If you are sufficiently interested in this type of music to read this review, you will probably like this CD. If you also like to meditate with music on, you will definitely like this CD. The music will transport you in both time and space. I gave the CD four stars instead of five because it has one flaw: Track number 4 sounds too modern, and is out of place. If you can program your CD player, skip track 4, and you will have a great experience.

If I could give this a 10, I would!

I've been on the quest for good sacred space/meditation music for quite some time. I took a risk since, I really couldn't tell by the sound bytes if I'd like it. I brought it home, lit some incense, candles and got comfortable whilst I pressed 'play'. For me, it was like magic. "At first, the metallic-stringed harp reminded me of Japanese music, but as the album moves along, there's something not quite Asian, African or Middle Eastern -- but definitely mystical. I would think Markoe tapped into the "Eternal Now" so aptly put on the first track of the CD. My small, cramped bedroom was turned into a temple and I, its priestess. Well done! The great thing is that each track can apply to a specific ritual or practice and their names reflect that. The first song, I used for meditation (simply programmed to repeat over and over). The next one is great for morning or "pre-dawn devotion" as described and so on. Quite versatile and yet it doesn't command one's attention, so you can easily meditate, sleep, do yoga or journal to it without being mesmerized by the melodies.

I use this cd often, during my healing or Energy sessions. I also use it during my Energy classes. All of the songs have an interesting, sort of captivating, sometimes haunting melody. My clients & students enjoy when I play this cd. Many clients have gone out & bought it themselves.
