Mary Colley passed away from cancer yesterday. She was born on October 14, 1952. She was near turning 58.

She has has been an inspiration to me. She set up Developmental Adult Neuro-Diversity Asssociation (DANDA) which Developmental Neurodiversity Association (DNA) is based on. Therefore, DNA would not exist if it wasn't for DANDA and Mary Colley. She will be sorely missed and her dream to make the world a better place for neurodivergents will live on.
I first met her back in 2003 in the Dyspraxia yahoo group. That's when I first learned about the terms, "neurodivergent", "neurodiverse", and "neurodiversity". 2003 was the year of self discovery and finding the missing pieces of the puzzle.

She once told me back then that maybe I could start a DANDA here in USA.

I want to honor her memory by making DNA the best that it can be and to further her dreams to make neurodiversity widely accepted in our world.
My fellow neurodivergent/Dyspraxic Warren Fried, founder and executive director of Dyspraxia, and I will be joining forces to help Mary's dream a reality.
Mary was a dear friend and mentor to him.

Currently there are 796 members in DNA in less than 4 months.

These were the following transits that I am having in Right Ascension,and they seem fit with what's going on.

RIGHT ASCENSION TRANSITS

Transiting Saturn in 7'08 Libra
conjunct natal transneptunian dwarf planet Pluto in 7'10 Libra
trine Midheaven in 9'40 Gemini

Transiting transneptunian dwarf planet Pluto in 2'57 Capricorn
trine natal transneptunian dwarf planet candidate Sedna in 3'46 Taurus R
sextile natal Sun in 3'02 Scorpio
quincunx Saturn in 3'36 Gemini R
(Yod of Natal Saturn quincunx the sextile of transiting Pluto and natal Sun)

Transiting Mars in 3'34 Scorpio
conjunct natal Sun in 3'02 Scorpio
oppose natal transneptunian dwarf planet candidate Sedna in 3'46 Taurus R
trine natal Moon in 4'24 Pisces
quincunx Saturn in 3'36 Gemini

Transiting Lunar Nodes in 8'47 Capricorn/Cancer
square Chiron in 8'49 Aries R

What are Right Ascension transits like for you?

if you want to calculate Right Ascension (Equatorial Longitude), check the box, Show RA (as zodiacal).

Right ascension charts

There are 2 main systems of coordinates on the celestial sphere. One is based on the ecliptic, the other one is based on the celestial equator. One can therefore conceive 2 ways of drawing charts:

* The usual way is based on the ecliptic – not right ascension. As we saw when discussing celestial longitude and latitude, a 'normal' astrological chart is a graphic representation of planetary longitudes. The zodiac band which has the ecliptic as its middle) is drawn, and the planets are placed on it according to their longitude.
* In a right ascension chart, instead of using the zodiac/ecliptic, one uses the celestial equator. This is why on a right ascension chart, you will not see any zodiacal signs, just 12 sections which represent 12 divisions of the celestial equator. Along this circle, the planets are placed according to their right ascension.

To get a listing of right ascensions and declinations in Clairvision Virtual Astrologer, click on 'View', 'Listing', then 'Detailed'. You will notice that right ascensions are not expressed in degrees, but in hour angles.
Right ascension charts – what they mean

How does the meaning of a right ascension chart differ from a normal chart?

To answer this question, some say that the celestial equator is a more 'earthy' reference than the ecliptic. This makes sense, for the celestial equator is the projection of the earth's equator on the celestial sphere, while the ecliptic is the path of the Sun.

Consequently, they regard the right ascension chart as an indication of how a person manifests the potentialities of their 'normal' (longitude-based) chart into their life. From this perspective, the 'normal' chart shows potentialities; the right ascension chart shows how these potentialities are likely to manifest in real life. Hence the motto: right ascension chart – manifestation chart.

For instance, if an aspect or a cluster of planets is really critical in a person's chart, you may want to look at their right ascension chart to see if the aspect is also present, and if it is any different.

In astrological readings, it is not rare to see people who are not like their chart! For instance, one sees charts with beautiful potentialities which are not translated into the reality of the person's life. The right ascension chart may give clues as to why and how, and also clues as to how to manifest what is in the chart.

From these indications, you may also deduct that the right ascension charts of solar returns may be quite interesting, since when doing predictions you are precisely trying to determine how influences will manifest in real life.

Transiting Orcus is in 2'13 Virgo in my 12th in opposition to my Moon in 3'11 Pisces in 6th.

Orcus is a transneptunian dwarf planet candidate named after the Etruscan God Ruler of the Underworld. It's a plutino,and so it has 2:3 orbital resonance with Neptune.

Orcus is associated with oaths,promises as well as of course transformation,death

as a transneptunian, it's an evolutionary intensified object.

Transiting Pluto in 2'48 Capricorn is sextiling my Moon right now

so Transiting Orcus and transiting Pluto are in a trine right now,and it's forming a wedge configuration with my Moon

I am wondering what other emotional experiences will happen during this transit

on the positive, it can be great for transformation and overall evolutionary soul growth
