OMTIMES MAGAZINE

Planet 9

ROSE MCGOWANÂ I'm Rose McGowan, and for a long time, I worked in a strange place called Hollywood. Being an actress was my day job, but behind the scenes, I was honing my skills as a multimedia artist, writer, and thought leader. After realizing I'd worked on sets for over 57k hours, I knew it was time to assert my own voice, so I directed a short film called Dawn, which was nominated for the Sundance Grand Jury Prize.

After Dawn, I began a three-year writing project, my book, BRAVE. While writing about my life and thoughts on Society, I needed to create art that would be soothing. I'd always loved using my voice, it was my favorite part of performing.

When I was a small child going through tough times, I created a utopian world in my mind, and I named it Planet 9. I felt safe on this invented planet of mine. I also used to wonder what sounds existed on my planet.

By herself

As life went on, I forgot about how special my planet was, I forgot I could go there in times of trouble.

Six years ago, astronomers found a new planet they named Planet 9 - It's the new planet that demoted Pluto to a star. Holy s!

They found my Planet 9! Around the same time, I met some French electronic musicians, and I decided to make music that has the power to lift your spirit.

I know this, art heals. Planet 9 takes you on an extraordinary journey.

I am not trying to be a pop star, I will not be performing this album.

By using my knowledge of cinema sound design, I carefully created the sounds and words for a better place, an unknown world in our own mind that we can all travel to.

Planet 9 is an artistic endeavor that I hope will help others meditate in a unique way. Let go, come to Planet 9.

OMTIMES: How did you embark on this path, on music as a pathway to connecting people and bringing them to a realization of themselves?

Rose Mc Gowan: I started creating Planet 9 five years ago so I could have something to listen to that made my mind and spirit feel better. I wanted to give this music to others as I knew it could help them as much as it helped me. I tested Planet 9 on different groups of people of all ages. My favorite ‘experiment’ was played the album for three children around age ten. When asked afterward how it made them feel, they each took turns answering. One of the children said the music made them feel safe, one said home, and one said free. Quite possibly the best review I could get for my album.

OMTIMES: Through the years, you have developed a unique identification with the Personification of the Divine Feminine.

Through your voice, you empowered the transformation and co-creation of reality for many women. What is the Vision, and what do you believe to be the role of the Divine Feminine in our Society today?

Rose Mc Gowan: The Divine Feminine is something that has been twisted and hurt for centuries, and I wanted women to wake up to their own power. People tend to think of femininity as weakness, inherently hated by so many men who sadly have been told to hate that part of themselves, but the opposite is true. By learning to respect femininity in ourselves, we can help restore the power imbalance.

All of us count, all of us matter. I believe the role of the Divine Feminine changes, sometimes it needs to roar; other times, it can be a delicate thing. By coming to love and respect our bodies, minds, and spirits, we are honoring the Divine Feminine and changing social structure.

OMTIMES| JUNE A

THE AWESOME THING ABOUT BEING AN ARTIST? YOU CAN'T BE FIRED FROM YOUR OWN MIND. ROSE MCGOWAN

OMTIMES | JUNE A

OMTIMES: No doubt, you are a multimedia artist and one of the most multi-dimensional celebrities of our time. You have been a symbol across the spectrum of religion, spirituality, health, and personal growth. How do you keep the delicate balance among the many sides of your creative process?

Rose Mc Gowan: Thank you very much for saying so. I don’t consider myself a celebrity, I consider myself a notable public figure and artist. I try to keep my creative balance by giving two hours a day to each discipline I practice. I deeply believe in personal growth and expanding minds, whether it be through my book, Brave, my music, video art, or music. Brave is the other component in my Planet 9 project, they are separate entities, but since I wrote my book and crafted the album simultaneously, they are the flips of each other.

Brave is for thinking differently, and Planet 9 is the healing for doing so.

OMTimes: Do you follow any routine for songwriting? How do you get inspired?

Rose Mc Gowan: I need to be inspired by the music first in order to write a song. I’ve got to be inspired by the rhythm and sound in order to let the lyrics flow. I truly love the songwriting process. The songs Lonely House, Sirene, and We Are Free poured out of me in two hours, the lyrics just flowed. That’s when I Know I have something special. I listen to those songs, and I can’t believe I wrote them, especially my most personal song, Lonely House.

OMTIMES: On your new Music Project, Planet 9, Rx for Healing, you bring to life a landscape from an intimate and eerie contemplative state. How did you fuse the language of the Universe, with music and poetry?

Tell us a little about this experience.

P L A N E T

RX FOR HEALING

A

Rose Mc Gowan: Poetry is one of the great gifts we humans possess. It was very important to me to know when to sing, rhythmically speak or be silent, letting the music dictate where the placement of the voice. One of my songs, Rise, is instrumental with no vocals. I kept hearing it with no lyrics, so I didn’t write lyrics for it. At that point in the album, I wanted people to experience the emotion of sound without my voice. At the end of the day, what you don’t do is as important as what you do. Listening to what the music wants is very important.

OMTIMES: Your new music creation is really fascinating. I think it is what you are doing, that you are creating with your music a harmonic feeling of transcendent connectedness, as opposed to alienation. How does your world view play a role in your music?

Rose McGowan: Great question. My world view is that we can all feel that connectedness if we tap into that frequency. I wanted to make music that says something important, but also gives the grace of transcendence.

My opening song, Canes Venatici, starts off with ‘What’s so good, why do you stay, for fear, for love, for commonplace,’ and that’s about challenging why we stay in a power structure that doesn’t serve us. If our reality is an illusion, let’s change it to vibrate on a higher frequency, and that’s what Planet 9 is about.

OMTIMES: We all have witnessed your bravery on standing up for Victims of Sexual and Domestic Violence and bringing them a voice. In your music “Sirene” (a Song for Courage), you make clear this is a song for Survivors.

Can you tell us a little about that?

Rose Mc Gowan: What I love about Sirene is that it has this driving beat, but hidden in the music are deep lyrics about a survivors rage, the lies society tells. I sing ‘lose yourself to death, you’ll find yourself in life,’ and what I mean by that is shedding our hurt selves, which is a daunting process, but ultimately it frees us to be the awesome 2.0 version of ourselves that we can become.

OMTIMES| JUNE A

BRAVE is McGowan’s raw, honest, and poignant memoir/manifesto— a no-holds-barred, pull-no-punches account of the rise of a millennial icon, fearless activist, and unstoppable force for change which is determined to expose the truth about the entertainment industry, dismantle the concept of fame, shine a light on a multibillion-dollar business built on systemic misogyny, and empower people everywhere to wake up and be BRAVE.

OMTIMES: You have had so many different and eclectic experiences in your life. You have changed lives, influence cultures, and build bridges.

Do you consider yourself a fearless person?

Rose McGowan: No, bravery requires fear.

Changing the World is a scary endeavor, with many pitfalls and hardships. Feeling fear is a necessary component of being brave. Instead of getting overwhelmed, I channel that fear anxiety into action.

Righteous anger is also something that’s taken away from omen on the whole, but it can move mountains and give us the strength to change our lives if we harness that fear and channel it into action. I don’t have many fears left as I’ve had to work through so many of them in order to achieve what I want to achieve. When you mess with the power structure and the status quo, they fight back, and that can be scary, but even when you’re ankles shake, we must stand tall, or they win.

OMTIMES: Would you define yourself as a Soul Activist or more of a Social Zen Warrior (or both)?

Rose Mc Gowan: I would describe myself as a Soul Warrior. I battle for all of us because of our strength and softness too often get stolen by those I call spirit thieves. I am soulful, but I am a warrior in this life, it doesn’t always make it fun, but in this life’s incarnation, it has been who I am since my earliest memory.

OMTIMES: Tell us a bit more about your next creative projects and how people can follow you and learn more about your events since the current pandemic seems to be an issue for many?

Rose Mc Gowan: My next creative project is working on teaching bravery to others, a healing skincare line I’ve created as an answer to the beauty industries toxins. I’m developing an immersive Planet 9 tour with the visuals I’ve filmed and great sound. I want to bring art out of galleries and museum walls. You can find the links to my book Brave and Planet 9, as well as for instructions for its maximum effect on my site RoseMcGowan.com or follow me on Instagram, Facebook, or Twitter @Rose McGowan.

OMTIMES: Do you hold a Mystical / Cultural Vision for our World? What would you like to see manifested in our collective reality now?

Rose Mc Gowan: I’d like to manifest a better, healthier reality. What’s interesting about the pandemic is that we all have a chance to use this time to dig deep into who we are at the core and reintroduce ourselves to the World in a fresh way. If you are fortunate enough to use this time to reflect and grow, we will come out of this with a new reality, our own.

OMTIMES: Tell us a little bit about your book, Brave, and the inspiration behind its creation. Do you have plans for publishing more books?

Rose Mc Gowan: Brave is raw, unflinching, funny, adventurous, but most of all, I use my stories to push at thought boundaries. It’s a Trojan Horse of an autobiography, really a hybrid of a story of a big life, motivational book. I pull back the curtain on Hollywood and media to show what is being done to our collective mind, and how we can take it back.

OMTIMES| JUNE A

OMTIMES: This leads to my next question. When you sing, one can feel your perfect connection with the Divine Feminine. What is it like, and how does it feel like to share this connection with others?

Rose Mc Gowan: Thank you for saying so. Someone told me the other day that Planet 9 is feminine, but I see all of us, men, women, transhumans, as beings who have a right to explore the softness and strength of femininity.

I used primarily French musicians on the album, and it’s a different sound to what Americans bring, which is typically a bit harder. Planet 9 is made for soothing anxiety, dancing, and, most of all, feeling free. Sharing my life’s work with others is extraordinary, I love getting messages about how people are reacting to it. All I can say is that Planet 9 works in mysterious ways, and I’m happy to share it with you all.

When you look at the view of Earth from space, you are immediately in awe of what you do see: the incredible beauty of Creation. It is not until you look closer that you realize what you do not see.

You do not see lines partitioning countries.

You do not see separation between races.

You do not see division between religions.

You do not see the walls people build to isolate themselves from each other.
