Laura Shumate - Indoor Cats

Middle Pillar Sounds is the 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!

Hello Leo Season!
The heaviness of Cancer Season’s experiences have become a thing of the past, we embrace now the new blossoming season of the Self, carrying with us nothing but wise lessons. Leo energy promises feelings of capability, confidence, courage, beauty. However the triple conjunction of Mars, Uranus and the North Node in Taurus are creating tensions with the Sun, Mercury and Saturn, leaving us all feeling like we are not in the promised land. Leo Season is here to show us that we all have that boldness if we are ready to face the fears. It is only us who can achieve this magnanimous energy by surrendering to the unknown in trust of ourselves. There are challenges ahead, this is just the reminder that you are ready to face them with grace, charisma and inner wisdom. Leos have the power to say “I will” and know they will. Tap into that abundant, creative expression that this season has to offer and get to know yourself and your goals better. Fixed Fire never doubts once a decision is made, as long as it speaks truth to their heart.

Our deep ‘explorer of the Self’ special guest for this re-birth show is our beloved Sofia, a visual artist, record collector, and scent maker based between London and Buenos Aires. Interested in psychedelic realms, esoterism, mysticism, and shamanism, she blends hypnotic and magnetic sounds to welcome a sound exploration like no other. For this show, she has harvested a blend of Indian Classical music, soothing cosmic synths, and formless sounds.

CARD OF THE MONTH: STRENGTH
Strength card is depicted by a woman with an infinity symbol over her head (enlightened), who is putting her hands inside of a Lion’s mouth. The Lion represents the animalistic part, that seems to be very aligned in trust with the woman who seems naive and risky but is in fact enlightened. This woman has no fear when it comes to calm and tame that wild side we all carry. She is a master of her mind, limiting thoughts have seemed to left her and she sees clearly that trust and Love are the energies that make anything possible. In her world, nothing is impossible.
