Humble Pranaams Krishnaji, I tried getting in touch with Krishnaji of Medhayoga. He responded too but it couldn't go further because of not having his email id. I decided also not to go ahead with learning rituals because I feel that Maa does not want me to do that. I believe that she is guiding me in my journey or rather I like to believe that she is. So I will just read the Maa's Ashtothara Shatnaamavali & the Kavacam for now. But what I want to ask you about is something else. I was reading an article on Tantra yesterday & it said to concentrate on the Ajna Chakra with a Roopam of of the trio of Brahma, Vishnu & Shiva, which I immediately realised is Maa Pratyangira. So yesterday, I tried that during my daily chanting & after the initial burst, I felt exhaustion between the eyebrow points and had to stop, while I continued the chanting. Also, surprisingly, I had rashes over my forehead, which slowly increased & I could feel it forming across my body even as I was sleeping. I did not know if it was because of the session or something I ate? SO I will be trying it today again to see if that is the case. Do you think I am doing something wrong?

Follow as per your guru's direction. Do not chant the mantra without a proper initiation. Mantra Pañcāṅga of Āvaraṇa pūja, stotram, kavacam, paṭala must be followed along with japa for proper realization of any tantric mantra.

It can be recited without Homam.

For advanced tantric mantras a proper initiation from a practicing guru is mandatory. You need to do your research and find an appropriate guru who is willing to take you under their organization and help you with the sādhana. Ideally, one should look for nothing and hope for the grace of the deity. All wishes are automatically granted and there will be peace, health and prosperity to the devotee if and when the mantra gains siddhi. It must be noted that obtaining siddhi and the grace of the deity is extremely difficult and most sādhakas don't achieve it fully. Even then, it is worth the effort as it leads to the spiritual upheaval of the devotee and a better quality of life is realized.

Dear Krishna Ji, Sri Suktam and Durga Suktam, all about homam, the hymn says we do homa. But acctually many peoples only chant it without homa, and recommend others to chant it, even without homa. What we says and what we do is completelly different. It is not deceit God? Thank You Very Much.

And also, one friend of mine told me that I shouldn't recite these bija mantra without a Guru, and diksa, can you please tell me what should I do about that, please help! I am serious and wanna do this jaap religiously

Follow the IAST sequence of the mantras and try to pronounce as written. Do not separate at the vowels and it should be pronounced as a single letter. Think of each letter as an "Ardha mātra".

Turiya should be considered as the 4th stage beyond the triads, a higher state of meditation experienced during samādhi. We don't have the mantra that you are referring to but you may reference any major sādhana books related to the Divine Mother Gāyatrī Devi.
