Pagan Dawn is a quarterly magazine covering polytheism, esoteric arts, history and the environment. It caters to all those who are interested in nature-based spirituality, philosophy and cultural history and features articles, reviews and research. Its coverage ranges from cutting edge academic thought to people profiles of activists and volunteers.

Originally a newsletter entitled “The Wiccan”, Pagan Dawn has published continually since 1968, making it the longest running esoteric periodical in the world. It was retitled in 1994 to reflect its expanded coverage of all Pagan paths, including Druidry, Shamanism, Heathenry and many more worldwide faiths.

Pagan Dawn is the official magazine of the Pagan Federation and reflects its aims in promoting a positive profile for Paganism and supporting all Pagans to ensure they have the same rights as the followers of other beliefs and religions.

Exclusive to the Pagan Dawn online edition is “We Emerge”, a history of the Pagan Federation, originally produced as a limited edition in the 1990s and features a reproduction of the very first “The Wiccan” newsletter and excerpts from the subsequent 15 years. More exclusive content will be added to each new issue of Pagan Dawn.

Get ready for the sunshine and pour over a collection of engaging pieces written by real people and real practitioners.

Connect to nature and explore a diverse array of ideas, paths and practices in our latest summer edition - dedicated to flora, faith, and fortune. Highlights include exploring ways to invoke the abundance of the Persian goddess Anahita, as well as diving into the enchanting world of fairy moths thanks to an insightful read from The Wildlife Trust.

This issue is teeming with ways to integrate flowers, herbs, and plants into daily life, along with tips on how to connect with them in ways that feel sacred and personal (and even how to protect against unwanted fairy interests and magic).

 

Our regular feature, Diary of a Folk Witch, stirs up some summertime inspiration offering ideas for ritual, foraging, and plant power especially for urban dwellers following a seasonal path.

All this, and a few more treasures tucked away, in another abundant edition of Pagan Dawn. Enjoy!
