The Cosmic Dispatch is a weekly astrological weather report about bodies: the celestial and the earth-bound. Join astrologer and body-mind therapist Cory Nakasue as she guides us through the ever-changing astrological weather and uses the tools of astrology to help us connect to our bodies and communities. At its heart, astrology is about relationships: to time, nature, and change. How can we best understand different qualities of time? How can we deepen our relationships with ourselves and others? We’ll use the week’s astrology as a jumping off point to discuss topics such as current events, health, personal development, and more! We’ll also speak with guests and listen to music that embodies the current astrology, and answer audience questions. Please email thecosmicdispatch@gmail.com to send questions to be answered on the show, and guest recommendations.

Leo's Transition to Virgo Season: Two Kinds of Passion
Today, Cory Nakasue takes through the dazzling and exacting astrology of the week. We say good-bye to a Leo season that explores one type of passion, and we welcome a Virgo season that invites a different kind of passion. Cory also dives into the archetypes of Virgo that are less talked about: the medicine/poison maker, the auto-erotic, the hermetic task-master, and the consort of god. Major transits discussed include: Venus' square to Jupiter, Mars' opposition to Neptune, the sun's entrance into Virgo, Mercury's station retrograde, and the sun's opposition to Saturn. It's a busy week!
We also hear some Leo-to-Virgo inspired songs from: the Black Keys, The Bangles, The Rolling Stones, Bananarama, Echo and the Bunnymen, Bill Withers, Faith No More, and Sinead O'Connor.
