Contained within Shifting Perception, I both define the shift in perception as well as offer helpful meditations and affirmations to assist in this necessary process. It’s necessary because without raising our vibration to a higher frequency, we have a more difficult time aligning in our soul essence, again necessary for our soul’s ascension into higher realities and dimensions.
I finally finished my eighth book, Shifting Perception, and decided to publish it on a self-publishing platform other than Amazon. I had been using Amazon for everything but the disadvantage of that is I can’t publish at other booksellers or platforms. So, I did some research and found Draft 2 Digital and after endless consideration, I chose them to publish my future books.
I can publish to Amazon from Draft 2 Digital if I want to as well as Scribd, Barnes & Noble, Apple Books, and several others and considering they’re adding more distributors all the time, I thought Draft 2 Digital would be the best option to reach the widest audience.
My goal when developing and then writing Shifting Perception was to create a manual or guidebook of sorts into shifting perception away from the ego and back into Spirit. Although we focus a portion of our soul or Spirit into bodies, it’s only a small part of who we really are as expressions of Source Presence. Given the tenor of the times and the awareness of ascension, both planetary and collectively, it is time to begin shifting our awareness and perception away from reaction and toward creation from a higher frequency of being.
In other words, view everyone as the other side of self instead of simply the other. I’ve been talking about this idea for a long time now, both here at Stepping Aside as well as on Somewhat Daily Tarot and Rune and it seemed like the time was right for this book.
I was provided a general link to Shifting Perception at Draft 2 Digital and when clicked it takes you to a page where the reader can select the company they wish to purchase it from. Or, since it’s on Scribd, a company that you have a subscription to. I have one and have had it for years. Scribd has a ton of books and other publications to read and enjoy and if you’re an avid reader or researcher, you can’t go wrong with a Scribd account.
Shifting Perception went live on February 18, 2020. I hope everyone who reads it finds something to assist them in finding a less reactive focus and transmuting ego into Spirit.
Blessings! And thank you in advance for reading Shifting Perception!

Witch Notes is a book of teas, magickal workings, and spellcasting reminders. In other words, it’s a book of correspondences, among other things. But I wanted one for myself that kept everything I use in one spot that was easy to find and when I was done, I realized I had a book to share, so here it is…Witch Notes, both in Kindle and paperback formats!
Magick and the Aligned Witch is about working magick when aligned in Source Presence. I’ve included some information on rune and herb magick, but primarily this book looks at how we raise our frequency through alignment and performing magick from that state.
Grimoire of a Crone is a small grimoire of correspondences and more for those just beginning their journey. It gives a witch a jumping-off point when creating his or her own grimoire or book of shadows.
For those highly sensitive people who are coming to terms with everything they feel and experience, Empath talks about my own journey into understanding my own empathic awareness and how I experience the energetic resonance of life. In Empath, I also share various coping and shielding tips to get through some of the more vampiric moments of life.
Hedgewitch of the Village tells the story of Willow, a hedgewitch and herbalist, and her life in a village full of friends, family, and Raven, her companion since childhood.
Magick, friendship, and a common purpose beyond them all bring witches, demons, and magickal neighbors together to repair the village’s failing Portal to other dimensions all while Willow juggles teaching classes on teas, herbal preparations, and all things cannabis to women of a certain age.
Join Willow as she explores both the natural and astral realms in this story about love, family, and magick! Blessings!
It’s easy to take in and absorb vampiric energy which is the last thing an empath should do. It’s also easy to believe that we’re either responsible for what’s happening or that we deserve it somehow.
In When Vampires Attack, I explain that although strategies for coping are extremely helpful, understanding not only what’s happening when empaths experience a full-on vampiric attack but also the type of vampire the empath is dealing with makes any protection strategies more helpful and meaningful. Staying in control of the experience is key, and When Vampires Attack helps the empath do just that.
