Linda Goodman was born in Morgantown, West Virginia. Although Goodman never revealed her year of birth, swearing even her father to silence, it emerged posthumously that she was born in 1925. Linda was born at 1.56pm on the 10th April 1925 according to the records bureau...

Her Moon/Saturn conjunct my Pluto, IC and Sun/Moon

Totally does not make any astrological sense to me. The correct birth info is April 9th, 6:15 to 6:25 AM. Linda just will not lie about her being a triple Aries.

I agree Linda would not lie about being a triple Aries...

That`s part of the intriguing search for her correct birthdate ....

The Leo ascendant indicates a good amount of attention, there...

The Jupiter in 5th, blessings of children, which she had many, opposed by Pluto... which would make sense because a few died in infancy.

I don't want to comment on that yet, as I would like to read it said in context... that way I can give you a better answer...

Whether your sweetheart's streak of, say, stubbornness, came from the stars or childhood experiences, Mrs. Goodman was a master in elaborating how it would play out against your own tendencies as a dreamer.

Mrs. Goodman, whose original name was Mary Alice Kemery, was born in Morgantown, W. Va., on a date she gave as April 19 in a year she would never disclose.

"I once asked my grandfather, and he wouldn't tell me either," her son Michael Goodman said yesterday. During an interview a few years ago, Mrs. Goodman was more forthcoming, putting her age "between 435 and 450."

The date made her a triple Aries, and Mrs. Goodman, a five-foot-or-so dynamo fit the astrological profile to a T. "She was pushy," her son said.

A writer since childhood, Mrs. Goodman worked as an itinerant newspaper reporter, radio writer and occasional broadcaster. After reading "Letters from Linda" on a radio program, her son said, she adopted the name Linda.

It's very possible Linda was referencing her "Alias" birth chart, as she obviously wanted to hide her true birth date (very Scorpio moon, mind you )

If she was not being intentionally confusing, she could have been speaking in some spiritual terms or idea, which maybe had some sort of significance to her...

"MIchael says,
"In answer to if this is a completed manuscript, I Believe it to be completed, but seeing as how at this date I do not have a copy of said manuscript and those that do have copies of it have not to this date sent me one, I cannot say for sure. I know that my mother did extensive work on it and if i was a betting man I know that before my mother passed on she would have certainly done her very best to the complete it.

In answer to whether or not i would be revealing any of the secrets in my book, I leave my mother's works on their own as a true triple Aries would have me do, The book that I am writing is going to be more in the format of a marriage between biography and good ol downright home storytelling about my mother and our family."

then here:

"My friend Clyde came to Colorado to visit, and he had a very hard time dealing with my mothers WAYS, she was an "acquired taste" after all. But he came from a strict family so he tried to adjust as best he could.
well one day he and my mother got in a argument and I came in asking "what are you two arguing about?" Clyde said, "Michael... take me to the airport...I am out of here."

he was an extremely dangerous individual from New York, expert in Karate, and a Taurus to boot.

So we got in a car to go to the airport, at which time as he and i were in the back seat, my mother in the front passenger seat would not stop berating him with insults and generally egging him on. He became increasingly furious asking how i could possibly tolerate a woman like this all these years.

when we got to the airport, we were late as usual, which was "par for the course" for my mother. Clyde Missed his flight and At that point we had to return home to wait for the next days flight. Upon arriving at home, Clyde and I went into my room and he started yelling at me about how horrible my mother is and basically making threats that if she didn't stop talking to him that he was going to do something, Which i could only assume meant something physical.

At that point, when I truly worried about the situation's explosiveness, the triple Aries as we all know as Linda Goodman stomped into the room and said very loudly, "Clyde" I have something I want to say to you."

I held my breathe in expectations of a Aries/Taurus clash, the likes of which I have never seen. She then approached him, he tensed up and balled his fist, my mother then unexpectantly put her arms around him, hugged him tightly to her and simply and softly said these words:

"I LOVE YOU CLYDE."

At which time unbelievably Clyde then melted in her arms, hugged her back and said,

"I LOVE YOU TOO MRS. GOODMAN."

And so With tears flowing down his cheeks."

Neptune is conjunct her Leo ASC and square Moon/Saturn in the 3rd
- Mysticism, imagination, dreams and Universal love… she poured her “magical energy” into words!

The context of Linda's Triple Aries comment was made when she said a bookstore owner who proved to be better than her was a triple Capricorn. Anyway, research more about the life of people with Sun in 9th House and Saturn conjunct Mon in 3rd. Once you know the basics of ascendants, aspects and houses, make her chart from her life experiences and see how accurate it is with the two charts. That is the best way. If you get the April 10th version when you honestly analyze her life and make your chart, then that is the exact way you must proceed with Astrology.

I will also check to to see if there are more prolific writers with heavily afflicted Moon-Saturns in 3rd writing tons of tomes and best sellers, and who have not traveled abroad with Sun in 9th. How many Sun in 9ths avoid blabbering secrets? How many Suns in 9th swear close ones to keep a secret? Why should anyone take Sun in 12th description seriously if Sun in 9th behaves the same?
