Psychic who ‘predicted Covid’ says 2026 will deliver ‘thriller sickness’ and Trump’s downfall
Nicolas Aujula, 39, a hypnotherapist, also predicts there will be a public scandal involving Prince Harry and Meghan. He foresees the rise of AI-generated films too
A self-proclaimed psychic who claims he predicted Covid-19 has shared his 2026 predictions – which include Donald Trump ’s “downfall” and a “mysterious illness”.
Nicolas Aujula, 39, also predicts there will be a public scandal involving the Duke and Duchess of Sussex. The hypnotherapist, who lives in west London, said he realised he had psychic abilities at the age of 17 after experiencing visions of his “past lives”. These included being an Egyptian queen, a nun in the Himalayas and a seamstress in China.
Since then, he claims to have accurately foreseen events such as Covid-19, the Black Lives Matter movement, Trump winning the US election, the rise of artificial intelligence, and the separation of Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom.
Looking ahead to 2026, he is warning of a “mysterious illness” causing symptoms similar to an aneurism, alongside “youth-led” protests and revelations involving “aliens and UFO contact”.
He predicts an increase in earthquake and volcanic activity across Turkey, Greece, the Pacific and Asia, as well as a “dangerous storm event” and tighter global travel restrictions. And he foresees Hollywood being “hit with lots of defamation cases”, the introduction of AI-generated films, and Angelina Jolie making a major comeback.
He said: “As a teenager I entered a deep trance state and began to see vivid flashes – images of myself as an Egyptian queen, a nun in the Himalayas, a seamstress in China, a witch doctor in Africa, even a lion. In that moment, I had an overwhelming sense that I had lived many lives before and gathered countless experiences.
“That experience led to a deep realisation – that death is not the end, that there is nothing to fear, and that our souls are eternal, returning in different forms to continue learning and experiencing life. It was surreal, peaceful, and utterly life-changing.”
Nicolas said he realised he had psychic abilities at the age of 17, after experiencing visions of his “past lives”. He said “within days” of this he left college and began pursuing a career in hypnotherapy and “past-life regression”, with the aim of helping others explore and understand their own past-life experiences.
Since then, he claims to have received predictions about future events through dreams, symbols and his “inner voice”. He said: “My visions aren’t something I can control. Often, they’re symbolic rather than literal, which means they require interpretation to uncover their deeper meaning.”
Looking back on 2024, he says he anticipated Donald Trump winning the US election and a rise in artificial intelligence, which have both materialised. When his visions align with real-world events, he said he finds it “very validating”.
He envisages the UK experiencing its hottest summer ever in 2026, bringing extreme heatwaves and nationwide water rationing. However, he also described a vision of “electric sparks flying and it going dark”, leading him to believe there could be a “dangerous storm event” that may impact “power grids”.
In terms of global travel, he anticipates increased travel bans and restrictions, with countries becoming stricter on border control.
Within the entertainment industry, Nicolas foresees Hollywood being “hit with lots of defamation cases”, after seeing a vision of “the word defamation” appearing near the Hollywood sign. In addition to this, he believes AI-generated films and television programmes will begin to be produced.
Politically, he predicts the rise of “brutal government regimes” worldwide. And he said he saw Trump falling while disembarking from a plane, which he believes could either be literal or symbolise his “downfall”.
Nicolas believes there will be a leak from a former member of staff involving Harry and Meghan, which could spark a public scandal. He added: “I saw an image of an angry Meghan who felt betrayed, I could sense it was someone close to her.”
