An exploration of the Black Moon Lilith placement in astrology—a widely searched yet underserved topic—that reclaims the misunderstood archetype of Lilith and shows you how to use her energy for empowerment and transformation.
Black Moon Lilith Rising is unlike any other astrology book out there on multiple it is a comprehensive exploration of the placement of Lilith in astrology, it’s a deep exploration into the misunderstood myth and archetype of Lilith, and it incorporates shadow work and spiritual alchemy.
The book begins with an ode to Lilith, anecdotal stories surrounding the author’s experience with the energy, the history, and mythology behind the Lilith archetype. Lilith has been demonized, known as the first rebellious, disobedient woman, but in fact she is a powerful, sovereign being. By untwisting the truth about her energy, the world can heal the suppressed feminine, balance the power dynamic, and ascend.

This books reads like an essay. I didn’t care for the book until chapter 7. However the oracle deck that belongs to this book is stunning. I wish the book was just as good as the deck.
I'm so grateful to have this book in the world! It does an excellent break down of Black Moon Lilith through all the houses of astrology, with and through each of the signs. It's thorough and straight forward with clear examples of well known people in modern culture to help us understand the energetics, themes, and lessons at play and how to work with them. This is a book I will refer back to over and over again.
What an interesting topic. I was a bit confused about the aspects in the middle of the book and didn't realize there were clearer explanations at the back but otherwise a really informative book and a great workbook in the back with exercises that I'm actually excited to try (ADD brain) and breakdowns of planets and Houses and Tropical etc at the end of the book were really helpful. I got this one from the library too so I'll have to buy a copy.
This book was a great read. A lot of it went over my head because let’s face it astrology is not the easier subject to learn. I think the author made it simple enough though for me to go back and read the parts specifically for me. I can’t wait to do the 13 day ritual starting April first right in time for my birthday.
The concept of Black Moon Lilith is not easy to grasp. It seems easy… one can find YT videos on the topic, short descriptions here and there. But the understanding of BML doesn’t happen in one pass. It is built into layers.
This book laid yet another layer on my knowledge on the topic.
I really enjoyed this book. A definite must read for people into astrology. My only complaint is I wish it had been longer then it could have gone into even more detail.
