  We investigate the quantum cosmologies of the Bianchi IX and VIII models when
a cosmological constant, aligned electromagnetic field and free scalar field
are present. The conserved quantity $p_{\phi}$ associated with our free scalar
field results in $\phi$ classically being a quantity which monotonically
increases with respect to time, thus allowing it to fulfill the role of an
'emergent' internal clock for our constrained quantum systems. We embark on
this investigation to better understand how matter sources can affect general
anisotropic quantum cosmologies. To aid us we use the Euclidean-signature semi
classical method to obtain our wave functions and analyze them. In addition we
study briefly the quantum Taub models when an $e^{ \phi}$ potential and aligned
electromagnetic field are present. One of the interesting things we found was
that our aligned electromagnetic field, depending on how strong it is, can
create or destroy geometric states in our 'excited' state wave functions that
quantum Bianchi IX universes can tunnel in and out of. This creation of a state
is somewhat similar to how non-commutativity in the minisuperspace variables
can cause new quantum states to emerge in the quantum Kantowski-Sachs and
Bianchi I models. Our results further show the utility of the
Euclidean-signature semi classical method towards tackling Lorentzian signature
problems without having to invoke a Wick rotation. This feature of not needing
to apply a Wick rotation makes this method potentially very useful for tackling
a variety of problems in bosonic relativistic field theory and quantum gravity.
