Lilith’s Creative Side

In most of our Mythological stories the archetypes represent aspects of individual personality. The archetypal stories present meaningful visualisations which help to understand functions of the psyche. In modern astrology each planet or star reflects both positive and negative meanings in the natal chart. Black Moon Lilith also has a creative side.

God created Lilith for a reason?

In the mythology of “creation” perhaps Adam and Eve and Lilith are elements in our individual psyche and represent the ongoing nature of Creation of life itself? In a simplified manner Adam and Eve represent the masculine and feminine aspects of personality where Lilith seems to represent a dysfunctional form of the psyche. According to mythology and in Lilith’s case there seems to be a religious or judgemental process where her banishment from Eden may be a necessary function for “creation” to have taken place at all. Lilith “is” involved and whether banished or not there are good reasons for this.

Life isnt all roses and nice gardens it seems and the mythology of Lilith can represent a way of dealing with the more difficult aspects of personality. The interesting part about Lilith reverberating from the archetypal “Creation” to our individual psyche  is that Lilith emerges in creative ways for the sheer purpose of survival.

Lilith exercises her creative and fundamental side to get through situations which our normal feminine and masculine sides cannot.

Admittedly some measures of psychological survival result in ongoing dysfunctional thinking or behaviours however in times of need Black Moon Lilith emerges to take control because no one else is.

Lilith in psychology might easily be described as the repressed or “split off” element in the psyche however in my view, Lilith is a creative conduit aligned in the darker reflections of ones instincts and the unconscious or rejected part of personality. Black Moon Lilith in the astrology chart represents the manager and mouthpiece of our darkest stories. She works in creative and instinctive ways – not to bring balance to emotional structures however for survival purposes only.

Wyatt Earp

There is a good tv show about Wyatt Earp on tonight, that is if you dont wish to watch the re runs of Crocodile Dundee. Perhaps both Wyatt Earp and Crocodile Dundee have some interesting points in common?

Except that Wyatt Earp is in the history books of the Wild Wild West. Here is an out take about Wyatt and the Ok Coral shoot out in Tombstone.

The gunfight at the OK Corral was the classic Western shootout. It eventually turned one man into a great American hero and a symbol of the nation. His name was Wyatt Earp. But after the smoke cleared on that fateful day in Tombstone in the autumn of 1881 with Tom McLaury, his brother Frank and Billy Clanton lying dead in the dusty street, Wyatt Earp wasn’t seen as a hero but a villain.

The legendary lawman was arrested and put on trial for murder. And the prosecution were so sure of victory that they pushed for the ultimate penalty – death. The resulting court case was one of the most dramatic in American history and its outcome helped shape the nation.

The most famous of a new breed of lawmen, Wyatt Earp, had himself been a notorious gunfighter. But when he came riding into Dodge City in 1876, the mayor hired him to be the peacekeeper.

The other side of the law

The gun-slinging drunken cowboys had met their match. Earp was tougher and meaner than they were. But he understood that you couldn’t end the violence, you could only keep it at bay – keep it away from the community you were trying to protect.

He was given full control and immediately created the famous “deadline” – a border into town beyond which no one could carry a gun. Anywhere outside the “deadline” it was every man for himself, anything went. (end quote)

Wyatt Earp must have had some very good values to become a Law Man. He turned his life around apparently and then tamed some of the Wild West.

Another example of Saturn oposite Uranus and changing ones script patterns in life.
