True Black Moon Lilith conjoins Venus retrograde in Leo at 2:41pm, then trines Chiron retrograde in Aries 4:05pm PDT.

Venus is newly emerged from yesterday’s cazimi, purified, but now debilitated by the rays of the Sun that blessed her then, so now Lilith’s void and shadow might well be a balm for Venus’ burns, a space in which to rest and process. Lilith also lends her ability to perceive deep and sometimes uncomfortable truths to Venus’ trine with Chiron that is still in effect from this morning, and with Chiron offers a willingness to hold space for each other’s pain without trying to fix each other. The ability to truly love each other with all our flaws and virtues requires radical honesty, and Lilith has that in spades.

These transits have the potential to facilitate deep healing of our rejected selves, in each other’s loving company, should we choose to make use of this aid of Spirit being offered.
