Not paginated. but each issue approx. 24pp plus printed wrappers, thus approx. 170pp. Each in coloured stapled illustrated wrappers. Called by the editor "A magazine devoted to the understanding of the new age philosophies that exist in the world today" and later, "The Journal of Independent Paganism", this magazine emerged in 1988 from the earlier "New Equinox" also edited by Keith Morgan, the name change adopted to avoid continuing confusion by readers between Morgan's magazine and the earlier "New Equinox" published in the late 1970s by Ray Sherwin and Tony Venables to which it is unrelated, but bore the same name. Each issue of Deosil Dance includes essays by various authors, book reviews, letters and adverts. Its content covers subjects relating to neo-pagan witchcraft, magick, etc. including occasional references to Crowley, and - in the 1980s issues - some material on the "satanic panic" that threatened the British occult community. Although not marked as such, from the library of English bibliophile and Aleister Crowley scholar Nicholas Bishop-Culpeper. A few inked notes from the editor to Culpeper in some of the issues. Cheap 'fanzine' type production values. Light rubbing, creasing and fading to covers, else a tight, clean VG set. Item #62497
