What people say after watching
Today was my 1st clear vision. I knew exactly what I was looking at. It actually stayed. … The colors are coming alive. I'm amazed I was capable of do that.
My heart felt like a ball of golden explosion. I saw angels. Wonderful
I have aphantasia and after having a spiritual awakening i remember telling someone i was getting visions that i don't see and receiving messages that i don't hear. … They ignite my brain and they're clarified through imagination.
My feet vibrated very hard and the vibration went up my legs. I felt peace and a bit of joy. Ty❤
Knowing and feeling are the strongest. I’ve experienced hearing, smelling and seeing randomly but if you say, visualize… I see nothing. I assumed I was blocked.
I could feel spirit on the right side of my face and head.
This was powerful! I felt cobwebs on my face and right ear. My face felt like it expanded and there was a huge feeling of peace. I saw a beautiful coloured night sky filled with stars.
My hands tingled, and an exciting calm came over me. I felt connected to something..thank you!
That was absolutely beautiful, I felt so so warm from the Honey. My face was tingling .
Real comments, word for word, from the video on YouTube.
In her own words
“And the truth is people that have aphantasia or cannot actually visualise really clearly are usually super psychic and can be a cleaner and clearer channel than those that are seeing.”
“The world doesn't need more replicas. The world needs your channel in the way that you perceive Spirit and the way that you manifest more.”
“I'm not here to teach you how to be me. I'm here to show you how to be a deeper version of you.”
Questions this video answers
What is aphantasia?
Aphantasia is the inability to form mental images. So when this came into my awareness, it just made so much sense for those clients that are coming to me going, I cannot visualise. But there is other ways that we can connect into. So the feeler is clairsentience, and then we've got the knower, which is claircognizance, and the hearer, which is clairaudience. Now these clairs are very powerful.
Can you be a medium if you can't visualise?
We've been conditioned to believe that psychic equals seeing, and it truly isn't the case. The truth is people that have aphantasia or cannot actually visualise really clearly are usually super psychic, and can be a cleaner and clearer channel than those that are seeing. Because the truth is when we are seeing things we can get kind of a little bit distracted, and often when I am doing channelling I will close my eyes down so I can hyperfocus on what I am actually feeling.
How do the clairs work together?
Sometimes we will struggle in one area or another, but it's like the body, right? We can have a stronger upper body or a stronger lower body, but we have a whole body. Sometimes we favour different muscles. And it's the same with the clairs. They are like muscles. But like I said before, if you are finding it hard to visualise, then you're probably a lot more in tune with your other clairs.
Do you need a vision board to manifest?
Vision boards are not for everybody, but everyone can feel into what feels light and expansive and abundant for them. And this is the trick when it comes to connecting into your manifestations and to Spirit. Instead, they might want to sit there and just feel into it. Feel into what it feels like to be standing on stage and giving messages to those that have lost loved ones. When it comes to manifestation, it is the sensing and the hearing and the knowing.

Can a monkey cut hair?
I remember a beautiful friend of mine who was also a mentor, and at some stage he was my boss. He was a hairdresser. He was a deacon. He was an opera singer. He was literally just this phenomenal man. We were family, right?
When I was going through my apprenticeship, I went to him for some advice and I said, look, I just don't know if I can do this. I was going through a bit of a dark night of the soul. And he had this picture of a monkey on the wall, and he was like cutting the monkey's hair, right? I always wondered why that picture was there.
And he said to me, do you think that a monkey could cut hair? And I was like, I don't know. And he said, yes, but a monkey would cut every single person's hair exactly the same. You can teach a monkey how to cut hair, but they don't have the ability like the human to style it, and tune into what is correct for the person whose hair they're cutting.
“When he said that to me, it made me realise that I had a uniqueness.”
I was struggling to watch how somebody else was cutting hair, and this is why I was struggling, because I could watch it 20,000 times and still didn't get it. Now, of course, eventually I did get it once I started doing it. We all learn and perceive differently. And if it wasn't for that beautiful man sharing that amazing story with me, I don't know if I would have kept going.
Your gifts aren’t blocked. You may just be overriding them.
In my free masterclass, The Mediumship Frequency, I’ll show you why the message gets messy on the way through, and the sixty second practice that changes it. Watch it tonight, as often as you like.

Money manifestations and mediumship have more in common than you think. You don't have to see Spirit to connect into Spirit. And you don't have to see your manifestations, money, prosperity, and abundance to create it. So today in this video, we're going to be talking about manifesting your dreams, manifesting abundance, prosperity, and connecting to Spirit with no sight. There's a little word that I want to talk about. Aphantasia.
Buckle up because today is going to be a biggie. Maybe every time somebody asks you a question to visualise something or to picture a face of somebody that you used to know or doing a vision board or connecting in with Spirit in a meditation. Maybe you are just like this does not work for me. And this will literally lead us to thinking that we are blocked.
We're doing this wrong. Or maybe we're just not cut out for this. Maybe we're down the wrong pathway. Look, you're not alone if this resonates with you. There is a little word called aphantasia. It's an actual thing. And I experienced this in my mediumship certification where people come to me and they go, I can't see. I want to see. And they literally make a whole lot of mistaken beliefs of how they're not psychic because they can't see.
But there's only one tiny part of the equation. And today we're going to be doing a visualisation where you're not going to have to see it all. So like I say, it's a tiny part of mediumship. We've got clairsentience, clairvoyance, clairaudience, claircognizance. There's all of these clairs. We are a sensory being, not just a visual being. So, are you ready to go a little bit deeper and maybe find out some stuff about you that you didn't even know?
That's what we're going to do in this video. As well as tuning into your manifestation codes, abundance, prosperity is all available for you. And you don't need a vision board to do it. At the end of this video, you're going to understand your gifts so much deeper. You're going to have a clearer understanding about you and where you want to go. And I'm also going to give you three steps that you can utilise from today, which is going to help you to manifest all of the things that you've been dreaming about and connecting to Spirit.
We've been conditioned to believe that psychic equals seeing, and it truly isn't the case. Now, why do I repeat this so much in my YouTube trainings? It is because we are so programmed to believe that seeing is believing. We've all heard that one. Or seeing equals psychic. And the truth is people that have aphantasia or cannot actually visualise really clearly are usually super psychic and can be a cleaner and clearer channel than those that are seeing. Why is this?
Because the truth is when we are seeing things we can get kind of a little bit distracted and often when I am doing channelling I will close my eyes down so I can hyperfocus on what I am actually feeling. So seeing isn't always the strongest when it comes to the clairs. In fact I teach my mediums how to tune in without utilising their eyes and just coming into the somatics of the body. So, if you've been experiencing a lack of seeing, you may be a whole lot more psychic than you ever gave yourself credit for.
Now, how does this work with manifestation? Vision boards are not for everybody, but everyone can feel into what feels light and expansive and abundant for them. And this is the trick when it comes to connecting into your manifestations and to Spirit. The world doesn't need more replicas. The world needs your channel in the way that you perceive Spirit and the way that you manifest more. This creates so much more for the collective consciousness.
And then people stop judging themselves for how they are perceiving. I remember a beautiful friend of mine who was also a mentor and at some stage he was my boss. He was a hairdresser. He was a deacon. He was an opera singer. He was literally just this phenomenal man. We were family, right? I even lived with him at some stage. When I was going through my apprenticeship, I went to him for some advice and I said, look, I just don't know if I can do this.
I was going through a bit of a dark night of the soul, and he said to me, Victoria. And he had this picture of a monkey on the wall, some type of monkey, and he was like cutting the monkey's hair, right? I always wondered why that picture was there. And he said to me, do you think that a monkey could cut hair? And I was like, I don't know. And he said, yes, but a monkey would cut every single person's hair exactly the same.
You can teach a monkey how to cut hair, but they don't have the ability like the human to style it and like tune into what is correct for the person whose hair they're cutting. And that kind of made me think, well, when it comes to our spiritual gifts, we are not one type of species. We are multi dimensional beings who use energy and intuition first. A little bit different to animals. They have senses but we are literally chemically made completely different and we must use our creativity but it's not always in the form of vision.
So when my great friend Terry said that to me, it made me realise that I had a uniqueness. And I was struggling to watch how somebody else was cutting hair, and this is why I was struggling, because I could watch it 20,000 times and still didn't get it. Now, of course, eventually I did get it once I started doing it. We all learn and perceive differently. And if it wasn't for that beautiful man sharing that amazing story with me, I don't know if I would have kept going.
So, I'm here today to try to help inspire you and empower you and to hopefully give you a little bit of social proof, some confidence, maybe a little bit of borrowed evidence to go maybe I can manifest my dreams, prosperity, money, energy, love, joy, and maybe I could connect into my psychic abilities, but do it in a way that is so unique. And I cannot wait to tell you about the story of my beautiful client Evelyn, who was experiencing the lack of vision, and the confidence that she built in Magnificent Mediumship once we started unlocking her abilities. But first, aphantasia is the inability to form mental images. And honestly, I've always been super visual. So I haven't gone searching to find out what this means.
So when this came into my awareness, it just made so much sense for those clients that are coming to me going, I cannot visualise. But there is other ways that we can connect into. So the feeler is clairsentience, and then we've got the knower, which is claircognizance, and the hearer, which is clairaudience. Now these clairs are very powerful and I truly believe and what I teach in Magnificent Mediumship is we are all clairs. Okay?
Sometimes we will struggle in one area or another, but it's like the body, right? We can have a stronger upper body or a stronger lower body, but we have a whole body. So, we have to utilise all parts. Sometimes we favour different muscles. And it's the same with the clairs. They are like muscles. But like I said before, if you are finding it hard to visualise, then you're probably a lot more in tune with your other clairs.
And I really want to invite you into coming in and seeing what you are good at, what you are practiced at, because this will help build confidence, and little by little you start expanding. So you become one well oiled machine, for lack of a better expression. You become one ecosystem of clairsentience. So the seeing and the knowing and the feeling and the hearing becomes one big story. It's like when you are watching a movie.
You're not just watching the one character. You end up watching all of the characters and literally getting a relationship with all of them and it creates this whole movie, a whole story. And this is exactly what happens with your psychic abilities and your manifestation skills. So when it comes to manifestation, I can do a vision board. In fact, I prefer to do that. I can get pictures and put them all over the walls and trust me on my wall behind there is so many cool things that I'm manifesting right now.
But that doesn't work for everybody. Instead, they might want to sit there and just feel into it. Feel into what it feels like to be standing on stage and giving messages to those that have lost loved ones. Or maybe like listening to songs or hearing their own voice and realising that is actually messages from Spirit. When it comes to manifestation, it is the sensing and the hearing and the knowing.
You know the things that you want like the money or the abundance, the prosperity, the travelling, the lover, the body that's healthy. You know what you want. That's claircognizance, right? So when we start, like I say, the well oiled machine, the whole ecosystem, when we start playing with it and moving through it, rather than focusing on what we do not have, we focus on what we have. This will fuel the other parts of the system. So, you go to the gym and you're working on your arms, like I said before, and literally you're going to get the urge to keep going down the body, and you can't just be fit on the top and unfit on the bottom.
It's just like your clairs. You are stretching the muscles. You're working the muscles and they activate one another. Does that make sense? I would love to hear from you guys. Pop it down in the chat box. What is resonating with you? What is your strongest clair? I would love to know.
Is it knowing, seeing, feeling, or hearing? I would love to know what that is for you. I honestly used to define it too much before I started really getting into my mediumship abilities. I used to define it by thinking I don't see anything, so I'm not gifted. And truly, that is the biggest mistake ever. Thank goodness I changed my perspective. So, I mentioned my client Evelyn. So, I've had many students that come to me, and they literally come to like week two or three of Magnificent Mediumship and they're like, imposter syndrome.
I don't know if I'm meant to be here. I feel like I'm failing because I'm not seeing. And Evelyn was definitely one of these students of mine. So this is when the aphantasia came in and we realised, hey, just because you're not visualising doesn't mean you're not gifted. She knew it. And when I basically flipped the script and said, can we look at this through a different lens, through a different perspective, we were actually able to pick up on what she was doing rather than what she wasn't doing.
Because that's super important, right? It's way more expansive, looking at your gifts rather than looking at what you are not. And what we realised was her ability, her clairsentience, was so powerful. She went to the field one day where her child was playing sports. It was like a sports day or whatever. And she could feel the whole entire field and all the people on it and all of the energy.
And she was like, I can feel all of this. So, I might just do like a mass reiki. So, she literally did a healing for hundreds of people on the field. I don't know exactly how many there were, but she said it was a sports day at her kids' like school and they were on a field. And she said, I felt the healing. I felt the connection and I know what I did made a big difference that day. So when she stopped focusing on how she had a lack of vision, a lack of creativity, and I showed her the gift that she did have, and then she experienced it, just like when my mentor was saying to me, hey, Victoria, can a monkey cut hair? Right?
And I watched what felt like 2,800 haircuts, and I couldn't learn until I did it and got my hands in there and started implementing the haircuts, like a channel, right? That was my own unique genius to the world. Whether it's hairdressing, whether it's psychic mediumship, whether it's coaching, whether it's your teaching, or whatever trade you want to bring in, whatever type of career, your unique gift is weaved through. So, I'm so happy that Evelyn was able to acknowledge the power that she had to desire to help heal others and bring her energy out and that knowing that she had. The minute she stopped focusing on the third eye and the visions and started coming into the claircognizance, the clairsentience, she started even hearing things, and she started being so much more confident, and she started even talking to me about starting a website and having all these different practitioners that you can go to. It was amazing.
Her confidence skyrocketed out of this world. So that is intuition. That is Spirit connection. And this is exactly how we can magnetise our manifestation. And that is enough. It is enough to be able to see what you have and then expand on it. But I did it because I loved it. Okay, I loved being a hairdresser. I thought I'd be a hairdresser until the day I retired type of thing.
But it was really interesting because I was making such a small amount of money and I felt like I was always in a struggle even though I was doing what I enjoyed. The problem is I couldn't even perceive having money, having more than enough money. And I actually used to say I always have just enough money. Until one of my mentors said, if we say we have just enough money, or everything happens for me and I always just have enough, that's all you will ever have. And I was like, so then I started saying, I always have more than enough.
I always have so much that there is so much left over. I can be generous and give and I create time and space so I can bring my gifts out to the world. The more I started doing this verbally and feeling it and visualising the stage, and again, you do not have to visualise the stage. Maybe you just feel it. And you know, maybe you know it.
Maybe you're listening to music that is really like inspiring and gets your energy going. Okay, utilising the resources that you have. My bank account started filling up. People started finding me from all around the world. I started gaining and getting energy as well as confidence. Now fear always stuck around. Fear always stuck around and fear and love do coexist because we are here to stretch and learn as human beings.
And this is something I see with my clients all the time is I see people wanting to stop and go that's enough. That's enough. I'm at my capacity. And then what I do is I gently stretch their capacity with them to be able to receive more. So energetically with our manifestations, we only have as much as we can handle. So many go, I'm ready. So many people say, I'm ready. Where is it? And I'm like, you're not willing to receive it.
And I'm like, you're not willing to receive it. You're not utilising the clairs that are within your reach. You're looking at what you do not have. Another example is looking at the outgoings and the lack rather than looking at what you could create and bring in. Focusing on income instead of outgoings. Simple, huh? Does this resonate with you? Let me know. Is this landing?
I want you to put landing in the comments if this resonates with you. And very soon, we're going to do this beautiful activation that I've promised you. So, stay around. So, I could talk about this for hours, but for time's sake, I want to ask you a question. Are you doing everything you can do to create your manifestations and to bring your magic out into the world?
Are you living your very best life? Are you on the edge of jumping? Are you a little bit scared? If not, let's turn up those dreams. I want you to be scared. I want you to be edgy. I want you to be sitting there going, I'm at capacity. I wonder if I could stretch a little bit more. And this is why I highly recommend coaches and mentors because when you're working with someone that is doing what you want to do in some way, shape or form, they have literally walked in your shoes and they can tell you what that next step is with ease.
So rather than going on this massive big journey, they are your bridge. And you are the bridge for somebody else. This goes both ways. We have mentors and we be mentors in whatever way that works for you. So, are you ready to do this visualisation? Are you ready to expand your capacity? Are you ready to bring in your manifestations to magnetise your manifestations to literally embrace your gifts?
I'm so excited about this session today. So manifesting and magnetising and literally acknowledging your abilities because you're already perfect. You're already divine. I knew there was nothing wrong with Evelyn. Sure, she had some challenges with visualisation, like millions of people all around the world. You don't have to see it to believe it, but you have to have faith in magic, faith in love, faith in what is coming your way because the world is working for you. So is God.
So is the universe. It's working for you. So you get to activate your gifts and bring them out into the world. So are you ready? Are you ready? Give me a ready down below and let's get into today's activation. All righty. So, I invite you to go find a space that is quiet where you will be undisturbed.
We're going to be together for the next few minutes as we dive into your manifestations and your ability to connect into mediumship, your psychic channels, and your intuition. So, you might want to get a blanket, a drink, find somewhere you can lie down or sit with your back supported. And when you're ready, I invite you to close down your eyes and take a nice deep breath into your belly. And as you breathe out your mouth, let all of the words from today just drop down and fall down into the ground. You can pick them back up later again.
Deep breath in, filling up your belly and breathing out and down into relaxation. Beautiful. I invite you to do a body scan from the top of your head all the way down to your toes. Just like I'm touching with my magic wand, visualising warm honey just falling down around you as your whole body relaxes. Doing a body scan and melting any part of your body that has tension, tightness, or stickiness.
Just like warm honey is going through your entire body as you're melting down into relaxation from the top of your head all the way down to your toes. That's it. You are safe. You are guided. You are loved. And you are protected. And now I want you to come into your heart space. If you want to put your hands on your heart, you can. Otherwise, you can just visualise that your heart space is there.
As you come down into relaxation, I want you to feel your breath come into your heart. Feel your breath coming down into your heart. And that heart is now expanding. And if you cannot feel anything, just know that you are expanding your energy, the warmth and the gratitude through your body. What are you grateful for today? Find something that you're grateful for today. And this is going to help to accelerate the expansion through the heart space through the entire body.
You know that you're expanding your energy, feeling into the gratitude, knowing that you were grateful, even putting a little smile on your face as you relax down deeper. This energy is now working through your body. Gratitude is a healer. So every molecule and cell right now is healing your body. You are self healing your entire vessel. Yes. And just dropping deeper down into relaxation. Perfect. Whatever you are thinking or feeling or knowing is perfect.
I invite you to say out loud or in your mind space, I release the pressure to see. I give myself permission to feel. I give myself permission to know. I give myself permission to hear Spirit. I give myself permission to perceive in my own way. Drop into your body deeper. Relax even further. Feeling into that breath as you're breathing in and breathing out. And now we're going to expand our energy to fill the entire room.
Just knowing that you are doing this automatically. Expanding your energy to fill the entire room. Expanding out further to fill up the whole entire house property. Expanding to fill up the town, suburb, city. Expanding to fill up the country. Expanding to fill up the world around the world and through the world and all the way out to the cosmos. Noticing what you notice in your divine uniqueness.
And now we are going to ask Spirit, let me feel your presence in my own unique way. Notice any sensations. Where does your body react? What emotion is rising within you? What truth has appeared quietly but clearly? We repeat, let me feel your presence in my own unique way. Notice the sensation. Where does your body react? What emotion is rising up?
What truth has appeared quietly but clearly? Your somatic awareness is a receiver. You may notice chills, pressure, temperature. You may even notice tingles. Your deep knowing is not a thought. It's within the body. Sound and emotion, tuning into that. Now, as Spirit often moves through noises, vibration, and you will notice this through frequency shifts. You may even hear random words or have a reoccurring part of a song going over and over in your mind.
All is welcome here. Now I want you to say out loud or within your mind space, I am connected. My gifts are real. My way is more than enough. Just allowing it all to anchor in, to shift anything that needs to be shifted, to reprogram the mind, for the highest good of you and all. Allowance of your unique gift in the world. How would it feel to manifest all that you are dreaming of? Think bigger. Feel bigger.
Know that there is so much more out there for you. Whether you're turning up your intuitive abilities or learning to activate them, the world has got your back. You have got your back. Together, we rise as unique beings. Gently, gently bringing your awareness back into your body from wherever you have drifted. Allowing yourself to notice what you feel within the body as you come back to the body.
Staying expanded, wriggling your fingers and your toes. And when you are ready, opening your eyes, blinking them open, and finding something yellow in your room or having a look at your palms to bring yourself back fully totally into your body. Welcome back. Take your time. That was pretty deep. A lot of reprogramming of the subconscious there. What came through for you? Did you feel a shift? Did you feel a vibrational shift?
Maybe frequency in the air or an expansion. Maybe you just knew something was happening. Quite often my lips will vibrate or my eye will twitch, and I'm like, what is happening? But I know that I'm receiving, even if I'm not seeing. So you're not blocked. And I really hope that you just got yourself some evidence of that and even turned up those abilities a bit more and had some anchors of what you've learned today.
So, I'm really curious. Pop it in the chat. Let me know. I love to hear from you. What came through for you today? What are the awarenesses that you've had today? What did you feel? What did you learn about your gifts? What do you now know that you can take forward into your everyday life?
And of course, who can you share this with? I always recommend when I'm doing teachings to share with someone that you love to write it down in your journal because having a witness saying it out loud or writing it down will literally anchor it in for your mind for your body but also the universe can hear it. It becomes real. So I'd love to hear from you what that is. And also please know that this will keep unfolding as the days come by.
So this has been a little snippet, a little taster of what we do in Magnificent Mediumship. If you are spiritually aligned, if you are soul led and if you have ambition and drive to be more, to do more, to have more, you can be, do, and have it all. If you can think it, you can have it. If you can visualise it, you can have it. If you can hear it, you can have it.
If you know it, you can have it. Magnificent Mediumship goes deeper into what it is that you are here to do with your unique gift. You get to build clarity and confidence. You get to step out into the world as more of who you are. I'm not here to teach you how to be me. I'm here to show you how to be a deeper version of you. Whether you're a coach, a mum, whether you're a school teacher, an accountant, a lawyer, whether you're a psychic medium, Magnificent Mediumship will help you turn up all of your gifts and so you can embrace and harness what is uniquely you.
