Claude-Generated Themes:   Spiritual Science Magazine was the organ of the National Federation of Spiritual Science Churches in Los Angeles, a Spiritualist denomination whose pages carry Sunday-school lessons, New-Year forecasts and Christ-centered devotion. Its identity is tri-partite: a Spiritualist core of mediumship and spirit-control, a substantial occult and esoteric layer running to magic, adepts and tarot, and a New Thought overlay of the silence, affirmation and demonstration. The blend is characteristic of mid-century Californian metaphysical churches, where Spiritualist practice, Western esotericism and mind-power teaching sat comfortably under one roof.
