Lilith stomps into your life to charge up your personal power.

Who is it that you still allow to alter your self perceptions or beliefs? Do you consciously attempt to benefit and nourish the lives of those around you, or have you fallen back into fearful, manipulating behaviors to achieve your aims. Are you beating to the rhythm of another's drum, or have your requests become demands? Could you be failing to voice your own opinions and ideas, instead choosing to go along with the flock?

Lilith bids you to take back your personal power by releasing all mental and physical dependencies. She reminds you that you are only spiritually healthy to the degree that you can forgive, and it is fundamentally blame that robs you of your personal power.

The Goddess says you will be magnetized when you march to the beat of your own unique drum and allow others to march to theirs. The way to wholeness for you now lies in connecting to, and accepting, how powerful you really are.

Suggested Ritual

Go to a quiet, warm place where you will not be disturbed for about 30-90 minutes. You will need a pen and paper.

Sitting with your spine erect take twenty deep calming breaths. Close your eyes and mentally scan your body from the toes to head. Breath into any tensions, tightness or pain until completely relaxed.

When you are ready take up the pen and paper to answer the Goddesses questions in turn, as truthfully and in as much detail as you can ...

• "Whom have you pitied, or who has pitied you as a Victim, to diminish your personal power?"
• "Whom have you humiliated, and been humiliated by, to rob your personal power?"
• "Whom have you ignored in dominating silence or merciless banter, and whom may have ignored you in this manner?"
• "Whom have you lorded over with martyrdom and guilt tricks, and who has depleted your energy in the same way?"
• "Who has charmed you with sex, money and favors to gain their needs and desires, and where have you done the same?"
• "Whom have you judged unfairly, sent condemning thoughts to, or entertained malicious gossip about, to remove your power? Whom has done these thing to you?"
• "Who's problems have you seen fit to offer unsolicited advice, and who has needed to "rescue" you?"
• "Whom have you dominated with your self importance and who has choked you with their displays of superiority?"

When you are complete, close your eyes again and feel yourself being cleansed by beams of magnificent White Light, and send the Light to any person that may require your forgiveness, or you theirs.

About The Goddess

Lilith The Strong, the goddess who holds the power to create life out of death, figures prominently in many mythologies of the ancient world. Lilith symbolizes the inert powers of all women over men. Her origin lies in a Babylonian (or Assyrian) myth, but references can also be found in later myths. Her name means "she of the night".

In Hebrew folklore, Lilith was lustfully depicted as a female demon of great beauty with long, streaming hair. She was considered the enemy of young children and worked mischief in the night. She is said to have mated with Adam before Eve, but some say she seduced him. Lilith refused to be subordinate to Adam and lie beneath him and was replaced by the more compliant Eve.

Lilith is the Moon Goddess and a patroness to witches.
