Julia Seton
New Thought Metaphysics Teacher and Author
Julia Seton (also Kapp and Sears; 1862–1950) was an American physician, lecturer and author. After graduating from medical school and working as a physician, Seton modernized the concept of "the Science of Names and Numbers" to what is referred to today as numerology, and it is through her work that numerology became known by the general public.
Julia Lorinda Seton was born in Illinois, December 27, 1862. Her parents were Israel Marion and Jane Rhoda (Dickerson) Seton. She was educated in the schools of Cleveland, Ohio, and Boston, Massachusetts. Subsequently, to teaching for five years in Ohio, She studied medicine, and in 1898, was graduated M.D. at Gross Medical University (now, University of Colorado School of Medicine), Denver, Colorado. She pursued a post-graduate course in 1902–03 at Tufts Medical College, Boston.
Seton practiced as a medical physician until 1903. Having been successful from childhood in applying subjective laws to objective expressions, her desire to deal more with the cause than with the effect impelled her to follow her inclinations and devote her life to metaphysical work. Beginning with a small class in Huntington Chambers, Boston, in 1904, she took larger quarters in Richards Hall a few months later.
In 1906, she went to New York City and commenced teaching and lecturing in a studio in Carnegie Hall. These quarters soon became inadequate for the Sunday service and in 1908, the Belasco Theatre was leased. In 1910, quarters were secured in the New York American building. That same year, Seton went to Europe and established in London the First New Thought Church and School of London.
Seton was the founder of the New Thought Summer School at the Home of the New Civilization, Oscawana-on-the-Hudson, New York. This was a school for students, post-graduate philosophers, scientists, metaphysicians, psychologists, and mystics.
Seton lectured at the League for the Larger Life in Washington, D.C., in 1923 after having completed a trip around the world covering a period of two years in which she visited every continent.
Seton's power of expression helped her to attain an enviable position as a writer of metaphysical literature. She was a prolific author of more than a dozen books. Her magazine articles appeared in Nautilus, Reality, Success, Aquarian Age, Rally (London), Liberty (Australia), and Woman's Way (New Zealand).
