The Astrology of the Erotic
It was said in Greek myth that Eros was the child of old night and chaos who then out of passion formed the whole world.
This child too of Venus and Mars according to others could create arrows to influence hearts across both space and time An old Jewish legend talks of the first partner of Adam who was cast out because she wanted to be on top when they made love. It's no wonder tgat Augustine of Hippo created rhe myth of original sin that was passed on by sexual Union. The Eden story was an obscure story bent and twisted to denigrate and devalue sexuality in all its richness.
Lilith by wanting equality was named demon when all she wanted was desire. Jungs concepts of anima and animus gives us all clearly the insight of the rich tapestry of gender, sexuality and biological sex. The cycle of the moon with its twenty eight days of waxing and waning gives a delicious tinge of sexuality to our sense of being. Let us celebrate Lilith and liberate Eve from patriarchy. 'The erotic is always the measure of the beginnings of our sense of self and the chaos of our strongest feelings'.....Audre Lorde...I feel the new Moon of the weekend throb in the darkness...
