In legend, Lilith was the first wife of Adam, but she flew away to live in the wild and rule the beasts of night when he refused to submit to her desire to take the dominant role in lovemaking. Since then she is both desired and feared as a seductress, succubus, and goddess of demons.

Lilith is a goddess of the wild, wilderness, and animals, especially lions, snakes, and owls. Her wildness makes her an enemy of patriarchal control, as much as it makes her a heroine of feminist independence. In many ways she becomes the shadow self of Eve, who also falls short of the expectations of Yahweh. Her association with the snake and sacred groves (Gilgamesh drove her into a grove of trees sacred to Ishtar/Ashera/Inanna) makes her a likely candidate for who the serpent in the Tree of Knowledge really was.

Lilith is known from Sumerian days, as early as 4000, B.C.E. as Lilitu, who is a storm and wind demon or goddess. She is much associated with night birds, the screech owl in particular, and in spite of the fact that she might otherwise appear in men’s erotic dreams as a human woman, she retains her bird-of-prey feet. Lilith is also associated with both Ishtar and Inanna, and was called the “Hand of Inanna,” a prostitute for the goddess.

My experience with the use of Lilith oil is that exotic dancers use it to be in control of their situation and to attract generous customers. It is spicy, flowery, seductive and mysterious, while at the same time controlling.

Natural Magick deity oils are made with reverence and research to be pleasing devotional blends for the gods and goddesses they are named for. I research legend and lore, and try to use oils of plants that grew in the lands where the deity originated or rules. The Natural Magick process of using planetary and elemental influences, correspondence, and high quality ingredients is especially appropriate for honoring the gods and bringing their qualities into our lives.

Anoint yourself to attune to these deities, or pour into offering bowls or aromatherapy lamps, or anoint statues or fetish objects. I love to give them to priests or priestesses who run open circles or invoke our patron gods and goddesses.

These oils are in beautiful round 1/2 ounce bottles, blended in 100% fractionated coconut oil, so with any care they should last a very long time. They are priced according to the ingredients requested by the gods."
