Black Moon in the 1st house:
Strong influence of the values of the Black Moon in the native's
personality.
Intense passions - but they may be hidden in the depths of the
unconscious mind (Pandora's box) . Extremely violent emotions at
times.
Rebellious nature, which can engage in fights against patriarchal
authority. In a female chart, in particular, this can mean great
difficulties and conflicts with the father.
Profound connection with occult mysteries. Natural understanding of
the hidden laws of nature.
Having Black Moon in the first house is an invitation for the native
to study the myth of Lilith and ponder on its implications.
Black Moon in the 2nd house:
Black Moon, symbol of anti-establishment and profound emotional
intensity in the house of finances.
Black Moon creates extremely strong fascinations which are not
devoid of a certain degree of ambivalence. In the house of finances,
this can mean a deeply conflictive relationship to money: on the one
hand, hating it as a symbol of enslaving establishment; on the other
hand, secretly desiring it with fiery intensity.
Sometimes the native denies himself/herself money, by unconsciously
making life choices which lead to situations of material scarcity.
Even if the native is quite successful materially, Black Moon in the
second house can indicate deep fears related to money and taxes -
fear of losing everything, in particular. If they are not identified
and worked through, these fears could lead to misjudgments and wrong
decisions at critical times of their life.
Black Moon in the 3rd house:
Black Moon, symbol of the deepest inner passions in the house of
brothers and sisters and communication.
This position can manifest in several different ways. One of them is
the death of a brother or sister during one's early years. If such
death has taken place (even if only in the form of a miscarriage by
the mother), it is likely to have left an extremely profound imprint
in the native's psyche. It can be an ambivalent fascination-fear of
death, or a deeply ingrained belief that one has no right to live.
In any case it calls for a thorough work of self exploration - the
long term consequences of the event are likely to be much deeper
than you may think at first.
Black Moon in the third house can also indicate that the native
finds in writing (notes, a journal, or even stories or books) an
outlet for the deep passions and emotions of his/her unconscious
mind. Engaging in communication with others can be a way of touching
and addressing profound issues inside oneself.
Black Moon in the 4th house:
Black Moon, which relates to the deepest emotions and passions, in
the house of the deepest depth of the personality.
2
In the house of the home, Black Moon can indicate a bottomless wound
related to the family environment in early years, such as death of
the mother, separation from one's family, major trauma during
infanthood - or even earlier, in the womb.
Whether you had a family or not, it is likely to have left a heavy
weight on your shoulders!
Because of the ambivalence between fascination and abhorrence so
intrinsically linked to the symbolism of the Black Moon, this
position can also manifest as a burning need to cut one's family
roots and disconnect from one's parents. If you find that you often
change the place where you live, then you should ask yourself
whether this has something to do with your Black Moon in the 4th
house - never feeling really at home anywhere because of an
unconscious wound, rather than with climate or real estate reasons.
On the higher mode, Black Moon in the 4th can indicate a natural
affinity and understanding of spiritual and occults laws, a profound
intuition which can know the mysteries of the creation. This goes
with an extraordinarily sharp perception of other people's emotions
and fundamental motivations.
Black Moon in the 5th house:
Black Moon in the house of affairs, creativity, and children.
In a female chart, this position can indicate a great ambivalence as
far as having children is concerned: on the one hand, extremely
intense desire (but Black Moon desires are like violent and hidden
passions); on the other hand repulsion and deep fears (as in fear of
delivery, for instance, or fear of hating one's child). If the these
unconscious or semi-unconscious issues are not resolved, they can
lead to difficulties in conception.
Similar symbolism applies to creativity in general. The need for
perfection can be extremely intense, making the native work hard and
for long hours to realise his/her objectives. It can also become
paralysing at times, as in not doing anything by fear of doing
something that would not be good enough.
If a harmonious relationship to one's unconscious mind can be
established, then this position can lead to an outpouring of
creativity, and also to great originality (as in the non-conformist
nature of the rebellious Lilith.)
Black Moon in the 6th house:
Lilith in the workplace.
In the house of daily routines and attitudes to work, Black Moon,
symbol of rebellion and anti-establishment, can of course lead to
unconventional activities in which one is not subjected to anyone
and freed from enslaving routines. It can also lead to
systematically challenging the authority of one's boss(es), and
therefore to difficulties in securing a stable professional
position.
But the values of the Black Moon are deep and often unconscious, and
so the rebellious tendencies may not even be perceived by the
native. The result may simply be slumber - going from day to day
without questioning one's role on the planet, or why one carries on
with a particular job.
The 6th house also relates to health. For the purpose of healing, it
3
may be extremely important to know that a person's Black Moon is
located in the 6th. Disease can then take a highly symbolic
significance, meaning that observed symptoms are not to be
understood and treated for what they are by themselves, but for the
profound emotional forces which reflect into them from the deepest
of the psyche. More than ever, it is the whole person that must be
treated, and not his/her symptoms.
Black Moon in the 7th house:
Super-charged relationships and quest for perfection.
The Black Moon relates to the deepest and most hidden parts of the
psyche; the 7th house relates to close relationships. This can make
the native project extremely high emotional charges onto partners
and close friends. Personal attractions (and repulsions) can be
exceptionally intense. Relationships can thus bring profound healing
and/or an exacerbation of the deepest psychological wounds. This
position is an invitation for the native to take a close look at
whether they do project violent emotions onto the people with whom
they are closely associated.
Black Moon - Lilith carries a profound longing for the absolute.
Transposed to relationships this means you are likely to have high
expectations of your partners, and thus be mortally disappointed
when you realise they are not perfect like God. Withdrawing from
relationships in such times of crisis can be a grave mistake, as
these crises are often self-engineered to reveal profound aspects of
yourself and allow resolution of your deeper conflicts, and healing.
Black Moon in the 7th is also a factor to attract people of great
independence and originality to you - people with the qualities of
Lilith: full-on passions and emotions, rebellious nature, dislike
of patriarchal establishment and a need for absolute perfection.
With this position, returns of the Black Moon to the native Black
Moon can bring upheavals in relationships. The more prepared the
native is, the more these upheavals are likely to take the shape of
healthy new beginnings, rather than painful crises.
Black Moon in the 8th house:
The chart's most metaphysical point in the house of sexuality,
death, and occult magnetism.
Black Moon in the 8th house can make sexuality awesome, sacred,
magic - a ritual that puts you in touch with the deepest parts of
your psyche. This position goes well with a need for extremes, and
even a quest of the absolute in one's sexual experiences.
But if the native is disconnected from the depth of his psyche, the
result can be the opposite: an empty sexuality which does not create
much satisfaction, or even a disinterest in sex. One step further
and it can be a complete denial - Lilith is the one who says 'No!'.
This denial is in reality a denial of one's inner conflicts. Through
inner work, a complete turnaround can take place.
With Black Moon in the 8th house, the death of relatives or
acquaintances is likely to have a profound psychological impact on
the native. It can trigger deep crises, but also realisations, and
therefore changes.
In the house of occult magnetism, Black Moon can signify a natural
affinity with secret laws of nature and a great intuition of the
4
hidden things of life.
Black Moon in the 9th house:
Black Moon - Lilith, the power to reject all limitations, in the
house of transcending limits.
This position can give a great sense of the absolute, and an
unabated idealism. It can thus lead to a rejection of conventional
studies as being futile and failing to address the reality of life.
On the higher mode, this can lead to a spiritual quest of a high
level, fed by relentless aspiration and fascination with the goal,
and devoid of any form of compromising. On a not so high mode, it
can translate into a rejection of intellectuality, to which deep
instinctual knowingness is preferred. In any case, there is likely
to be a profound integration of instinct and knowledge; the native
knows 'the inside of things', using his/her sharp intuition and
capacity to penetrate the intimate nature of things and people.
The returns of Black Moon on its native position can lead the native
to a profound rethinking of his/her values, belief system, and
position in the world. These are key times in life during which the
native can feel the push to engage in a completely different path
and start a new life.
Black Moon in the 10th house:
Great potential for originality and independence of mind, and the
need to find a professional occupation where these may flourish.
Black Moon Lilith, by nature, does not like rigid establishment or
anything that resembles patriarchal authority. In the house of
career, this may lead to avoiding conventional forms of profession,
and seeking for unusual activity. The native can become marginal.
Even if he/she is not, there are likely to be times with a huge pull
to be self employed - and also times of open conflict with one's
boss. (Anyone with the Black Moon in this position will be well
inspired to practise deep breathing for a few minutes before
engaging in any kind of potentially-heated discussion with their
boss.)
There is a deep potential for originality, which will blossom in
creative occupations (where this originality can become an
advantage, not a handicap). Black Moon in the 10th enhances the
challenge of finding the right activity in life - the one in which
you can blossom and fully express your individual nature.
Look for the transits of Black Moon on Black Moon as times when
major changes of direction and professional occupation may occur.
Because the Black Moon is related to the deepest emotional strata of
the psyche, it is essential to keep one's emotional clarity during
these periods, so as to make right choices and decisions.
Black Moon in the 11th house:
Quest of perfection in friendship and need to match idealism with
reality.
Black Moon - Lilith's absolutism can lead the native to be extremely
selective - and also demanding - when it comes to friendship. There
is also a risk of projecting onto one's friends huge emotional
demands, and of unconsciously using relationships with them to work
5
one's deep emotional conflicts. At times, this can lead to feeling
betrayed by one's friends, especially when they find it difficult to
cope with the pressure that placed on them.
The need for absolute and perfection is also likely to bring the
desire to make great contributions to the collectivity - doing
something unique that would benefit humanity. This can lead to great
realisations, but it also calls for the necessity to cultivate
realism. Sometimes, by wanting to give only the best, one ends up
giving nothing at all.
Black Moon in the 12th house:
An invitation to transcend all limitations and dive into cosmic
existence.
An invitation to dive into the unconscious and explore the depth of
one's nature. Without such in-depth exploration, massive unresolved
conflicts may completely block the native's expression in the world,
and attract dramatic life circumstances. Black Moon in the 12th is
like a wound, but a wound in the highest meaning of the term - a
gateway into one's absolute depth. With it comes a challenge: find
your essence and be yourself completely, or suffer the slings and
arrows of (often self-inflicted) outrageous fortune - karma,
samskaras... you name it! Black Moon - Lilith, like a powerful
guardian angel, will not allow you to sleep blissfully through a
life in which you could reach awakening.
On the higher mode, this is an extremely powerful position. There is
great wisdom and intuitive knowingness of hidden things associated
with the Black Moon; and the 12th is the house of final maturity,
where all aspects of life are recapitulated and realised in a higher
spiritual unity.
LILITH ASPECTS
Sun-Black Moon conjunction:
Being conjunct to the Sun makes the Black Moon extremely powerful.
Especially (but not only) in a female chart, a major aspect of Black
Moon to the Sun tends to create a 'Lilith character': strong-willed,
stubborn, independent mind and lover of freedom, original,
non-conformist, rebellious, passionately disliking routines and
enslavement at large. Lilith was the woman who did not need Adam and
left him - not a common thing to do in early biblical times - one
reason being that she bluntly refused to lie under him during
lovemaking.
There is a profound need to go beyond limitations of all kinds.
This, naturally, leads the native to challenge establishment. At
times, it will create difficulties; a Lilith character does not
hesitate to tell her/his boss what she/he thinks of him, and can't
give a damn about consequences once she/he has made up her mind to
do something.
The eyes shine, at times defiantly. The personality is sharp, with a
marked taste for intensity. This, in Clairvision language,
corresponds to violent astrality - venom in large measure!
There are strong likes and dislikes, and a tendency to know
immediately whether one likes someone or not.
6
This may have to do with the profound insights into the
psychological motivations of other people. Being herself/himself so
well in touch with her/his shadow, the native has a fine
understanding of other people's psyche. A Lilith character is often
subtle, with a great sense of nuances, and an EXTREME sensitivity.
Problems with the father:
With this aspect, it is not rare to find that the native had major
problems with the father (especially in the chart of a female).
Either the father was absent, or perceived as absent, or was fought
against. There is likely to be some deeply rooted wound in the
psyche, relating to the father, with profound consequences on the
whole organisation of the personality.
In symbolical terms this conflict with the father goes far beyond
childhood scenarios. It is the father image, in its widest meaning,
which is involved here. Think of Lilith, angry at God for making her
subjected to Adam's authority (and patriarchal establishment at
large), and lamenting, "How could He [God the Father] do that to
me?"
It is the same wound that you are carrying. It was so deep that it
never healed.
When experienced on its highest level, a major aspect of Black Moon
to the Sun can make the native quite psychic: premonitory dreams,
intuition, natural affinity with the hidden mysteries of life, and
clairvoyance.

Moon-Black Moon conjunction:
A major aspect of the Black Moon to the Moon tends to add depth and
stamina to it. The Moon, which by itself can be rather mellow, is
reinforced by the qualities of independence and originality
associated with the Black Moon, which many astrologers associate
with Lilith the rebel, the woman who was created at the same time as
Adam, not after him, and who separated from him because she could
not bear to be subjected to his authority.
The Moon and Black Moon are both related to the subconscious and
unconscious parts of the psyche. People with this aspect are likely
to be quite in touch with the depth of themselves.
Consequently, at times there will be extremely violent emotions -
the monsters of the depth are not buried far away, as they are in
most people; they tend to manifest more directly in the person's
mind.
But on the higher mode, the result of a Black Moon - Moon major
aspect can be an exceptional intuition. In particular, the person
can understand other people and feel what they feel as if they were
inside them. There is also likely to be easy access to clairvoyance
and higher aspects of spiritual Sight.
With this aspect, it is likely that the transits of the Black Moon
on the native Moon and Black Moon will be felt with great intensity.
On the lower mode, they may cause periods of emotional instability.
But on the higher mode (if the native has worked on himself/herself)
they may be times when great inner insights can be achieved, as well
as remarkable spiritual progress.

Mercury-Black Moon conjunction:
Adds depth to Mercury, and connection between the conscious and
subconscious levels of the mind.
Mercury can only gain in depth from its association with the Black
Moon. The Black Moon adds sharpness and wit. Mercury allows an
expression of the profound values associated with the Black Moon
(which signifies the unconscious levels of the psyche). The
combination can bring wisdom, as well as intuition. On a simple
level, this intuition will result in instant and extremely accurate
insights into other people's emotions - knowing their nature from
the inside, rather than judging them by their facade.
The understanding of other people's psychology also has to do with
the fact that the native's own inner life is quite sophisticated and
complex. Mercury stands for the conscious mind, Black Moon for the
subconscious and unconscious parts of the psyche. The association of
the two means that there are more bridges between the different
levels of the psyche than in other individuals.
This will not always be easy to bear. At times, this open
communication between conscious and unconscious mind will trigger
heavy emotions, crises, anxiety or even depression. Still, it is the
foundation for a high degree of self knowledge.
With this aspect, you will be well advised to watch the transits
(passages) of Black Moon on the natal Mercury and Black Moon. These
may be times when profound rearrangements of your thought patterns
take place, and therefore golden opportunities to achieve a great
amount of work on yourself. Conversely, the less you know yourself,
12
the more these transits may result in situations of inner crisis.
On a higher level, this aspect of Mercury to the Black Moon can help
you become quite psychic (Clairvision higher mode). For
Lilith-Black Moon, a highly metaphysical point in the chart, is
plugged directly into your Mercury-mental consciousness. This means
a natural affinity with the hidden mysteries of life, and a great
capacity to fathom them.

amount of work on yourself. Conversely, the less you know yourself,
the more these transits may result in situations of inner crisis.
On a higher level, this aspect of Mercury to the Black Moon can help
you become quite psychic (Clairvision higher mode). For
Lilith-Black Moon, a highly metaphysical point in the chart, is
plugged directly into your Mercury-mental consciousness. This means
a natural affinity with the hidden mysteries of life, and a great
capacity to fathom them.
Mercury-Black Moon trine:
Adds depth to Mercury, and connection between the conscious and
subconscious levels of the mind.
Mercury can only gain in depth from its association with the Black
Moon. The Black Moon adds sharpness and wit. Mercury allows an
expression of the profound values associated with the Black Moon
(which signifies the unconscious levels of the psyche). The
combination can bring wisdom, as well as intuition. On a simple
level, this intuition will result in instant and extremely accurate
insights into other people's emotions - knowing their nature from
the inside, rather than judging them by their facade.
The understanding of other people's psychology also has to do with
13
the fact that the native's own inner life is quite sophisticated and
complex. Mercury stands for the conscious mind, Black Moon for the
subconscious and unconscious parts of the psyche. The association of
the two means that there are more bridges between the different
levels of the psyche than in other individuals.
This will not always be easy to bear. At times, this open
communication between conscious and unconscious mind will trigger
heavy emotions, crises, anxiety or even depression. Still, it is the
foundation for a high degree of self knowledge.

Venus-Black Moon conjunction:
Black Moon adds depth and originality to Venus.
On one level, the combination can be excellent. Venus has several
wonderful sides, but by itself can sometimes be superficial. From
that point of view, it can only benefit from the exacting influence
of Black Moon, and of its need for ideal, absolute and perfection.
This can lead to powerful realisations, not only in the field of
arts, but also in several other professional activities - provided
they can be an outlet for your creativity. (Black Moon does enhance
the creative side of Venus. In many cases, it also adds a
metaphysical dimension to it.)
Because the need for perfection can be extreme, you must make sure
that it does not become paralysing (as in the case of people who
prefer to refrain from relationships rather than being with someone
who is not the absolute perfect match, or people who prefer to
create nothing rather than run the risk of creating something
imperfect).
Venus, planet of desire, can also be taken deep down into the
unconscious realms of Black Moon -Lilith. Thus Venus - Black Moon
aspects have a number of points in common with Venus - Pluto
aspects. At their maximum, they can lead to devouring desires and
passions. They can also cause the native to be magnetically
attracted to dangerous people or situations.
In particular, carefully watch who enters your life at the time of a
return of Lilith (transiting Black Moon conjunct to native Black
Moon).
The person is likely to move something deep in your unconscious
mind and have a profound impact on your belief system and your
values, which could result in significant changes in your life.

Mars-Black Moon conjunction:
Key Words: the Mars stamina pulled towards the inner universe.
The Black Moon, with its metaphysical depth and its intimate
relationship to the deepest of the human psyche, can significantly
modify the significance of Mars in a chart. It adds an occult
dimension to it. It makes the native more likely to use his/her Mars
energy to work on himself/herself and explore inner worlds rather
than only being concerned with external things and the material
world. It can give a strong need to follow a spiritual path and
explore the hidden mysteries of existence rather than just being
engaged in materialistic pursuits.
The conjunction and the opposition, in particular, give sharp astral
energy in plenty and are excellent aspects for becoming an ISIS
practitioner, to explore the depth of the human subconscious, or to
deal with occult matters.
17
But at times, the pull towards the depth of the psyche can also
result in a paralysis of the Mars stamina, caused by deep unresolved
conflicts. Profound inner upheavals can then make the native go
through phases of an 'eclipsed Mars', losing their sense of
direction and being unable to achieve in the world. This is a
general characteristic about the Black Moon: to those who are in
touch with the depth of themselves, it gives sharpness and adds even
further depth. But to those who are disconnected from their own
depth, it can creates crises of great magnitude.

Jupiter-Black Moon conjunction:
Key words: Jupiter sharpened by the Black Moon, or bogged in the
shadow.
Jupiter can greatly benefit from the sharp, exacting nature of the
Black Moon. The need for perfection and the absolute, which is
inherent to the Black Moon can give direction to Jupiter's values of
expansion and growth, and thus help it gain momentum and achieve in
the world.
With this aspect, your Jupiterian power of material realisation
depends a great deal on your clarity of purpose and your sense of
integrity. If there is no truth for you in a project or a particular
job, better not waste you time on it; your Jupiter enthusiasm would
refuse to support you in it, and you would be likely to achieve but
mediocre results. Conversely, when you feel that truth is on your
side, you can find deep inner resources that make you unstoppable.
Another possible scenario with this aspect is that the shadow side
of the Black Moon, i.e. deep psychological conflicts buried in your
19
subconscious mind, obliterate the expansion power of Jupiter. Put in
simple terms, this means that if you have difficulties achieving
anything substantial in the material world, it could well be because
the power of your subconscious and unconscious mind is in the way.
This can mean that a thorough exploration is needed. But for some
people, it can be the opposite: too much self-exploration renders
the shadow more invalidating! Rather than a simple formula, what is
needed here is the establishment of a harmonious relationship with
the unconscious parts of your mind.
This aspect suggests that you should watch the transits of the Black
Moon on your native Black Moon and Jupiter. At these times, the
question of the relationship between unconscious and power of action
in the world are likely to be particularly acute. The more prepared
you are for them, the more those crises are likely to result in
positive readjustments of your activities and goals, rather than in
'bogs' in which you have no taste for action.

Saturn-Black Moon conjunction:
Aspects between the Black Moon and Saturn are powerful, in
particular because of the affinity of the two objects (in the
Kabbalah, Lilith is related to the planet Saturn).
The Black Moon's aspiration for perfection and the rigorous,
exacting nature of Saturn reinforce each other. The combination can
result in an extreme need for purity. If Saturn is strong in the
chart, this is an aspect for brown rice and a carefully selected
diet (not one mouthful in excess), and great cleanliness in general.
There is a profound need for inner clarity. This also has to do with
the fact that at times, Saturn can get locked in the shadow side of
the Black Moon. Unless great inner clarity has been achieved, this
may result in phases of gloomy depression.
Watch in particular the periods when the Black Moon transits the
natal Saturn and Black Moon. These are potential times of crisis. If
unprepared, their intensity may take you by surprise. The more you
know yourself and have explored the depth of your unconscious mind,
the more these times of transits are likely to bring realisations
and positive change in your life rather than depression.
On the higher mode, both the Black Moon and Saturn are potentially
very wise. They both have depth and reinforce each other in
intensity. Combined with Saturn's inherent structuring power, the
sharpness of Black Moon can flourish in intelligence and wit. The
result is a N.B.Y. (Not Born Yesterday) person who cannot be fooled
by appearances and knows how to respond to all situations.

Uranus-Black Moon conjunction:
The Black Moon reinforces the independent and original nature of
Uranus. If well aspected to the rest of the chart, it can be an
extremely creative aspect.
Black Moon - Lilith and Uranus have a number of features in common:
taste for independence, dislike of routines and anything which can
perceived as enslaving constraints, affinity with original things,
and a rebel - if not rebellious - nature. (In Kabbalistic mythology,
Lilith was Adam's first wife. She rebelled and left him because she
did not want to be subjected to his control.)
On the lower mode, this aspect can enhance the potential
restlessness associated with Uranus and make it difficult for the
native to stick to long term enterprises or follow any kind of
discipline.
On the higher mode, the sharpness and originality of Black Moon will
reinforce the imagination and creativity of Uranus.
On an even higher mode, the metaphysical depth of the Black Moon
combines with Uranus in the chart of great visionaries such as Sri
Aurobindo (Mars, Uranus, Black Moon conjunct in the 12th), or Edgar
Cayce (opposition). Think also of the depth of vision of people such
as John Kennedy (opposition), or Steven Spielberg (opposition).

On the lower mode, this aspect can enhance the potential
restlessness associated with Uranus and make it difficult for the
native to stick to long term enterprises or follow any kind of
discipline.
On the higher mode, the sharpness and originality of Black Moon will
reinforce the imagination and creativity of Uranus.
On an even higher mode, the metaphysical depth of the Black Moon
combines with Uranus in the chart of great visionaries such as Sri
Aurobindo (Mars, Uranus, Black Moon conjunct in the 12th), or Edgar
Cayce (opposition). Think also of the depth of vision of people such
as John Kennedy (opposition), or Steven Spielberg (opposition).
Uranus-Black Moon trine:
The Black Moon reinforces the independent and original nature of
Uranus. If well aspected to the rest of the chart, it can be an
extremely creative aspect.
Black Moon - Lilith and Uranus have a number of features in common:
taste for independence, dislike of routines and anything which can
perceived as enslaving constraints, affinity with original things,
and a rebel - if not rebellious - nature. (In Kabbalistic mythology,
Lilith was Adam's first wife. She rebelled and left him because she
did not want to be subjected to his control.)

Neptune-Black Moon conjunction, opposition, trine, square, sextile;
An aspect which can strongly reinforce the mystical nature of
Neptune, and add metaphysical dimension to its inspiration. The
combination can be highly prophetic.
But with Neptune, things always run the risks of remaining blurry -
especially knowing that Black Moon relates to the depths of the
unconscious. It is only when someone has done the inner work which
allows them to realise the spiritual potential of Neptune that the
support of this aspect to Black Moon can be experienced.
If fully developed, this aspect can take cosmic proportions. Think
for instance of the immense vision of Rudolf Steiner (conjunction
Mercury - Black Moon - Neptune in the 5th house), or other famous
teachers who had a Black Moon - Neptune opposition, such as Max
Heindel or Paramahansa Yogananda.
The more Neptune is aspected to other planets in the chart, the more
this aspect will be significant, adding a Black Moon touch to the
personality: sharpness, inner depth and need for perfection (which
combines with Neptune's idealism).
26
Pluto-Black Moon conjunction, opposition;
An aspect which can strongly reinforce the occult nature of Pluto,
giving tremendous insight into the hidden mysteries of life and
sharp astral energy in plenty.
On the lower mode: rich, complex and tenacious sexual fantasies or
on the contrary, fear of sexuality.
On the higher mode, the need for purity, perfection and absolute can
be extreme.
There is also an immense potential of energy available to realise
one's goals, but one needs to be able to go deep inside oneself to
contact it and tap from it.
In the conjunction and the opposition, the meeting of Hades and
Lilith can make great esotericists, magicians - but also
necromancers. Think of people such as Yogananda (Black Moon - Pluto
opposition), Gurdjieff (trine), Ramdass (trine), Samuel Sagan
(opposition), Rajnesh (square in the birth chart, opposed in the
chart of death). But think also of Adolf Hitler (very significant
conjunction in the 8th house), or Aleister Crowley (opposition).
And, last but not least - Shirley MacLaine (in the midheaven).

Nth Node-Black Moon conjunction, opposition:
27
Sth Node-Black Moon opposition. Conjunction;
Black Moon - Lilith aspected to the axis of the Dragon (Nodes).
Carefully watch for the returns of Black Moon (transiting Black Moon
conjunct natal Black Moon) . These are times where profound life
changes can take place, and when extreme inner clarity will be
needed, so as to make choices which take you in a positive
direction, rather than letting yourself be swayed by inner emotional
waves.
Notice also that the Nodes revolve in 18 years. Meaning that every
nine years or so, one of the transiting Nodes becomes conjunct to
one of the natal Nodes. Nine years is also the time it takes for
Black Moon to operate a revolution. Hence combined returns of Black
Moon and the Nodes, which can have a major impact in the life of the
person. During these periods, there is a potential for great
transformation (which are never completely easy), and for taking new
life directions.
These times of transits are precious opportunities which must not be
wasted.
Nth Node-Black Moon trine:
Sth Node-Black Moon sextile:
Black Moon - Lilith aspected to the axis of the Dragon (Nodes).
Not a very powerful aspect, except when it is tight.
An invitation to go inside and explore the depth of your psyche so
as to find a meaningful direction in life.

Black Moon-Ascendant conjunction, opposition, trine, square, sextile:
This position is found in people who have a major affinity with
Black Moon - Lilith, the archetype of the rebel - the woman who was
created at the same time as Adam (not after him like Eve), and who
refused to be subjected to his authority.
This aspect to the Black Moon is a factor of depth, and as such it
28
influences the whole astrological chart.
The symbolism is one of great independence of mind, originality, and
creativity. There is a profound dislike for the limitations imposed
by patriarchal establishment, and for situations which are perceived
as limiting personal freedom.
Despite great inner strength, people who have an affinity with the
Black Moon are often extremely sensitive. This is because they are
in touch with deep values inside themselves and other people (the
more people are connected to the depth of themselves, the less they
are likely to be insensitive).
The Black Moon also brings a taste for perfection and absolute.
On the higher mode, this aspect indicates psychic abilities, and the
capacity to perceive the hidden side of things.
Black Moon-Midheaven conjunction, opposition, trine, square, sextile:
The symbolism of the Black Moon is associated with Lilith, who,
according to the Kabbalistic tradition, showed qualities of extreme
independence. As she hated to be subjected to Adam's authority, she
left him to lead her own life - not a common thing to do in biblical
times!
The import of this aspect is to be understood in the line of
Lilith's myth. The qualities of independence can be extremely
beneficial on the professional level, bringing a sense of direction
and goals. (If the person lacks a sense of direction, then it is
likely that they need to be more in touch with the values associated
with the Black Moon.)
But, if you are not cautious, the rebel nature of Lilith could work
against you at times. The Black Moon is not particularly diplomatic!
You may well find yourself involved in some heated disagreements
with your boss or colleagues which may have detrimental effects on
your promotions!
People with a strong Black Moon often prefer to be self employed.
