds us that the path of the priestess is not about perfection or purity, but about presence, the courage to descend, to witness, and to rise again with deeper wisdom.

About the author
Lisa Hoffman
7 books13 followersG’day, I’m Lisa Hoffman.
I am an author devoted to reclaiming the Divine Feminine and guiding women back to their inner power, wisdom, and sacred remembrance. Writing under both my name and my pen name, Sofia Hator, I channel books that explore goddess mythology, shadow work, feminine embodiment, and the priestess path. My work weaves ancient archetypes, divine feminine transmissions, and modern spirituality to support women on their journey of awakening and self-sovereignty.
Alongside my spiritual writing, I am also a children’s author with a passion for making science magical. As an experienced early-years educator, I create modern science-meets-adventure stories that make concepts like chromatography, static electricity, and centrifugal force fun, accessible, and exciting for young readers. My mission is to nurture curiosity, imagination, and a love of learning through storytelling.
Whether writing for the awakened woman or the curious child, my intention is the same: to inspire, empower, and ignite the spark of possibility.

Priestess of Lilith is not another fluffy tome on women's empowerment. It is a rigorous, richly layered examination of Lilith as archetype, as force, and as lineage. Backed by theory and shaped by initiatory insight, this work belongs in the hands of serious practitioners. These are the readers who understand that true reclamation is neither comfortable nor clean.
What stands out immediately is the book’s refusal to flatten Lilith into a symbol of unnuanced rage or sensuality. Instead, Hoffman and Hator explore her as a liminal figure. She is an archetypal exile who never needed to return. This is not about finding your way back. It is about choosing to stay out. The text traces a harsh reclamation of truth, one that demands we sit with discomfort, contradiction, and power without apology.
The writing is beautiful. Evocative without veering into the saccharine, it holds its form through each chapter, balancing spiritual exploration with historical and psychological weight. The authors walk the reader through Lilith’s transformation across key periods. These include the Hebrew Bible (800 BCE to 70 BCE), Dead Sea Scrolls (500 BCE to 70 CE), Talmud (200 to 600 CE), Alphabet of Ben Sira (700 to 1000 CE), and Kabbalistic traditions (1100 to 1300 AD). They do not simply recount myth. They interrogate it. Their analysis of the contradictions in Ben Sira is particularly strong, resisting any tendency to reduce Lilith to a single role or lineage.
A crucial contribution is the discussion of medical history and mortality rates. This context grounds Lilith’s association with infant death in its proper sociohistorical frame. Rather than demonising the Lilitu outright, the authors show how ancient communities developed protective amulets to redirect her energy. The goal was not to destroy her. It is a nuanced observation that honours the complexity of ancient belief and the shadow energies we still navigate today.
That said, the book would benefit from more precise sourcing. While there is a reference list, the absence of citations within the text makes it difficult to track where specific historical claims originate. For a reader invested in further research, this is a notable gap. Much of the material discussed is not general knowledge. Inline references or endnotes would have strengthened the academic integrity of an otherwise well-argued text.
Importantly, the book situates Lilith not as a literal mother, but as an archetypal one. She births transformation, rage, boundary, and exile. Not children. This distinction matters, especially when untangling spiritual motherhood from cultural prescriptions of maternal identity. In this way, the authors expand what it means to mother, to create, and to hold space.
The final chapters on Black Moon Lilith and natal Lilith placements are among the most powerful in the book. They offer grounded, in-depth frameworks for working with astrological Lilith through a lens of sovereignty and shadow integration, not sensationalism. This is a welcome addition to both astrological and spiritual practice.
Priestess of Lilith is not an introductory text. It is for those who are already in the work and ready to go deeper. For readers seeking a rigorous, historically informed, archetypally rich exploration of Lilith in her many forms, this book offers a worthy initiation.

This was a really solid and enjoyable read. The book dives deeply into Lilith, but it does so in a way that feels intentional and empowering rather than overwhelming. It strikes a nice balance between history, myth, and modern practice, making it approachable while still feeling meaningful for those wanting to deepen their understanding and connection.
I appreciated how reflective and affirming the tone was throughout. It encouraged personal exploration and intuition instead of presenting things as rigid or prescriptive, which made the material feel more personal and usable. This is definitely the kind of book you want to linger with, reread, and reference again as your practice evolves.
I read this digitally, but I will absolutely be purchasing a physical copy for my library. It feels like a book that belongs on the shelf, well loved and frequently returned to. Highly recommend for anyone drawn to Lilith work or interested in reclaiming power, autonomy, and sacred feminine energy through a thoughtful lens.

Lilith
I have always wondered about Lilith in the Bible. She is not melting very often and seems to be the first wife of Adam. The author gives a different view of Lilith has more of a transformation than punishment. I found the book interesting but not really believable. I recommend this book for those who wanna find out more about Lilli with an open mind.
