This was the successor of the very popular El Siglo Espirita, whose volume numbering it continued. Like it, the journal was founded by the Junta Central that convened the First (1906) and Second (1908) Mexican Spiritist Congresses. It is notable because Francisco I. Madero contributed to it (continuing his translation of and commentary on the Bhagavad Gita he had begun in Cruz Astral) and edited it for a time. On his election as president in 1911 his photo graced the cover of the journal. While primarily a spiritualist journal (with notable photographs of materializations and ectoplasm) the journal also carried regular articles on hypnotism and occultism generally, including Rogelo Fernandez Guell’s "Magia y el espiritismo en las obras de William Shakespeare." Mario Roso de Luna was a regular contributor. University of Texas, Austin; Fondo Reservado de la Hemeroteca Nacional de Mexico.
