Description

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. Schedule a consultation with Cory, or a discounted student consultation by emailing us at the above email address. Read Cory's monthly horoscopes on www.chronogram.com.

This last episode of the year is all about time: doing time, being a slave to the clock, jumping timelines, time travel, decolonizing time, being a “time millionaire”, liberating ourselves from time, maturation, death, lineage, ancestry, reclaiming time, time served, linear time, time as political tool, time warps, divine timing, and the time that transformation demands. In the first part of this episode Cory is joined by queer artist, tarotist, intuition facilitator, and organizer, shea in ...
VIRGO-PISCES ECLIPSE SPECIAL (featuring a Uranian deep dive). The month of September is host to two eclipses on the Virgo-Pisces axis. The day before the first eclipse, Uranus stations before going retrograde. In this episode, Cory draws the experiential parallels between eclipses and Uranus transits. Mandee Sheeler joins Cory to talk about their personal Uranus transits, and reflect on its recent ingress into Gemini. WARNING: in true Uranian fashion, we have some uncoordinated audio in a fe...
Reality is shaped by our tacit and explicit agreements. Our social systems, codes and organizational constructs only exist because they’re agreed upon. To a large degree, if we experience it, we’re cooperating with it. There is so much creative power, collectively and individually—interpersonally and socially, in owning our decisions about what we agree to. But, deciding well means understanding how we contribute to the narratives of morality and logic. Narratives don’t exist in a solid state...
In today’s episode Cory delivers a short forecast for February; a squishy, sensitive, and romantic month filled with feeling, but shot through with dazzling moments of Aquarian clarity. She follows that with a segment on understanding the sign of Pisces. Other topics covered include: Emotional bias in a world that thinks it’s objective The chasms and bridges between imagination and reality Nationality, belonging, and safety Pisces and Aries as expressed through the novel and film, Fight Club ...
January 2025 + Capricorn Deep Dive | Myths of Structure Today Cory and shea in the catskills explore the embodied experience of Capricorn, and delve into the less-talked about expressions of that zodiac sign. Especially as Saturn (planetary ruler of Capricorn) spends its last months in Pisces and comes into a landscape-shifting square with Jupiter on Christmas Eve, they consider the mystical nature of the “threshold dwellers,” of which Saturn is the ultimate. It’s said to have its joy in the ...
It’s been a long time since I’ve done an “OTC” episode! These episodes are less structured and more illustrative. I invited Anastasia Wasco, writer, editor, and psychospiritual guide to talk about her experience of the Gemini-Sagittarius axis. Not only does she have a Sagittarius stellium (including Mercury in Sadge), but she’s also a Gemini rising. She’s pretty much the embodiment of the current situation along that Gemini-Sagittarius axis this month: Mercury rx Sadge opposite Jupiter rx Gem...
In this episode Cory gives a quick and dirty breakdown of the major transits of December, with an introduction to Mars’ upcoming retrograde through Leo. For a deep and circuitous dive into Sagittarius, Mercury’s retrograde and opposition to Jupiter stay tuned for an Off The Chart episode coming shortly.

Charles Bukowski’s oft quoted “Find what you love and let it kill you,” always felt very Scorpionic to me. Especially lately, as I witness so much all-or-nothing behavior in the lives of friends, clients, and multiple groups of people. Whether its through martyrdom, power-hoarding, compulsive behavior, or ecstatic surrender, this Scorpio season is probably the most exacting Scorpio season I’ve lived through. In this episode I explore how this double-edged sword of a quote can symbolize unmatc...

October 2024

Today Cory walks us through the Gates of Hades (aka the autumnal equinox) with an October forecast, and a breakdown of the ultimate Libra solar eclipse and full moon in Aries. This solar eclipse is conjoined with the south node, Mercury, and Lilith. The asteroid Juno hangs out with this eclipse as well. That’s a lot of Libra material begging to be reckoned with. When do things like diplomacy, the rules of engagement, decorum, and codes of conduct do more to maintain inequities than to resolve...
In today’s episode, Cory and shea in the catskills do a deep dive into the sign of Virgo and talk about their latest offering, Getting Through it Together, an astrology and tarot container designed to help everyone work creatively with the intense astrology of the upcoming eclipses and the sociopolitical pressure-cooker we’re in. *Also, I have some Mercury Rx corrections for the beginning of the show. I was speaking off-the-cuff about some dates w/o notes and am still disoriented after ...
LEO SEASON PART 2: THE CENTER CANNOT HOLD I love love love this conversation about Leo that I had with Joselia Hughes. It might be my favorite conversation that I’ve had about Leo so far, because we talk about what is NOT visible with this sign. Of all the people I work with, people with strong Leo signatures are the ones who consistently report that they don’t resonate with the pop-astrology significations of the sign. Astrology is a complex story-telling apparatus. If we approach it with a ...
LEO SEASON PART 1: Royal Reversals and A Meaningful Conversation with Possibility You are getting your Leo season content in 2 parts this season. In this episode Cory delivers the August 2024 forecast and shares a treatise on Mercury retrograde which is prominent in the astrology of August. Yes, things are busting loose and feel out of control...because they are. Chaos is a natural phase in the process of change. Real change does not arrive in neatly manageable packages that make everyone c...
Cancer Season (embarking on Leo season): From Safe Spaces to Brave Spaces Today’s episode begins with an embodied conversation about the sign of Cancer with Marléne Ramirez-Cancio, artistic director of Brooklyn Arts Exchange, tarot practitioner, process doula, and arts educator and activist on many fronts. In the second segment of today’s show, Cory takes us through the major (and explosive) transits of Cancer season, as well as sharing a sneak-peek of the entire month of July. That s...
Gemini Season (featuring Jupiter in Gemini) Fragmentation, Synthesis, Narratives, and So Much Information. In this episode of The Cosmic Dispatch Cory Nakasue is joined by Camille Michelle Gray, Mandee Sheeler, and shea in the catskills to slice, dice, and reconfigure the many working parts of Gemini season. Topics discussed: The interplay of narrative, truth, fact, and information. Faith and the questions that upend it. Thought-energizers and thought-stoppers. Rehashing dominant narratives, ...
Taurus Season 2024 featuring The Jupiter-Uranus Conjunction Breaking Free and Liberating Power In this episode of The Cosmic Dispatch Cory Nakasue and Nate Speare cover the major transits of Taurus season. They give special treatment to one of the biggest transits of 2024, the Jupiter-Uranus conjunction. Disruptive change, rebellion, and power to masses are discussed at length, as well as experiential reflections on the sign of Taurus. In the second part of the show, Nate and Cory discuss Nat...
In today’s episode Cory is joined by astrologer Camille Michelle Gray to tease out the many facets of this eclipse season, which happens to define this year’s Aries season. They discuss the relationship between the naked desire of Aries and the intellectual accoutrements of Libra, how we develop our sense of worth and agency, and all the ways we might manipulate the feedback we receive in our relationships. This eclipse season is heavily toned by planets in Pisces, and the eclipses themselves...
Pisces Season 2024: Personalizing the Co-Presence of Saturn and Neptune in Pisces Some alternative titles for this episode included: “The Wisdom in the Suck,” “You’re Over it Because it’s Over,” and “Reality and Illusion: Two Great Tastes That Taste Great Together.” All joking aside, this Pisces season is a murky, heavy wall of fog, with the crackling energy of disruption trying to break through. Today, Cory is joined by astrologers Mandee Sheeler and Jillian Sweeney to talk about the ways th...
Aquarius Season 2024, featuring Pluto in Aquarius: Outsider Culture, The Interconnected/Fragmented Mind, Relationship Anarchy ...and more. Hey Everybody, I’m excited to share this incredibly Aquarian conversation I had with Anastasia Wasko earlier this month. I felt that I had to put SOMETHING together for this milestone Aquarius season, and I think we found ways in, out, around, and through all of the exciting transits of the next four weeks. We talked outsider culture, marginalization, dece...
This impromptu, casual discussion is an attempt to encapsulate the many features of the dramatic eclipses of October. No script, no notes, no plan. Just two people pulling at the many threads of the Aries-Libra and Taurus-Scorpio axes. Cory and Mandee are officially taking a break from regularly scheduled programming but wanted to touch base regarding this month’s extraordinary astrology. Topics include: Solar eclipse Libra, October 14 (south node Libra, Mars in Libra, opposite north node Ari...
