I think Linda was just done here...I think that will happen for all of us. She's not gone really....I think she is everywhere.

Hi Everyone,

I had done a search a very long time ago and found that Linda died at 2110 hours, or 9:10PM, Oct. 21, '95 in Colorado Springs, Colorado.

This is the listing the Social Security Death Index has on their site:

GOODMAN, MARY
234-34-8007
Birth: 09 Apr 1925
Death: 21 Oct 1995

Another interesting thing I found, her Carousel Bill died on Oct. 9, '70 in Virginia. He was born on 6-19-1927 in Ohio, but I am not sure of which town.

Donna, there is a rather significant discrepancy between that birth info and the info given by the Astro Data Bank. Which do you agree with?

Of course, Linda's birth data isn't important, as she would attest to if here. She would want us to focus on what she wrote instead.

Randall, I actually believe the Social Security Administration. I have a copy of Lloyd Cope's book, "Your Stars Are Numbered" which he first wrote in 1971 at Linda's urging. This book was re-published in 1999, right before he died. There is an introduction by Linda in the first pages with a very amusing story of how he came to be her astrology teacher. Anyway, on page 25 of this book, (the one published in 1999) he lists Linda's birthday as April 9, 1925. As her teacher, he would have had her exact data. I feel very strongly that he published it because he didn't think she would have minded, since she had left the earthplane by then.

I saw the original website at the Astrologer's Memorial where they had her birthdata published as April 10. I wrote to Donna Cunningham and inquired about this discrepancy and she wrote me a lovely letter back explaining how Linda loved to throw people off with giving them the wrong information. It was right after that, they took the birth data off the site and just wrote how she loved to keep them guessing. Also, she did tell me she got that birthdate from Lois Rodden, at her AstroData Bank

But, the real and true reason I believe her date to be April 9, if you take an ephemeris and check all the clues she gives in her poetry and in Gooberz, well, the only aspects that can be made are on that date. It was very easy to come up with hers and Robert's charts just from the clues she gave in her writings. He had to be born on August 13, 1945 and she on April 9, 1925, for them to have those aspects she wrote about.

Now, here is my reasoning as to all those clues she left - - - she was smart and astute enough to know that any reasonably informed astrologer would figure out birthdata with those clues, and if they did, so be it, she probably got a kick out of it, because not only was she revealing something, she was also teaching and what better way to learn, then by doing. I believe with all my heart she knew what she was doing and this was her way of telling what she didn't like to overtly reveal, her birthdata.

So, those are my thoughts and I like to think of Linda, smiling somewhere, and feeling giddishly happy that she taught more, and better than any other atrologer ever has, because she inspired research.

You make great points, Donna. Any superlative astrologer could sleuth out Linda's data from the hints she gave, so maybe Linda just wanted us to work for it, and thus she continues to teach even now.

Linda freely stated her birthday as April 9th, but the year she kept hidden for the most part. I still feel a little queasy talking about it, though.

Although it is interesting to ponder these things that pertain to Linda's Soul's journey, I feel they truly do belong to just her. But, what if Linda would be totally amused and pleased at the effort to find it's significance? Perhaps that is why she left her little enigma behind?

Perhaps, Randall, it's the kNowing of the significance of the answer is what makes you feel queasy?

Perhaps. On one hand, I feel we should honor Linda's outward wishes to not reveal her exact birth data, but on the other, I think Donna made a good point.

I can picture Linda smiling and giddishly happy just like Donna said.

YIVY,
Reading you post just made me realize why death exist!!! On this earth plane, the soul gets tired after so long a time. Can you imagine going through years of heartache with no resting period? Even if one's life were charmed, unless they were highly spiritual and could contact the higher realms at will, it would be very hard to go for eons without being in the spiritual realm. This is our true home anyway, I believe.
I think mabye when humanity is spiritually advanced enough to go back and fourth between the realms, then immortality will be commonplace. Thanks for your sharing your wisdom.
Chandra

Hi Randall,
I don't know where Linda is, but I definitely know I felt her presence when I went to the inn!
Take care,
Chandra

The number on the data file added up to 22.

"A good man, blinded by the folly of others, with a knapsack on his back, full of errors".- pg 258, star signs.

I think it's worth reading and puzzling over...

No, I am not afraid of dying, but I did choose immortality as I am tired of the constant rebirth and amnesia wheel.

Sure, I realize it will be a long hard struggle...and there are times I do feel like throwing in the towel. I get depressed and frustrated just as mortals do. Choosing immortality doesn't mean your life suddenly smooths out and your days are all smiles and roses. It mean hard work and great responsibility.

I have a very long way to go towards spiritual enlightenment...towards being completely tolerant of other and achieving perfect love and understand. BUT...at least I won't have to re-learn each time. I can carry what I am learning on a continuing basis. That to me is the best of being immortal.

When we reincarnate we do carry some of what we learned back with us, but so much is lost and forgotten in the birth trauma.

I choose immortality some years ago, but find lately that I seem to be living in the NOW more and more. My memory and thinking is altering. It is like there is very little 'chatter' in my head, but knowledge is there when I need it. I don't think of my younger years until something triggers it. As for the future, I really don't give it much thought unless I need to plan something out. One benefit is I tend to worry less.

My fantasies and imagination has changed also. I used to have a rich fantasy life...but now I find what I imagine or fantasy about starts to come true, so I have to be a bit more careful...I mean Mel Gibson is happy where he is. I don't want to be responsible

Seriously, it might not come true exactally as I think, but parts of it does. I feel in a century or two I might be able to actualize what I imagine completely.

Now won't that be interesting

I feel your pain, YIVY. Immortality is a tough row to hoe. Just re-MEMBER, everything is cyclical. Yes, this too shall pass...

Jesus died over 2000 years ago and we still talk about and practise his message... so why not Linda's too?

It doesn't cancel out the message just because somebody's body couldn't carry on taking the 'crap' of living a human existence in a darkened world..

I don't mind whether or not Linda comes back in the flesh or not... her messages and her essence are still fresh and strong and True. All the analyzing of birth data just gets into the realms of the head and Linda came from the heart... even when she was explaining a logical fact, she was talking from the heart...

Does it matter, guys? Essentially, what matters is that the message, and subsequently Linda, lives within each person who knew her. As with God - I am God, I am Linda, I am Lucifer, etc...

Be your own Linda... make her live on that way... find out your own mysteries and channel those through for the good of the Universe... that is all she did...

Love and light, Jools xxx

It should be our goal to ensure Linda's books are around for many, many years to come.

Hi, everyone, excuse me for just butting right in, but the whole time I was reading everyone's thoughts and speculations on who Linda might be now, I kept getting a persistant visual image of Drew Barrymore!! Don't know what it means, but I do know that Drew is a very sensitive soul who will not even kill ants. (ant murderers, inc.)

First of all: Hi to all of you!and sorry for my "terrible" English. I'd like to make you a question: why couldn't Linda care herself? If we believe her teachings about health and inmortality, and if he was as powerfull as I have always believed... that's the question I've been making myself since I Knew this magical site and I learned Linda was died! I've chose inmortality, but I'm only a "debutant" and althought I've always knew it's not gonna be a "roses garden" now I feel a bit confuse! Thanks a lot for reading me! Love for all of you since the other side of the ocean.

Sara...so glad you made it here.
WELCOME...

Linda's 'death' is a mystery to us all. I am sure she had her reasons. That is why we are here sharing what little we know.

And quit worring about your 'english'....it is very good.
