Sally Morgan: Star Psychic.

[FarSideOfTheMoon]

Reading well-known people is kind of a win-win situation for her.

She gets more publicity and there is so much information in the public domain that she can't fail to look impressive.

Any psychic who does readings for the stars seems to garner a lot more respect among the believers, and no doubt can raise their fees accordingly.

No, its not a bogus post- I put it on both sites because I thought that people ought to know what really went on instead of just speculating.

I answered an advert asking for people to take part in the series so I thought what the hell, I will. To be honest with you, I didnt watch much of the show on TV, but I presume that the filming they did with me and the other people was aired- I was one of the people in the confessional box set up (done so that Sally couldn't see you and your reactions).

So they knew your name and address well in advance, and when you turned up, they chose you to be on the programme.
I wonder how much could be found out about you (or an average person) from name and address?

What could have been interesting would be if you'd sent someone else in your place, and seen if the reading fitted you better than them.

I watched Sally Morgan last night for the first time I was amazed it was so clever then I found your site today and watched the vidio. Very clever I was conned like many others I am sure.

I would like to contact Sally Morgan and If anyone has her contact details please can you let me know by leaving a message or any other way of communication... Thank you. Regards Dimple

Surely she'd know if you were trying to contact her, what with her being a genuine psychic and everything?

I tried emailing her a while back to tell her how disgusted I was with one of her readings which revealed the subject had been raped. It was either in very bad taste or completely staged.

I used a facility on her website but I think the email got returned. She never sensed her email link was broken surprisingly enough.

If you aren't emailing to let her know how dispicable her act is, I wouldn't bother. She is a complete fake.

Why do you want to contact her?

[FarSideOfTheMoon]

A thousand and one people would appear to want to meet her:

I am married to a very beautiful philipino wife and have been for 12 years and have two great boys. She met someone through the internet and i found out now because i spoiled it all for her she says she hates me and has no feelings for me anymore. My heart is breaking as i love her very much and would like to have a reading from a picture of her and find out why my life has come to such a drastic end. Her sister died last year and she seems to have changed so drasticly . She seems to have lost all focus on where her life is going and wants to go out with younger men and do things she never did before we got married. Please Please help i will be so lost without her.

june said hello, i lost a sister many years ago ,and at that young age i was left confused and angry, at the age of 18 yrs i lost my first born son ,again angry and confused, life has not been easy but i went on to become a useful member of society, now not sure which way my life is going, sally can you help

talie said Hi, my friend has recently lost her 11 year old son and is having difficulty coming to terms with the loss. We watched the show the other night and was amazed. She desperatly needs your help in order for her to feel at ease, answer some of her questions and to know that her son is at peace and happy. Please would it be possible for her to have a reading to help her through the difficult times.

And a lot more besides. If this isn't a reminder of why we need to constantly challenge these psychic morons, I don't know what is.

I just can't imagine how devastated some of these people would be if they knew the truth.

Jocky,

"This is the only reliable method of distinguishing between real and make-believe. Anybody who successfully did this would become rich and famous beyond their wildest dreams."

True. But have you noticed how none of them are in it for the money?
They don't want to get rich.
They just want to help people.

Yeah, and I just want to swim the English channel.

[Zaira]

FarSideOfTheMoon,

That was heartbreaking to read. So much pain and pleading.
My heart goes out to them all.

I feel angry. The way I now see it is that if Psychics can do what they claim, then why don't they just get out there and do everything they can to alleviate some of the suffering?

It's okay, I already know why.
Because they are too busy trying to make a name for themselves.

I think, if I was a psychic, I would be ashamed to admit it.


This is all I can do....

That's why I asked why Rani wanted to contact Sally.

These psychics interfere in people's lives often when they are at their lowest and most vulnerable.

I think seeking the advice of such an individual in a time of desperation is, to say the least, inappropriate.

"One of the most alarming things about the mediumistic racket is how completely some people put their lives into the hands of ill-educated, emotionally unbalanced individuals who claim a hotline to heaven...That people who ask such questions of a medium are risking their mental, moral, and monetary health is a shocking but quite accurate description of the matter."

helping people psychically is not about riches or fame...I'm not sure where you get that idea from

Was interested to hear what you thought of Sally....

[Admin]

Well I make no bones about the fact that I think this series she has on TV is probably researched, scripted and highly edited: a complete sham.

There's just too much of a Goldilocks Effect - everything is 'just right'.

Far too good to be true.

[FarSideOfTheMoon]

If she is doing it psychically, then she is doing it the hard way. Much easier to use Wikipedia for some of her guests.

The clip over at Bad Psychics when she 'reads' Liz McClarnon has a blatent edit in the middle. She starts to say one thing, but it is then edited to say another. On that alone, it is a bit suspicious, but add in the hot and cold reading and it is obviously a sham.

helping people psychically is not about riches or fame

Claims of high-minded altruistic motives made by some psychics is an interesting phenomenon. There are basically two ways you can look at this:

1. The "psychic" is a crook, who knows that s/he does not truly possess any paranormal abilities but claims the moral high ground in a cynical act of deliberate deception to lure credulous 'marks' (and of course to avoid the "Why don't you claim Randi's million?" question)

2. The "psychic" is an honest person, who is genuinely motivated by a desire to help people and truly believes that they have paranormal abilities which can achieve this goal

IMO, both of these things go on. Of course, which motive applies is totally irrelevant to whether or not the claimed psychic abilities actually exist. Someone being honest and sincere in their beliefs has no bearing on whether or not those beliefs are accurate.

It seems to me that claiming to be altruistic is only really credible if the person concerned does not gain any (significant) income from giving readings. Someone who actually makes a living doing this is inevitably going to be on a rather sticky wicket giving readings if they claim not to be in it for the money.

Sarah mentions fame. Becoming prominent is another form of remuneration - for some people, for whatever reason, it is even more desirable that mere money. Anybody who goes out of their way to broadcast their psychic readings to a wide audience, even if they are not being paid for them directly, are effectively seeking renumeration in kind for their efforts. Such behaviour belies a totally altruistic motive, as someone who truly just "wanted to help" could do so effectively simply through private communication with the individuals concerned.

If you perform a service for renumeration (of any kind), you should be able to show that the services you offer are effective as advertised. It is reasonable to conclude that anybody who cannot do this is behaving in a deceitful manner. If they were jobbing builders, I'd call them "Cowboys". If they are psychics, I call them Frauds.
