Thanks for making this video - after starting 4 Lilith videos I found this one which is the only one that attempts to explain how Lilith is calculated astronomically. After watching this I did some research. Apparently there is a live debate in the astrological community as to whether Lilith is the moon's apogee or the second focus point. Also, I think the second focus point could be explained better - "The orbit of the Moon around the earth is an elliptical shape rather than a perfect circle. This means that there isn’t one central point around which the Moon revolves, there are in fact two. One is inside the earth and the other - well the other is what we call Lilith. Astronomers however would call this other point the second focus. The foci are centers of gravity." Also, you can explain the true vs mean this way: "Astronomers and therefore astrologers have a hell of a time calculating the actual path of the Moon. The ellipse itself isn’t the clear straight line you see in diagrams. It’s wiggly like it was drawn with a seriously bad hangover. A combination of space factors such as the gravitational pull of the Sun tug at the Moon so that she wobbles around us. Because astronomers can’t calculate precisely where the Moon is moving next, they use complex calculations to get a general idea of her current orbit. The mean orbit simply smoothes out all the potential wiggles in the line by working everything out on average. Once this mean orbit is plotted, the Moon’s apogee (or rather Lilith) can also be calculated. True Lilith is calculated a little differently. In this case, the possible orbit is based on the moon’s current trajectory. The apogee/Lilith is calculated for that moment. In the next moment, that position may change." - by Leah Whitehorse
Hi! I did what you showed us, but I don’t see the Lilith drawn on my chart.. only the walder is shown.. on the graph at the left of chart, I see Lilith with what looks like Aquarius sign or a sign I can’t recognize… I don’t see any other Lilith..
Do we know why the input for h21 lilith (interpolated) and the selection for lilith (mean lunar apogee) give different values/placements but are supposed to be the same thing?
Is there a direct Lilith placement in the Birth Chart? Like when You generate the basic foundational chart upon birth Time or it seems like it's a fluctuating Shakti Energy that's mysterious..After listening To this I need a professional astrologer to help Me figure this out 😎
Claudia Warner there is definitely a True black moon lilith placement. If you want to chat about Lilith in a reading feel free to find my website and check out the readings I offer: www.straightwoo.com 💜
