Mars – Lilith Sextile – Full Sail Ahead

If the Black Moon, or Lilith, is in a positive aspect, it works constructively for conscious and intellectually developed people, and even gives simpler people a great deal of energy — though they may spend it on the wrong things. The sextile itself does not lead a person to success; it helps them be in the right place and creates a fortunate set of circumstances, but the person must act on their own. This is especially true when the second participant in the aspect is Mars.

Fearlessness, initiative, vivid reactions, and the uninhibited behavior of a leader distinguish the chart holder when the positions are strong. These qualities help the person stay on top in any situation, or they activate during stressful events. However, it can also happen that a person with weak Lilith and Mars is afraid to take a step forward and drags out a gray existence, although they could have reached the stars.

Advantages and Weaknesses of the Lilith – Mars Sextile

This aspect gives the native extraordinary self-confidence bordering on bravado. If they like doing something or being involved in something, they will not think about how others perceive it. Their personal attraction is the measure of everything. Even if they are drawn to strange and dangerous things, it is useless to persuade them to give them up. This is where the selfish energy of the Black Moon and the Martian admiration of oneself in danger manifest.

In the positive version, the person performs heroic deeds on this wave; in the negative version, they get into trouble because they want to play the hero. The result depends on their personal intelligence, experience, and wisdom. If these are absent, this is the kind of person who rushes at the enemy first, straight into the bullets, waving a saber. The outcome of such reckless behavior is obvious, unless a miracle happens.

The Mars – Lilith sextile makes the native very ambitious. However, if the Black Moon is weak and Mars is afflicted by hard aspects or placed in Cancer or Libra, then a healthy desire for success may be tabooed by childhood complexes. For example, in childhood the person may have been taught to be modest, not to think about what they wanted, but simply to fulfill their duties — or worse, they may have been scolded and punished for personal desires. This is a very dangerous state, when the person desperately wants to obtain what they desire, but inner complexes do not allow them to do so. The native is literally torn apart by primitive Martian energy tied to the deep subconscious of the Black Moon, and it is precisely in this state that they may commit a crime with good intentions.

A strong position encourages the person to be proud of their frankness, independence, and vanity. Women with the Mars – Lilith sextile may approach a man they find interesting themselves and suggest getting acquainted; they may also be the first to confess love.

Positive Influence of the Lilith – Mars Sextile

The main thing that distinguishes the native from others is an invincible will to win and the ability not to give up, not to lose heart, and not to surrender in the face of trouble and enemies.

True, sometimes the person does not even suspect this quality until they find themselves in a difficult situation. It is mistaken to believe that because the sextile symbolizes luck and fortunate opportunity, they will simply pour down from a cornucopia. Mars resembles a stern coach. If the native does not strengthen it through sports, courageous actions, and leaving the comfort zone, then the need for this will arise through circumstances. That is when the native with this aspect discovers how resilient they are, how strongly they believe everything will work out, and how ready they are to act until the final victory.

With strong Mars and Lilith positions, the person usually sets ambitious goals on their own and receives a somewhat masochistic pleasure in the process of achieving them. This is an aspect of athletes who tirelessly build muscle and raise the bar in their desire to set a record. Whatever the native does, they are driven by competitive excitement: to outpace and surpass opponents.

This is also an aspect of entrepreneurs with unique business qualities. They develop their business from scratch, and they solve emerging problems in highly unconventional ways. This is why it is easier for them to work alone. Stress only stimulates their creativity and gives the necessary spark to activate their inner resources.

How to Activate the Lilith – Mars Sextile

The special feature of this aspect is that it does not work all the time, but only under conditions of competition and a strong desire to achieve an important goal, or when the native deliberately activates it through sports and actions aimed at satisfying ambition. If the Black Moon and Mars are in weak positions, it is generally difficult for the native to take concrete steps. Competition with someone they know can spur them on: seeing that person’s success, they will certainly want to repeat it or do even better.

The Lilith – Mars sextile is wonderfully activated by envy. The person wants what someone else already has so strongly that they forget their fears and begin working on themselves; and if both participants in the aspect are strong, they do not hesitate for a second, literally smashing through walls with their forehead. If their strength runs out, they can imagine that everything happening is an adventure in which they are the main hero, and then inspiration will give them energy. The second most important trigger is freedom. For the sake of gaining it, the native is ready to work day and night.

The main task of the Mars – Lilith sextile is to free oneself from everything that holds the person back from action, not to be afraid of making decisions, and to take the initiative.  ✓
