In love
You tend to need a lot of freedom and a partner who won't try to pin you down. A cage, however lovely, tends to get an honest review from you and then an empty room.
At work
You do your best with work that lets you question the official line. Teaching, writing and travel tend to suit you, as long as nobody tells you what to say.
What to watch
You can leave when things get close and call it freedom. It's worth asking whether you are going toward something or only leaving.
Black Moon Lilith is a point, not a body: the far end of the Moon's orbit. It stays in a sign for about nine months. From the mean lunar apogee, shown as Mean Lilith in other software. How we calculate the sky.
With friends and family
With friends and family, Lilith in Sagittarius is read as the one who questioned the family's beliefs and went their own way. You may still be the relative with the unusual views or the far-off address. Friends who argue about big ideas with you, and travel with you, tend to become your truest people.
Making decisions
When deciding, this placement is read as a refusal to follow a rule you don't believe in. That keeps you honest and free. The risk is jumping at the most adventurous option to prove you can't be pinned down. Ask whether the choice serves your own beliefs or only your wish to escape.
What Lilith in Sagittarius gives you
The gift of Lilith in Sagittarius is a free, searching mind. You can question what others accept, teach from your own experience and live by beliefs you have tested yourself. Once you stop needing to rebel against every rule, that freedom tends to inspire people around you to think for themselves.
When Lilith is in Sagittarius again
After 2010, Lilith starts 3 stays in Sagittarius before 2041. Astrologers read these as the stretches when its themes are in the air for everyone, and most of all for people born with it here.
