Live a More Informed & Enriched Life
Down to Earth: Demystify Intuition to Upgrade Your Life is a thoughtful blend of personal stories, practical exercises, and scientific studies showing readers that intuition is not a mystical talent, but an everyday skill that can be honed. Why was this an important book for you to write?
I am convinced that tapping into intuition can help us live more informed and enriched lives. I developed simple ways to tap into intuition and wanted to share these with as many people as possible. Intuition always held a special place in my life, and became more important after a life-altering event that brought moments of deep mental and emotional peace. I talk about this in the Introduction of my book. I often came up with creative ideas and solutions to long-standing problems while I was in this mentally and emotionally calm state which activated my intuition. Curious about this process, I began researching intuition. I studied with various teachers, completed an apprenticeship, and read every book and scientific study on intuition I could find. I started offering intuitive guidance sessions and eventually developed my own approach to help clients access their intuition more effectively. As more people joined as students, I created a curriculum that later became the foundation of my book, Down to Earth: Demystify Intuition to Upgrade Your Life, published on September 15, 2025.
What is a common misconception you feel people have about intuition and a person’s ability to develop it as a life skill?
Some people think that intuition is a special skill that only highly intuitive people have. In reality, it is a readily available skill that we all have and even use without realizing it. Intuition is a form of knowing or a sensation we get about something or someone without any prior conscious thought process. It draws on the knowledge and experiences we accumulate throughout our lives. There are many activities that we engage in without consciously thinking about every move and every step such as playing a sport or cooking. There may be some parts of these activities that require conscious analysis but for the most part, we just go with what we sense and muscle memory. We also use our intuition a lot socially. We sense if someone is tense or relaxed just by noticing their posture or the pace of their breath. All of this is intuition in action. It gives us useful information that can help guide our decisions and actions when we learn how to interpret and combine it with logic and other inputs such as research for due diligence.
I loved that you used neuroscience and psychology research as well as provided readers with examples and exercises to gain a better understanding of intuition. Did you find anything in your research of this book that surprised you?
In many cases, my exercises and guided meditations were inspired by students and clients based on what they needed to figure out. I tried these exercises with others, and if they worked, I included them in my book. I also used slow intuition. This type of intuition is activated when you take a break from trying to solve a problem and do something that calms your mind and emotions. Researchers such as Kenneth Gilhooly have described how nonconscious processing occurs during these break periods as intuition gets activated. It was surprising for me to learn that stepping away for such a break right after being introduced to a problem results in more creative solutions compared to working on the problem for a while then taking such a break when you get stuck. For example, you look at what the problem is, then go for a quiet walk in nature even before making your first attempt at solving it. I talk about this in the last chapter of my book.
What is one thing that you hope readers take away from Down to Earth?
I hope that readers discover ways to tap into intuition that work well for them and combine their intuition with logic and other inputs to make more grounded decisions, improve relationships, and take better care of themselves. As people connect more with their intuition, they can understand themselves and each other more deeply. This can cultivate greater compassion for themselves and others making the world a better place for all of us.

If you’ve ever wondered how to harness your intuition to make better, more informed decisions, this is the practical guide you need. In Down to Earth, intuition teacher Nil Demircubuk guides you in understanding how to distinguish your conscious thoughts from your intuition, then intentionally combine it with your intellect for everyday decision-making and personal growth.
The book introduces “priming,” a method for tapping into intuition by achieving mental and emotional calmness, offering several techniques tailored to different learning styles. As you practice reaching this state and tuning in, you’ll also learn what makes your intuition come alive through a non-conscious process.
Through easy-to-follow exercises, real-life applications, and client stories, Down to Earth helps you use your intuition to make better decisions, improve relationships, navigate challenges, and enhance self-care.
Intuitive and Non-Logical
Love’s Cauldron traces your path from childhood wounds and self-doubt toward awakening her “witch self,” a reclamation of intuition, creativity, and the divine feminine. Why was this an important book for you to write?
Writing Love’s Cauldron made me much more aware of how the feminine aspects of myself have been shaped and impacted by my family, our culture, and the world. It was only in writing the book and talking about what I had written that I fully realized that part of my identity (and sensitivity) was that of a Healing Witch. I had not fully understood the value of my feminine sides previously.
What were some ideas that were important for you to share in this book?
In a world dominated by logic, it was vital for me to look at how specific feminine qualities have been demonized. The intuitive, those who channel, and the non-logical have been made suspect and sometimes punished by mainstream culture. I also wanted to share what an emotional healing journey looks and feels like.
What was the most challenging part of writing your memoir and what was the most rewarding?
I had wanted to write this book for years. But I had not been able to sense how to weave together the ideas that were percolating. It was challenging to write a non-linear book without losing the reader. It was satisfying to have the book come together and to see that, despite its unorthodox form, it worked. It was also rewarding to have readers let me know that it had a positive impact on them.
What do you hope is one thing readers take away from your story?
I hope that the readers will affirm aspects of themselves that they have not fully claimed. I wish for them to understand more about themselves and about the necessity of these undervalued aspects of each of us.

Jennifer J. Lehr, LMFT, shares her journey from emotional pain and disconnection to deep self-awareness and spiritual awakening. Weaving together memories, mystical understanding, and guidance from the unseen realms, she offers a path to reconnect with our intuition, compassion, and inner voice—qualities often lost in a world that favors logic over feeling.
Through powerful narratives and sacred incantations, Love’s Cauldron redefines the meaning of “witch” as someone who embraces all aspects of themselves and holds the power to transform not only their own life, but the world around them. This is a book for anyone who has ever felt marginalized, silenced, or spiritually disconnected—and who longs to come home to their wild, wise self.
Whether you’re healing from trauma, seeking spiritual connection, or curious about reclaiming your feminine power, this book will stir something ancient and true within you. The feminine is rising—and Love’s Cauldron is a call to remember, rejoice, and rise with it.
Love’s Cauldron: Reclaim Your Wild Feminine
Love’s Cauldron is part memoir, part spiritual guide, and part poetic incantation. Author Jennifer J. Lehr traces her path from childhood wounds and self-doubt toward awakening her “witch self,” a reclamation of intuition, creativity, and the divine feminine. The book moves between personal stories, reflections, and poetry, exploring themes of trauma, healing, and empowerment. It invites readers to honor the unseen, the magical, and the deeply emotional parts of themselves. Lehr’s voice blends vulnerability with wisdom, and she treats her life as a sacred collage, each experience a fragment of becoming whole.
Reading it felt intimate and raw. Lehr’s honesty pulled me in, especially when she described her fear of revealing her spiritual identity and her journey through pain toward acceptance. The mix of memoir and mysticism gave the writing a pulse, alive with both sorrow and hope. Some sections read like prayers, others like confessions. Her reflections on trauma, how it hides in the body, how healing demands courage, resonated with me. At times, the writing stretched into abstraction, and I found myself pausing to catch up emotionally. Still, the beauty of her language and her conviction kept me turning the pages. It’s not a light read, but it’s one that lingers.
What I admired most was Lehr’s blend of psychological insight and spiritual wonder. As a therapist and a self-proclaimed witch, she stands between science and spirit and refuses to choose one over the other. That mix gave the book a grounded magic. Some might resist her talk of guides, past lives, and energy healing, but her sincerity makes it hard to dismiss. The poetry scattered throughout is rich and sensory. It slows the reader down, asking you to feel rather than analyze. I caught myself reading lines twice, just to savor them.
I’d recommend Love’s Cauldron to readers drawn to self-discovery, spirituality, and feminine wisdom. It’s for anyone who has ever felt “too sensitive” or out of step with the world and who wants to see that sensitivity as strength. It’s also a gentle call to those who’ve buried parts of themselves, to dig them up, dust them off, and let them breathe.

ELIXIR: A Journey into Ancestral Alchemology
Gisella Rose’s ELIXIR: A Journey into Ancestral Alchemology is a lush blend of memoir, mysticism, and method. It’s a spiritual guide that threads together genealogy, astrology, elemental wisdom, and somatic awareness into what she calls “Ancestral Alchemology.” The book opens with her near-death experience at age three and moves through a lifetime of weaving ancestry, astrology, and self-healing into a single sacred practice. Rose explains how the elements, fire, water, air, and earth, shape not just nature but the stories of our bloodlines. Through the “MoonTree Chart,” she shows readers how to trace cosmic patterns through family history, turning family trees into living constellations. The work is both personal and strangely universal, a map for anyone wanting to understand where they come from and how to heal old generational wounds.
The writing is rich and sensory, sometimes so poetic it hums. Rose’s language is vivid and flowing, full of emotion and imagery, though at times it wanders into repetition. Still, there’s a raw sincerity that holds it all together. I loved how she brought her grief and her wonder into the same space, never polishing away the human messiness behind the mysticism. She invites the reader to think of ancestry not as data but as story, as breath, as pulse. The mix of spiritual and practical astrological charts, along with reflections on trauma and epigenetics, makes the work feel grounded even when it reaches into the mystical.
At times, the writing drifts into abstraction, and I found myself wishing for a few more grounded examples or simpler turns of phrase. Still, the poetic rhythm has a beauty that draws you in. Those slower passages feel intentional. It’s a book meant to unfold gently, best read slowly. I often paused to reflect, thinking of my own family and the quiet stories resting in my roots. The book left me with a soft ache and a lingering curiosity that felt both tender and alive.
ELIXIR is best suited for readers drawn to the mystical and introspective, people who love astrology, ritual, or personal transformation through ancestral work. It’s a companion for seekers. I’d recommend it to anyone who feels their roots tugging at them, who wants to bridge the spiritual with the tangible, who believes that healing can travel through time.

Transform Your Cosmic Self: A Comprehensive Guide from Awakening to Ascension (Including Reflections and Exercises)
Joy Vottus’s Transform Your Cosmic Self is a sweeping spiritual guide that charts a path from awakening to ascension. It blends autobiography, metaphysics, and practical exercises to help readers explore their spiritual evolution. The book begins with Vottus’s own journey, from childhood sensitivities in Taiwan to enlightenment and unity with her Higher Self, Vottus, and expands into cosmic teachings about creation, consciousness, and multidimensional existence. Drawing from sources like Buddhist traditions, channeling, and energy healing, she introduces readers to concepts such as the Flower of Life, ascension to 5D consciousness, and the idea of Earth as a school for souls. Each chapter closes with reflections and exercises, inviting readers not only to understand but to experience spiritual transformation firsthand.
Reading this book felt like being pulled into someone’s vivid dream of the universe. The writing is passionate and unguarded. Sometimes I found myself swept up in its beauty, the imagery of light fields, crystalline bodies, and higher realms felt oddly comforting, like glimpsing the universe through a stained-glass window. The claims of 13,000 incarnations, direct messages from Ascended Masters, and life as a new “Ascended Master on Earth” can feel beyond belief, even for readers familiar with New Age literature. Still, there’s something disarmingly sincere about Vottus’s voice. She doesn’t write like a detached guru. She writes like someone who has lived every word, sometimes painfully, sometimes joyfully, and that raw honesty makes the book compelling.
What struck me most was how personal the grand ideas felt. Behind the cosmic diagrams and starseed lineages is a woman healing from trauma, betrayal, and loss. Her journey through spiritual manipulation, doubt, and self-reclamation is the emotional core of the book. The sections about self-healing and forgiveness resonated with me more than the multidimensional theories. Vottus’s openness about her pain gives depth to the more abstract material. The writing can occasionally be heavy with spiritual jargon, yet her tone remains warm. Reading it felt like sitting across from someone telling you about the wildest road trip of their life, sometimes unbelievable, often moving, always heartfelt.
I’d recommend Transform Your Cosmic Self to readers who are curious about ascension teachings, starseed ideas, or the intersection of spirituality and personal healing. For dreamers, seekers, and anyone standing at the edge of their own awakening, it offers a mirror. I closed the book feeling inspired, which, to me, is a sign that it did exactly what it set out to do: stir the soul and invite the reader to look beyond the ordinary.

Star People’s Wisdom
Star People’s Wisdom moves through levels of consciousness like Akashic, Quantum, and what Basil calls the Megaquantic Field, weaving cosmic science and divine energy into one sweeping spiritual map. It’s not written like a story so much as received energy, a transmission from something higher. The messages from Star People, the talk of DNA shifting into crystalline light, and the merging of God as both darkness and radiance, it all reads like a channeled vision of what’s coming for humanity. The pages buzz with devotion and a call to remember who we really are: infinite beings in a body, walking a universe made of vibration and love.
I’ll be honest, parts of it left me breathless, other parts left me spinning. There’s this raw sincerity in the author’s words, like she’s cracked open her heart and just let the universe speak. Her talk of the “Megaquantic Field” feels wild and new, like she’s building a bridge between physics and prayer. The writing swings between poetic and deeply personal. You can tell she’s lived what she’s sharing. Every fear, every awakening, every night spent staring into the void looking for God. It’s not academic, but that’s part of its charm. It’s like sitting in a long conversation with a friend.
There’s a lot here. Cosmic downloads, alien collectives, energetic codes. It’s easy to get overwhelmed. But when I stopped trying to “get” it and just felt it, something shifted. Her words carried a vibration, like they weren’t meant to convince but to awaken. I felt my own memories stir, old ones, soul-deep ones. Maybe that’s what she meant when she said the book is alive. It really does feel that way.
If you’re someone who’s walking a spiritual path, who’s ever felt like the world doesn’t quite fit anymore, this book will resonate with you. It’s perfect for the seekers, the sensitives, the ones who talk to the stars at night and mean it. It’s for the dreamers and those who are ready, as Basil says, to remember.

Star People’s Wisdom: Messages From Beyond The Stars For Human Awakening
From the very beginning, Star People’s Wisdom sets itself apart as something more than a book. It is presented as a transmission, a living energy, rather than just words on a page. Author Victoria Basil takes readers on a sweeping exploration of consciousness, from the Akashic Records to the Quantum and into the newly revealed Megaquantic Field. Along the way, she weaves together personal experiences, channeled messages, and cosmic insights. The themes stretch wide: humanity’s spiritual evolution, the balance of light and dark in God, the recalibration of DNA, and the guidance of extraterrestrial beings she calls the Star People. At its heart, the book serves as a transformational map for seekers stepping into deeper awareness of themselves and the universe.
What struck me most was the tone of intimacy and urgency. Basil doesn’t write like a distant teacher. She writes like someone opening a door and waving you in, insisting that you’re ready, even if you don’t feel it yet. At times, I felt pulled into her excitement, almost like sitting with a friend who just discovered something too important to keep to herself. The rawness of her journey, the trauma, the doubts, the strange synchronicities, gave the cosmic material a human grounding that made it relatable, even when the subject matter stretched the limits of comprehension. The writing often circles back, emphasizing key insights with passion. At times the phrasing reaches for grandeur, but the sincerity beneath it kept me turning pages.
Some of the concepts challenged me. The Megaquantic Field, crystalline DNA, and dimensional timelines are not ideas that come easily. Yet I also found myself unexpectedly moved. Her discussion of God as both light and dark, for example, was thought-provoking. It reframed the discomfort I’ve always had with “all light” spirituality, and it felt refreshingly honest. Her channelings from the Star People, whether taken literally or symbolically, carried an energy of encouragement and compassion that I couldn’t dismiss. There’s a warmth in her insistence that no one is broken or too late, and that reminder is a gift in itself.
I would recommend this book to anyone on a spiritual path who feels restless, curious, or out of place in conventional explanations of reality. This is a book for seekers who resonate with words like awakening, energy, higher timelines, and soul expansion, those open to transformational ideas that stretch beyond the boundaries of accepted science. It is not just read, it is experienced. Infused with channeled wisdom and conscious awakening, it serves as both a companion and a catalyst, guiding readers to feel as much as they think. For those ready to expand their awareness, Star People’s Wisdom offers inspiration, remembrance, and a spark of illumination for the path ahead.

Lord, Lord – a heavenly mystery
Lord, Lord – a heavenly mystery tells the story of Liza, a small-town reporter who suddenly finds herself in Heaven after her untimely death. What follows is not a harp-filled, cloud-floating afterlife but a layered, curious introduction to eternity where angels sip tea, Heaven looks like an Ivy League dean’s office, and “tourists” are given soft landings before judgment. Through conversations with Michaela, her welcoming angel, Liza begins to unpack her life, her choices, her loves, and her mistakes, all while navigating the strange mix of humor and gravity that this version of the afterlife offers.
Author Kathleen Cochran writes with a conversational ease, almost like sitting down with a sharp-witted friend who isn’t afraid to poke at your doubts and faith. The dialogue carried most of the story, and it was both quick and playful, though sometimes it wandered so much I caught myself rereading passages to stay grounded. Still, there were moments that stopped me in my tracks, like when Michaela explained the Bible as a kind of recruiting tool.
Liza’s questioning sometimes circled back on itself, and a few of the explanations felt a little more direct than I expected. Still, the story would then shift into a tender memory or drop in a line of humor that caught me off guard in the best way, and those moments made me appreciate the guidance rather than resist it. The balance between skepticism and belief felt real. I never doubted Liza’s cynicism because it sounded so much like my own inner voice when I wrestle with faith.
By the end, I felt like I’d been through both a lighthearted play and a quiet sermon. It isn’t a book for someone who wants tidy theology or a straight path to answers. It’s better suited for readers who like their mysteries with a side of laughter, who don’t mind Heaven being described with Persian rugs and Waterford lamps, and who want to explore faith without losing the messiness of doubt. I’d recommend it to anyone who enjoys thought-provoking fiction with a spiritual edge, especially if they don’t mind a story that feels more like a conversation than a plot-driven march.

LITERARY TITAN
