LILITH, in Biblical mythos, was created with Adam, the first man. Because she would not submit to him, Lilith fled into the wilderness, banished from Eden. A Sumarian deity, Lilith is viewed by some scholars as originally the dark or night aspect of Inanna. The owl is Her totem, and she is often shown with wings. Lilith embodies, to me, the essence of female eros: capricious, creative, seductive, potent, fertile, and self-willed. In religious traditions that have subordinated women, Lilith was both terrifying and dangerous, and by the era of the historical Bible, Lilith had become a fearsome demon. Cast into the wilderness of our collective unconcious, Lilith the unsubmitted became the succubus, the predatory bird, the siren, the harlot. Once the blessed midwife who assisted women to birth at midnight, Lilith became the “eater of children”. The word for “whore” and “harlot” is derived from words that once meant “priestess” and “fertile” (hora, hara). In the language of culturally transforming myth, often revealed in the origins of language, no Goddess was scapegoated more than Lilith, despised as “the great whore”.

‘Forests have secrets,’ he said gently. 'It’s practically what they’re for. To hide things. To separate one world from another.’
