Simple Lilith Devotional Acts
Let’s look at some easy peasy things you can do in honor of a goddess that you might think is hard or scary to work with! She has been the biggest guidance in my life, and I’m so grateful for her and her unique love. I’ll share some of the things that I do, and that I recommend doing, either in her name or just to be a more Lilith-like woman!
::Stand up for yourself:: Channel your strength and courage. Making changes in your life regarding cutting out toxic people, or at least putting your foot down in situations where you are being overrun, is a huge example of something that you can do in the name of a Goddess who takes -no shit.- Use the power of the word no, and most importantly: DO NOT ACCEPT ABUSE.
::Allow yourself some vanity:: Spend time in the mirror daily reciting affirmations of body positivity daily. Wear clothing that makes you feel good about yourself. If you feel better with your hair and makeup done, then don’t feel bad about making yourself feel good. Accent your beauty in whatever way makes YOU feel sexy. Learning to accept and love your body unconditionally is the ultimate goal here, but it takes time. With acceptance comes confidence, and confidence is a very Lilith-esque trait.
::Study:: A child of Lilith is always on the path of self-improvement, so catching up on your studies is a great way to grow, and it’s a great act of devotion. Of course, occult studies are perfect, but some other cool things to verse yourself on are psychology, history, language, and art. I find that psychological studies help me find balance in my magickal practices. History is useful not only for learning mythos but also for studying up on women’s history, which is inherently important to Lilith. Being well spoken, dripping honey from your lips, is a simple way to exude the energy of the divine feminine! I’ll leave the importance of art open for interpretation.
::Start Fresh:: Lilith will be making constant changes in your life, and shedding your old skin is very important to do. I find that ritual baths and showers are very invigorating and put me into a great head space for renewing my mind. Sometimes the breakthroughs you will make are intense, and this just seems to really help me.
::Engage in some hedonism:: For our dark moon mother, we shouldn’t exactly hold ourselves back from earthly pleasures all of the time. Dance, make love, indulge in fine wine, and allow yourself a healthy dose of endorphins. Don’t turn this into an unhealthy habit, because this will go against your path of self-improvement, but when you DO go for a kick of fun, dedicate it to her. She’ll smirk, most of the time.
