Visionary Journeys

Now in 2008 it is very exciting to be able to offer my loyal customers a special 15% discount on the new Day Spa for the Mind website. Day Spa for the Mind exclusively features the inspiring ambient soundspaces of Japetus in a comprehensive treatment program to improve your mind and expand your life. Day Spa for the Mind is a subscription-based 'Flash' website that delivers a range of treatment modules to help you develop your mind.

On this Visionary Journeys site you can still purchase CDs and CD-Rs on this site but there is no CD shipping service for Canada, Germany and Netherlands as they do not allow insurance and tracking so those countries can only use

. There is a $5 handling/shipping fee per order for orders within Australia plus an extra A$10 for overseas orders to cover tracking and insurance. My strong preference is that customers choose to download from

so for that reason CDs and shipping on this site are listed at their maximum, priced to push orders onto

.

To pay for CDs directly here you can only use PayPal. You can also send Money Orders and cheques which need to be cleared before shipping. If you are overseas you can use an international bank draft drawn on an Australian bank in Australian dollars. If all of those methods fail and you need to do a direct bank transfer you can request banking transfer details or a SWIFT code for overseas.

The idea of this official Japetus - Visionary Journeys site is that you can explore the information below and hear longer samples before going to

where you can listen to a wider range of 30 second samples, then buy and instantly download the album or track of your choice. I have now made available below longer downloads of the spoken, guided visualisation albums. You can also find other artists on the Japetus label on iTunes including the amazing Tibetan Chanting of Lama Trijam.

Make sure you tell all your friends about www.VisionaryJourneys.com or just refer them to Japetus or Visionary Journeys on

for some wonderful new products coming soon.

A) 'Music only' albums...
These are relaxing 60 minute musical journey albums.
NEW Double album music compilation
PEACE & QUIET
Peace & Quiet is a superb compilation of relaxing music tracks released by Japetus over the last 20 years. These compositions are ideal for use with any positive healing process including massage, counselling, Tai Chi, Yoga and various types of therapy. The Feature Track here is to give listeners a better opportunity to experience the feeling of the space that the music creates. Ten minutes is much better than a 60 second excerpt but obviously it works best when you own the full album and become comfortable and familiar with the whole journey. (Two full hours of music.) Long Play - Feature Track (Starlite is the '2000 Dolphin Award' winning track)

Final absorption into the One...
DEEP SPACE
An unconstrained and inspiring collage of cosmic moods that wash and flow over, around and through you as you journey to the far reaches of liquid space and time. The award winning track 'Starlite' is pure abstract... letting go... and letting go... into the oneness... the constancy of life... and feeling yourself expand and grow... coming home yet disappearing all at the same time. 'Celestial Ocean' captures the ebb and flow, the coming and the going; rising, unfolding, only to disappear again... a momentary wave amidst a sea of being... rising up from the deep waters of our soul... and disappearing into the Oneness.

The realm of souls and angels...
THE THRESHOLD
This album contains five divine musical excursions into higher angelic realms. You lift off and drift like a balloon aloft in a soft ethereal sky, floating on a choir of voices across the threshold... exploring divinity.

The ancient thought-form of the Dweller floats free on the threshold, receptive to the songs from the angels on high as they sing a message of Light. These tracks were composed for Jan Poole's Light Within series, specifically designed around her guidance and imagery which is, to some degree, still imprinted energetically in the music.

Echoing songs of worlds before...
TALES FROM ATLANTIS
From the physical animal, humanity reached out through the mysterious etheric tides of swirling emotion and delusion. Crossing the bridge of the lower concrete mind to explore the expanse of imagination and the infinity of spirit. Those from Atlantis sensed the pull of the godhead but were seduced by the distraction of the physical. Initiates in those times had control and vision not unlike those moderately advanced today. Their domed cities were connected by high energy ultrasonic transport tubes that would hum and sing as you floated between domes.

The ethereal voice of god...
INFINITY
Throughout the years there have been many sounds created by Japetus to symbolise the God/ Spirit/ Monad/ Totality. Infinity is a transcendent collage of those sounds woven into a format that is designed to be looped or repeated on the CD player. The audio floats in and out and it is difficult to pick where the beginning and the end is. Infinity can be played for many hours or days, even while other sound is present. It actually harmonises and positively conditions the atmosphere regardless.

Life cycles of the solar system...
ONCE AROUND THE SUN

The story of the seasons and, correspondingly, the cycles of life - death - and rebirth of it's inhabitants. It is a very vibrant, bright and crystalline album and is not so much for relaxation as it is for creative visualisations. It was the second album in the collection and was still quite experimental and avant-garde. We all live in the body of the Sun as it expresses itself through the planets.

Within and without - Paradise...
VISIONS OF PARADISE
Going with the flow.. sometimes floating... sometimes flowing... The first vision travels down into the inner caverns of being, filled with peace and awe... and then floats back up into the outer cathedral of being... and the second vision cascades from on high down through streams and lakes of experience... finally flowing into the great crystal ocean of life.

Breathe your own radiant self...
THE RADIANT SELF
A journey into your own radiant source followed by the realisations that come within that space. It takes you from the outer rim of your 'is-land'... through into the white hot 'love-a' at the top of the central volcano... from that space a vortex of light reveals five spheres on a giant pentagram floating overhead through the mists. The final realisation is the journey itself. (Double CD)

A journey beyond the stars...
THE GREAT GREAT SILENCE

This is where it all began. On this CD there are two spacey adventures, up and out into the vast cosmos. On these inner expeditions you encounter strange other worlds and beings navigating their way across the dimensions. Both the journeys move your consciousness up through the body and out into your imagination before returning with a real sense of transformation. (Double CD)
