Lumen Cosmic
The Birth of the Lumen Series
It was this search that led to his greatest creation — the Lumen Series, a literary cosmos where science meets spirit, and each planet holds a piece of the human soul.
Very artist carries a secret world within.
For Volkaan Berkochi, that world had always been made of stars.
The idea came quietly — one night, while watching the sky from his California window. The moon hung low, trembling on the horizon, and he thought: Every planet must have a story. Every orbit, a feeling. Every light, a memory.
From that thought, Lumen Mercury was born — a book not only about the smallest planet, but about the restless messenger within us all. It was science, myth, and poetry woven together — a dance of intellect and heart. Mercury's swiftness mirrored the poet's mind; his heat, the burning of creation.
Readers began to see the cosmos differently through his words — not as cold space, but as a living symphony of meaning.
Then came the others:
• Lumen Solis, where the Sun became the eternal source of both power and forgiveness.
• Lumen Venus, a hymn to beauty and desire.
• Lumen Terra, the reflection of humanity's fragile miracle.
• Lumen Mars, the echo of courage and loss.
• Lumen Jupiteris, wisdom wrapped in storms.
• Lumen Saturni, time and memory's keeper.
• Lumen Uranus, the dreamer and disruptor.
• Lumen Neptuni, the poet of deep waters.
• Lumen Pluto, the exile, the hidden heart of darkness.
Together, they became the Lumen Cosmics, a symphony of creation — written not by a scientist, but by a poet who saw the universe as a mirror of the human soul.
Each book was a planet.
Each planet, a feeling.
Each feeling, a light.

About the Author

I was born in January 1971 in Türkiye, where the rhythm of tradition and a deep curiosity for knowledge shaped my earliest years. From childhood, I was captivated by the mysteries of the natural world — a fascination that led me to study physics, seeking harmony in both numbers and the cosmos.

After completing my studies, my journey carried me beyond Türkiye to the United States. For more than sixteen years, I have made my home in California — a place of vast horizons, creativity, and discovery. Here, between cultures and continents, I have learned to see beauty in both silence and sound.

Alongside my scientific path, I found my truest expression in poetry. My books — Lumen Mercury, Lumen Cosmic, and Black Shadows — explore the intersection of light and darkness, reason and emotion, love and longing. Each collection is a reflection of my journey through science and spirit, exploring what it means to be human beneath the stars.

“As you walk, your eyes rest on your toes;
Quiet, small, puffy gazes;
Your thoughts are black;
Your smiles are bargained for...”

Through verses like these, I write to reveal the unseen — the quiet pulse of existence that connects all hearts and elements of the universe.

My life continues as a bridge between East and West, science and art, logic and soul. With each poem and each reader, I carry forward a light born of curiosity, love, and the eternal mystery that unites us all.
