Well, since it was asked of me to tell you if I did, I'm telling you: I'm leaving this forum. I'm too disappointed in a couple of different things, and I don't feel like I'm using my time and energy wisely here anymore. At the present, I am doubtful I'll be coming back. Unlike the last time, it's not about "cooling off" - I just don't see any positive reason for me to continue participating here any further and would like to pursue studying astrology in a more constructive environment for me.

And to BlueRoamer: since you're are expressing since pride in your accomplishments, I wish for you and the rest of the forum to know you are definitely part fo the problem (but not all - sorry, you're not *that* significant). I originally came to LindaLand to get away from people like you, since there's plenty on other forums and in my "real" life already. People like you make me tired, and that's how I feel coming to this forum now, knowing people like you are here too. But as the saying goes, all good things must come to an end. I heartily thank you for signaling to me that this good thing has ended, as I can move on now. Be sure to congratulate yourself, and I hope you continue to be such an edifying influence for other people.

Although we've never chatted, I'll be sorry to see you go. I appreciate the time and energy you put into your posts, especially those related to anxiety (I've been social phobic for years ~ slowly getting over it ~ and have been through anxiety attacks, depression and agoraphobia).

best wishes to you,
Angela

hi..
i can understand how you feel but please dont leave..someppl are not worth bothering bout..the best thing is to ignore them and to deal with more positive ppl.thats how we grow..giving up a forum for a j**k is not a good idea..think bout it..there are others who come here looking for ppl like you..all kinds of ppl make this world complete..find your strengths from strong ppl n ignore ppl who tire you but not by leaving..
hopefully you will reconsider your decision..

GN - I haven't communicated with you much, but I like you and am saddened to see you go.
If you peek back in on this thread, I'd be interested in knowing if you're posting in any other astrological forums - besides admiring your astro-know-how and being impressed by the depth and breadth of your knowledge of Pisces and Aqua, I think that you're pert dern cool.

Hello Gemini Nymph,

There are reputable Astrology curriculums available from professional organizations. Most are not free and can be quite expensive. Linda Goodman was an advocate for open learning in the healing arts and the occult through sources that share freely.

This website is an interpretation of her vision, and I am proud to say it is run completely by volunteers who generously share their insight and time in dialogue, and delving into the deeper mysteries of their specialty.

I am aware of the inappropriate behavior that goes on through the internet. This site is no exception. It is safe to assume that the majority of members here maintain an informal oath to treat one another with love and respect - knowing full well the site welcomes everyone who has an interest in the things Linda cared about, or to make new friends.

Linda Goodman is a very special Avatar to me. "Constructive environment" in my opinion, is subjective and to be very frank, contrary to many, many ancient teachings that encourage development of ego and the sELF.

I wish you the very best in the pursuit of your path, and that you eventually come to knOw yoursELF a lot better.

Peace,

Aphrodite

I'm sad to see you go, but you know what is good for.

One of my good friends has your astro signature, so I've always felt, I sort of *know* you.

All the best wishes whatever you are up to!

Gemini Nymph, please don't go! Your posts are so eloquent and extensive - you give such great astrological advice. I have learned so much from you.
I will hate to see you leave!

Maybe it is the fixedness in my chart... but I have tolerated a lot of people I otherwise wouldn't. In any environment, I would be shocked to see constant harmony. I appreciate the downs as well as the ups. We all have bad experiences, and I have learned more through the bad.
I am also quite astounded at times, when I have had personal conflicts with a few here and there, when they will just up and say "Well, If you want me to go... blah blah blah.." when that was the furthest thing from my mind, keeping the journey at the forefront, I enjoy defending and even opening up my brain a little ( it is good exercise) to let another viewpoint in.
You know what works for you, but if you ever want to come back to this forum, you'll be welcomed, I'd hate to burn any bridges based upon recent events, as opposed to the whole picture.
In this whole picure, there is room enough for the moderate, advanced and beginning astrologer... (and even the ones who come only to ask a question and have things handed to them.)
I admire your knowledge, and your viewpoints are always fascinating to me, even if they are totally opposite to mine. Maybe therein lies the fascination.
Your intelligence and informative posts will be missed.
Good luck and light to you on your journey.

I am sorry that someone getting their jollies here feels like your beautiful flowerbed has been trampled on... I get it. Just throw some manure on them, through kindness or frankness, and walk away, shaking your head.

BTW~ I have two close friends who are Geminis. We are sooooooo different, but that's never stopped me from loving the perspective they bring.(and them .) I am mutable enough to see a learning opportunity.

GN, it looks like BlueRoamer rarely posts here. WHy would you let someone who barely participates effect you like this?

Not only do you have some of the best astro knowledge here, but you articulate it better than anyone I know.

All that being said, I understand your need to make a change.

I'm really sorry to see you go GN. Your astrological insights and interpretations usually blow me away. I think you're a real asset to this forum and it's a shame to see you leave.

*after seeing all the love your way, no worries, if you wanna' still stay, we know you are mutable, and won't think you can't stick to a decision, just know when it is prudent to change your mind for the best the situation calls for.*

As a fellow Gemini/Pisces person, I have looked to you so often, Gemini Nymph, for wisdom, insight and knowledge with your trademark humour and honesty. I am going to miss you very much. I have a few problems with things here as well, mostly about this place's inherent and obvious "clique-ishness" between certain visitors but that is to be expected at many forums on the internet. Because you are one of the rare ones here at Lindaland with whom I felt a bond, I am even sadder to see you go.

Hugs,
KarenSD

I enjoy your insights very much.

In any event, I wish you the best.

Gemini Nymph, as I haven't been around here lately, I don't understand why you are leaving. I haven't been a member of this forum for long and I don't really know you that well. But I think you are a very nice person and I have enjoyed reading your posts and I think you add a lot of positive things to this forum. I'm sorry that I didn't get to know you better.

I missed something...what happened.

Okay GN, even though I didn't always agree with your take on astro (LOL...because that would be boring) I ALWAYS valued your insight.

I wish you would reconsider -I am not sure what happened or who hurt you, but please think about staying- we all go through this -I have been on the outs several times, it is a right of passage at times (even if it bites the big one).

In fact, I was in your place about a year ago. I felt that people were abusing astrology and this site - if you go through the threads you will see at at any given time most of us wanted to GIVE UP. I did take a break, but realized (and Aphrodite really helped me see this) that I DIDN'T have to respond to every post I saw.

If someone said something I thought was inane and not worthy of my time, I could just CHOOSE to skip it.

It is hard for us Saggies to do that....we ALWAYS want to give advice...and Gemini's are pretty similar..so please think about staying.

I agree with Pidaua. We've all had our times when we get fed up and have thought about leaving - some do. This is nothing compared to some of the nasty spats that have happened elsewhere on the boards.

Gemini Nymph, I hope you'll reconsider, but you need to do what you feel is right. You will be missed here. Peace to you on your path.
