Spiritual, conscious, and creative hub supported by listening journeys designed to assist astrological and metaphysical, personal and collective energetic processes. The project was born in London in 2019 from the idea of that ‘sweet spot’, the Middle Pillar according to the Hermetic Principle of Polarity. That centered space to feel aligned with Oneness and our unique experience as humans. Music is the healing force, and how we experience it is the healing alchemy. We mix tarot and astrology to set the tone for each show. We humbly welcome you to this safe space of sound exploration. Enjoy!

Cancer season arrives as a gentle tide, softening edges and deepening our roots. With Jupiter now exalted in Cancer, a once-in-a-twelve-year return, the energy of expansion flows through our homes, hearts, and caretaking instincts. We’re invited to open to emotional abundance, healing old wounds, reinforcing family bonds, and leaning into the comfort of belonging.

The Sun’s light in Cancer aligns with Mars in Virgo in a supportive sextile, lending clarity to our feelings and practical purpose to our care . At the same time, the Jupiter–Saturn square challenges us to balance expansion with accountability, reminding us that growth thrives on structure and emotional awareness. We sense an invitation to nurture with intentionality, to act from a place of grounded compassion and affective responsibility.

This season is a convergence of deep feeling and gentle momentum, our intuitive intelligence awakens, our bonds strengthen, our sense of home becomes an anchor. In this time of collective emotional blossoming, we’re called to tend our inner garden, harvest wisdom from the past, and embrace the care that sustains us into what’s next.

Our resident DJ Juli (Rising, Moon, Jupiter and Chiron in Cancer) invited another crab in disguised for this season’s mix: our beloved Mark Kassabian. They kickstarted this mix last year in Berlin, by psychic telepathy (the crab powers) both feeling the Cancer vibes in songs that curated their time together during that summer, and saving them since then.

“I dedicate this one to my sister, a Cancer queen that is taking a quantum leap towards her future, couldn’t be more proud of you, to my mom that is my main Cancer character since day 0 for me, to my cosmic wife and co-founder of Middle Pillar Sounds, Mika the yin to my yang (Capricorn to my Cancer), to my partner in life Richard who I miss terribly and makes me feel the crab inside of me like never before, and to the family spread out there around the globe, you know who you are, miss you all very much, I wish I could cry with all of you… melancolica total.” – Juli.

“Cancer season is like memory rain, soft and warm and full of ache. It pours over everything I’ve tucked away, and suddenly the old feelings bloom like they never left. With Mercury in Cancer, words don’t come easy, not because they’re missing, but because they’re swimming, underwater, emotional, tidal. I speak in gestures, in glances, in playlists. I think in scent trails and childhood echoes. Venus in Cancer wraps love in safety, nurturing, delicate, sacred. I don’t fall in love; I remember love, and when I give it, it’s the kind that feeds, holds, keeps.

This mix Julieta and I made lives in that space. It sounds like whispering under a blanket fort, like calling your best friend to say you’re not okay, and knowing you don’t have to explain. It’s for all the quiet moments that feel louder than fireworks. Cancer season slows everything down so you can feel it again, feel who you were, who you’re becoming, who still lingers in the corner of your ribcage. My Cancer Mercury and Venus don’t just live here; they are this season. Soft shell, deep ocean, everything personal, everything precious.” – Mark.
