	The Empress opens with something reminiscent of Led Zeppelin, acoustic guitars with heavy bass and drums, but it doesn't stay that way, with more lush vocals and keyboards changing the mood. "Songs like The Empress really capture a blissful oblivion that is rare in the music scene these days." DOWNLOAD THIS RE-MIXED / RE-MASTERED VERSION BEFORE IT DISAPEARS FROM THIS SITE!

	Story Behind the Song One of the songs that I have been working on since the days when Medusa broke up was a long and epic piece of music called "The Tarot Meditations" based on writings in "The Book of Tokens" by Paul Foster Case. It will eventually have 22 songs making up the entire piece. I have currently written the first 10 songs and I'm working on the last 12. Three of these were recorded by Phreeworld on their most recent CD "Crossing the Sound". They were No. III - The Empress, No. VII - The Chariot and No. IX - The Hermit. The running time for the first 10 songs is about 60+ minutes. One of the pieces, No. XI - The Lovers has been orchestrated for a 100 piece symphony orchestra. Lyrics The Empress No. III from "The Tarot Meditations" Copyright 1998 by Phreeworld Lyrics by Brian Phraner Mother, Father, Understanding three. Brother, Sister, Understanding me. The knowledge that comes from being Me. The plan of existence spinning known to you, through Me. I am the door to bring forth the worlds of form. aha, ha, aha - aha, ha, aha. The balance of thought, The giver of Life, I am the door, so bring forth the world. Mother, Father, Understanding three. Brother, Sister, Understanding me. The knowledge that comes from being Me.
