You’ve probably heard of Lilith, Adam’s mythical first wife. He wanted Lilith to be subservient to him but she was having none of that. Well, Lilith plays a role in astrology, too, representing our repressed wild side.
When Lilith is in Taurus, she highlights the areas of life where you feel most stubborn and uncompromising. She can lead to power struggles in the houses she touches, but also help you embrace the darker aspects of yourself.

There can be a desire for material comfort and pleasures even within your search for meaning and wisdom. Taming this shadow aspect involves finding balance between the physical and the spiritual.
Your rebellious nature may express itself through rejecting or challenging conventional wisdom, dogma, and tradition. You seek your own truth based on what feels right to you, not just what you’re told. This individual path can bring insight but also isolation at times.
Also, your desires for stability and security may clash with the expansive and exploratory 9th house themes. You may crave familiarity and routine even as you pursue knowledge and travel.

Lilith in the tenth house of your natal chart suggests that you have a complex relationship with authority and power dynamics. With Lilith in Taurus, your sense of self-value is tied to material and financial security. You may seek stability through accumulating wealth, possessions, and professional status.

There is a shadow side to your ambitions that stems from feelings of inadequacy and a need for worldly success to prove your self-worth.
In the tenth house of career and public image, Lilith in Taurus highlights your shadow issues with authority. You likely crave professional recognition but may struggle with taking direction from others, especially if you perceive criticism as a threat to your sense of self. There can be a stubborn or possessive streak that resists sharing power, credit, or the spotlight with others.
11th House
The 11th house relates to groups, community, networking, and friendships. With Lilith in the 11th house, themes of not fitting in, feeling excluded from groups, struggling to find your tribe, and wanting a sense of belonging within a community can arise. There may be challenges around feeling valued and accepted by friends and peers.
However, Lilith in Taurus in the 11th house can also motivate you to work on developing self-worth from within, rather than seeking validation from others. Taurus energy can help you cultivate stability, value the simple pleasures in life, and embrace a more grounded sense of self-worth.
Lilith in Taurus in the 11th house can be a call to develop a stronger, inner sense of self-worth and value – one that is stable and grounded in who you truly are, rather than how others see you.
12th House
Taurus is a fixed earth sign that’s all about stability, comfort and security. The 12th house represents hidden matters, so having Lilith here can make you crave privacy for your intimate relationships and desires. You may prefer to keep certain aspects of yourself secret and hidden from public view.
Lilith in Taurus can signify unmet desires for physical comforts, beauty, luxury and tangible pleasures. The 12th house can make these needs unconscious or hidden, so you may not be fully aware of what’s missing for you on a material level.
Let’s not forget that Taurus rules relationships and physical intimacy, so Lilith here can point to difficulties with vulnerability, closeness and sexual expression. The 12th house obscures these challenges, so you may struggle to consciously identify and work through blocks around intimacy.
Embrace The Chaos
Lilith definitely keeps things interesting no matter where she goes. Her stubborn and sensual side comes out however the situation calls for it. But one thing is for sure, with Lilith around you can count on things getting a lot more exciting. When she stirs things up, see it as a chance to try new things. Lean into the changes she sets in motion and use the disruption as a way to improve yourself. My advice? Embrace the chaos she causes – that’s what makes her – HER.
