Imani Christina, affectionately known as Mani Matterz on social media, is a chaos magickian, artist, and founder of the Occulture Academy. She's spent over half of her life dedicated to creative and inspirational work, while simultaneously championing a lifestyle of magick and freedom. As a Tropical Stellium Aquarius, she's always trying to rebel against the current culture, shake it up, so that a brighter one can be reborn. This collective is part of that dream.

Over the last 4 years, the site’s creator and founder have inspired thousands with her honest advice and magickal lifestyle. She aspires to show magicians and witches how to live luxuriously and how to activate their dormant gifts to achieve all of life’s goals. There are plenty of informative articles, metaphysical products, magick services, and resources available for all kinds of practitioners through Matterz Collective.

As more witches and mages rise to the forefront of the mainstream, Imani Christina is taking the perception of magick to the next level. From unconventional tips, tricks, and advice, to her intriguing title of Court Mage, she intends to show the world what it means to live a life of their wildest dreams. Imani’s life is dedicated to being magick and mysticism back into the world on a massive scale.
By tapping into her gifts and bringing her own experiences to the table, Imani shares new perspectives on magick, it's practitioners, and its benefit to the entire blanet. Her goal is to bring the supernatural to the modern world, on an intergalactic scale.

Imani has done readings, sold metaphysical items, offered services, and provided guidance at events all around the city of Philadelphia where she was born and raised, to customers throughout the United States, and to many international clients, where she hoped to make authentic magick accessible for the people in her community.
She’s created a modern magick and mystery school called the Occulture Academy, where she has committed to teaching aspiring seekers and apprentices while continuing her life studies.

Who Are You Really?

I've lived many lifetimes since I was born into this body, and I'll live plenty more once I decide to release it and take on a new one.

First and foremost I am a creator and an artist. When I had nothing else, I always had the ability to create something, and that was the source of all of my gifts. I am a classical trained vocalist. I've played three instruments throughout my life: cello, percussion, and piano. I've performed on internationally-known venues like the Kimmel Center and the Filmore in Philadelphia. I am also a painter and visual artist, and am always making something with my hands.

I am a survivor. I've been through more traumas than I can count, had wounds so deep I thought they'd never heal, and pulled myself out of a mountain of mental illness that sought to bury my six feet beneath the ground.

​I am a magi, seer, spirit medium, and divine conduit. My life has been formed by the belief of magick and the metaphysical, which are fundamental elements to my life purpose, or dharma.

I am a professional Court Mage, and spiritual guide to hundreds of clients around the world.

I have my own magick & mystery school, The Occulture Academy, where students get access to my resources and teachings.
