I first became interested in Thelema when I found the ascii versions of The Equinox that Bill Heidrick (with help from Rusty Sporer, and Fr. H.B.) produced and distributed in the days of BBSs (now available at my good friend Robin's site the-equinox.org). As a teenager in near rural suburban Minnesota, it was amazing to be able to have access to the sort of material that would continue to inspire me even many decades later.

Heidrick's editions, while invaluable, were limited by the technology of the day, most notably he was not able to include the images and diagrams, which are so important to the understanding of the text. To compound the problem, later published editions do not reproduce these diagrams very well, some of which are quite detailed and their low quality makes it impossible to read certain bits of text. Further, certain editions, especially the ascii editions, have many errors in the text itself.

Thus, I am very excited to be able to offer these scans of The Equinox, it is a completing of a circle in a way for me. Since they are scans, the reader will experience what it is like to read the actual pages of The Equinox, complete with accurate text and crisp high-resolution images.

To accomplish this I bought a first edition set of The Equinox from a collector who says that he bought them decades ago at Atlantis Bookshop in London. I bought this on credit and while I can afford to pay it down over time, I'm hoping I might be able to get some assistance from the people who enjoy my work. Below, you can donate money and receive several different rewards in return based on the amount of your donation. You can also support this project by buying print on demand merchandise here.

Subscriber: $50 You will be given access to the thousands of 600 dpi raw scan images that are the basis of this project. The clean black and white images that compose the PDFs on the main page are made by taking these images and performing a bit of Photoshop magic on them. Some people however, will prefer to see the raw unfiltered scans and this is the best way I can make these large files available. Access is given through a google drive folder, so please supply the email address of a google account that you would like to be given access. Your name will also be added to this page if you choose. [via paypal or cc]

Patron: $100+ You believe in this work so much that you want to put your name on it :) Your name will be added to our list of patrons on the credits page attached to every pdf on this site, you will also get access to the raw scans. At the end of every pdf that I produce is a credit page with the URL of this site and a list of all patron level donors. I'll be regenerating the pdfs once a month or so and adding anybody's name who has donated at this level to that list, so its ok if you come in late. Your name will also be added to this page if you choose. Note, the final draft of Number 10 has been submitted and so I can no longer add names to the publisher page for the print on demand edition.

Leave a tip: $1, $5, or $10
If you just want to support my work, you can donate a smaller amount, your help is greatly appreciated. Your name will also be added to this page if you choose.
