This CD is just under an hour long, so please create an hour to listen to this recording in undisturbed quietness.

Traveling the whole journey is a unique experience, creating a sense of completion and perspective. The journey connects us with the bigger cycles in the cosmos. And whilst we are in physical bodies, we are all creatures of cycles. Your inner world, as well as your body, will respond to this cyclical experience.

Each time you listen, different pieces of music and their character-roles will take on importance. Sometimes they may feel uncomfortable - they may be the very characters you don't like so much in yourself or in people around you! It is useful to look at why this is so.

There may be occasions when you need help in some area of your life. For example, for a project or situation requiring increased leadership listen to Mars; for sensuality Venus; for quick thinking Mercury; for a sense of adventure and expansion Jupiter, and so forth.

The music is not intended to be a literal description of each planet's meaning. Rather, at a deeper level, it conveys its essence and is a way of receiving its messages. If you would like to listen to the music on its own, this is available on a separate CD.
How to Enjoy this Amazing CD:
The word 'planet' comes from the Greek 'planetes', meaning wanderers. Just as we are wandering visitors through life, playing many costumed roles, so the personality traits allocated to the planets and stars by our ancestors, have their exits and entrances in the different environments of the Heavens.

Myths and the planetary images, express the visual aspect of the patterns that shape our lives.

Did you know that one way of viewing mythology is as the ancient counterpart of psychology? That the stories can be seen as visual images of the natural laws at work in the universe? Images and symbols from those times contain a wealth of information and power to be tapped into, and these images can be likened to the archetypes - primal patterns - which live within us.

In the myths of all cultures, the gods demanded respect from us. Otherwise, if neglected, they would play up and cause problems. In modern terms, the archetypal energies within us need recognition and healthy expression if we are to be 'in health' in our bodies and in our relationships.

Exercising these inner characters is truly as important as physical fitness classes!

Planetary language is written into our vocabulary. Its images, symbols and cliches are everywhere, e.g. the days of the week are named after the planets in various cultures, and the word, consider (from the Latin 'considero') means to observe with the stars. We all know people who are 'Mercurial', possessing a nervous, quick-silver mind (Mercury). Or people who are 'Martial' (Mars), 'Jovial' (Jove-Jupiter), or even 'Plutocratic' (Pluto). And did you know that the symbols for Mars F and Venus C (the masculine and feminine planets respectively) are used to this day as shorthand for male and female in biology and psychology?

Throughout history, zodiacal and planetary images have permeated the creative and performing arts: in literature, sacred art, in drama and dance. Their themes and mathematical proportions have also been used in music. Essentially, we are imaginative beings. Imagination is a powerful tool when directed purposefully - every cell in the body responds to it! It is when we are in touch with our creative imagination that we are most alive! Tapping into the source of it means being in touch with our moods and emotions and their light and shadow sides - the myriad characters that live within us.

Looking at your own life - which of your inner characters keep coming under the spotlight in the roles you play out in life?

Which characters keep being played out for you instead by other people in your life?

Even though we are easily distracted by outside influences and habits, our inner world of instincts and rhythms knows the roles which need strengthening and using in our lives now. 'To Touch the Face of the Stars', helps you assess those characters, to see how they are mirrored in your life, and encourages them to live more fully.





THE MOON - Our Inner Nurturer: The Moon acts as a lens or mirror, representing our self-image, which has grown out of our history and its habits. Contacting it within, increases awareness of the cycles of beginning, fullness, decrease and renewal. Its music draws us into the imaginative world beyond the five senses.

MERCURY - Our Inner Communicator: Mercury acts as a transmitter and receiver of messages. Contacting it within aids our adaptability, curiosity and learning power. Its lighthearted music is catchy and loosens us up!

VENUS - Our Inner Lover and Artiste: Our inner Venus aids us in recognising Beauty in people and in art and nature. This is our capacity to receive, to share love and to be sensual in the full meaning of that word. Its music massages us with the glow of indulgence.

JUPITER - Our Inner Explorer: In this sequence, Jupiter has been placed as a bridge between the soft Venus and the firm Mars.
Jupiter encourages us to stretch our potentials and to discover new areas. The music is in two parts - the first connects with our inner philosopher, the second enlivens our sense of adventure and expansion.

MARS - Our Inner Warrior: We often shy away from the 'red' planet within, because of its association with aggression, war and anger. When understood in a wise way, our inner Mars helps us to respect our passions and goals, to have clarity of intent, and to have courage and to progress even when we are afraid. Its music reflects the inner dignity and strength of Mars.

SATURN - Our Inner Authority: We often experience Saturn as the 'inner critic' or stern parent-figure. Let us replace those images with the firm yet patient inner teacher created by the music. It helps us to be 'real'. Its music reflects its maturity but also its wise humour, which becomes obvious when we look at how we evade our true natures and complicate our lives.

URANUS - Our Inner Maverick: Uranus represents our capacity to make changes, break habits and to breathe fresh air into things. Like an earthquake, it helps create space for new landscapes within and outside us. Its music challenges us to look at things from a new angle.

NEPTUNE - Our Inner Inspirer: Neptune represents our yearning to dissolve boundaries and to develop more empathy. It mesmerises whatever it touches, leaving us with the need for more of the intangible. Its music leads us higher and further, and leaves us feeling we really don't have limits!

PLUTO - Our Inner Transformer: Our inner Pluto, the deepest environment within us, represents the need to let our 'shadow' side speak. It is our capacity to survive our crises and to know that we can start again. Its music reflects the voyage into the unknown.

CHIRON - Our Inner Healer: Our need to heal our psychological Achilles heel. Once healed, we can be a natural healer and teacher to others in that area. Its music makes us feel safer about being vulnerable - just like children.

THE SUN - Our Inner Centre: Our capacity to shine our own light whilst giving room to let others shine too. The music reflects the strength and light of the solar rays.

THE EARTH - Our Home: The importance of recognising that this is our home where we are creators of our reality. Observed from a distance, the mystery of the cycles of day and night, of birth and death, inspire awe.
