Heavenly Bodies: A Trip Through the Cosmos with David Odyessey
Embracing Lilith: The Dark Feminine Archetype
Welcome, fellow cosmic travelers! I invite you to journey with me into the wild, untamed energy of Lilith, one of astrology’s most fascinating and misunderstood figures.
We begin at the beginning, when Lilith was created and then cast out, in biblical myth, and from folklore and stories that tried to erase her as an aberration. But exile is often where power is reborn. Lilith evolved from myth into astrology, and her placement, especially Lilith in Sagittarius, is a blazing beacon of truth, rebellion, and spiritual independence.
She’s the embodiment of the dark feminine, not something to fear, but something to reclaim. She is the voice that won’t apologize, the instinct that refuses to kneel, the part of us that remembers who we were before we were told to behave.
With 2026 marking Lilith’s entrance into Sagittarius, the collective story heats up. We find her everywhere, in cultural icons, film, and music. Women who carry Lilith’s fire unapologetically include Anne Hathaway, Tina Turner, Zoë Kravitz, and Jennifer Connelly, and others. Lilith shows up again and again as rejection transformed into radiance, like the X-Men’s Madelyne Pryor.
This episode isn’t just about astrology—it’s about reclamation. About finding where you were silenced, where you were labeled “too much,” and realizing that was never a flaw. It was the point. You may begin to recognize Lilith in your own chart, your own story, and your own becoming.
So take a breath, look up at the sky, and let’s begin.
