The Lilith archetype in astrology
Defining Lilith is almost impossible from our point of view, because Lilith, the Black Moon, is related to hidden, unknown and invisible superhuman powers. We can feel it, we can hear her whisper, but we cannot define her because we don’t really know her.
In this article we see the “consequences” of having Lilith in Virgo from an everyday point of view. However, Lilith always reminds us that we cannot control her. Our job is to make her part of ourselves and allow her to act in collaboration with the rest of the parts of our being. When we do this, Lilith transforms into a true instinctive expert who perfectly uses the energies of the sign where she is and who, when necessary, does what we dare not do.

“I am a relentless perfectionist, which can lead to constant criticism and destructive self-demand.”
Lilith in Virgo
Lilith in Virgo
Wherever Lilith is in our birth chart, she describes a number of qualities that are expressed in a different way than we are used to. It seems that Lilith unleashes a wild part of our nature. In Virgo, Lilith pays attention to details and she can’t feel good until she improves what needs to be improved. The reasons for this? We need to read the entire birth chart. What we can be sure of is that there is an important part of our nature that can see details. And this comes out viscerally.
I see Lilith’s influence as essential to accessing our “genius.” However, Lilith’s energy is very intense and if we do not understand it we can fight it. Will we be able to integrate Lilith’s energy without self-destructing?
Below I will provide you with a brief description of the meaning of Lilith in Virgo.
Constructive Trends
- Attention to Detail: Lilith in Virgo can lead to a meticulous and detail-oriented approach to life. Those with this placement have the ability to notice subtleties and perfect tasks and projects.
- Healing and Care: They may have a natural talent for healing and caring for others. Lilith in Virgo can manifest as a desire to help and serve others through attention and well-being.
- Critical Analysis: They have the ability to make critical and logical analyses. This allows them to objectively evaluate situations and find effective solutions.
- Hygiene and Health: Those with Lilith in Virgo often value hygiene and health. They can be very mindful of their physical well-being and take steps to maintain a healthy lifestyle.
Conflictive Trends
- Extreme Perfectionism: They may struggle with excessive perfectionism, which leads them to constantly worry about details and feel dissatisfied with their own efforts.
- Self-Demand: Lilith in Virgo can sometimes lead to relentless self-demand. They may feel pressured to meet unattainable standards, which can result in physical and emotional exhaustion.
- Self-Criticism: They tend to be self-critical and may experience a constant inner voice that points out their flaws and mistakes.
- Health Obsession: At times, Lilith in Virgo can lead to excessive concern about health and hygiene. They can become hypersensitive to health issues and obsess over staying clean and healthy.
I already said that it is very important to read the rest of the birth chart to see more clearly the positive side of Lilith. For example, Lilith is able to show us the dark side of our Moon. When we don’t nourish ourselves as needed, Lilith becomes a constant and sharp reminder that keeps letting us know that there is something that is lacking in our lives. Therefore, learning Lilith’s language is essential to avoid confusing her howl with something devilish. Lilith is grotesque in our eyes, but in reality, she is a goddess who watches over the shadows, which is nothing more than a world unknown to us. Lilith is as much a mother as Eve, but she has other matters to attend to.
