Simon Turnbull
Simon Scott Turnbull (10 May 1950 – 6 November 2014) was an entrepreneur in the Australian psychic industry, a self-proclaimed psychic and writer on parapsychology who had been researching telepathy and precognition and other so-called paranormal areas of expertise for over forty years. Since 1975 he had appeared on many television programs discussing psychic matters and debating with skeptics about the perceived value of following ones intuition. He was the President of the Australian Psychics Association (APA), a Master Mason, an authority on tarot, and a practicing astrologer. He was the co-founder of the International Psychics Association.
==Psychic beginnings==
In 1970 Turnbull began delving into psychic research by visiting a professional psychic, Brian Zodemsky, a former Catholic priest, for a psychic reading. Zodemsky told him he was involved with two women who shared the same name. This was true; he was going out with two women called Rhonda (one of whom he subsequently married). Turnbull immediately stopped the reading and asked Zodemsky how he did that. Zodemsky promptly began to teach his method of reading the tarot. After going to a local spiritualist church to learn mediumship, he found himself looking for spirits in ex-Prime Minister Paul Keating's newly acquired house. Turnbull soon began giving psychic readings on a part-time basis whilst still maintaining his musical career.
Turnbull made his first television appearance as a psychic in 1975 on Australia’s ‘The Mike Walsh Show', which was telecast live nationally. Mike Walsh asked him to demonstrate psychometry, which is the supposed ability to read the life of the owner of an object held by the psychic. Turnbull received the name 'Hilda'. The owner of the watch then told the audience that Hilda was her sister, and she was sitting right next to her in the audience. They had both been arguing as to who would give their watch to host Mike Walsh before the show. In 1975 Turnbull also met Israeli psychic Uri Geller for the first time, who was then touring Australia, and Turnbull would later edit a book with him. Spoonbending is a form of psychokinesis – the ability to influence an object with the mind.
