The Equinox: A Journal of Scientific Illuminism was edited and published by the occultist, poet and magician Aleister Crowley.

It can be perhaps be best summed up by the opening article, repeated below.

There is no god but man.

Man has the right to live by his own laws - to live in the way that he wills to do: to work as he will: to play as he will: to rest as he will: to die when and how he will.

Man has the right to eat what he will: to drink what he will: to dwell where he will: to move as he will on the face of the earth.

Man has the right to think what he will: to speak what he will: to write what he will: to draw, paint, carve, mould, build as he will: to dress as he will.

Man has the right to love as he will.

Man has the right to kill those who thwart these rights.

Aleister Crowley, 1922.
