Witchcraft + Pagan Periodicals Archive
A place to discover what existed, read what's been preserved, and find inspiration in the unconventional art, spirit, and community of Pagan publishing—from the 1960s counterculture to the early internet age.
The Witchcraft & Pagan Periodicals Archive is a volunteer-led initiative dedicated to documenting the publishing history of modern witchcraft, Paganism, Druidry, Faerie traditions, Goddess spirituality, occultism, and related spiritual movements. Through researched publication records, historical context, and links to surviving copies held by digital repositories and collections, WAPPA makes these magazines, newsletters, journals, and zines easier to discover, explore, and access.
​
While the archive is still under development, this website serves as a growing directory of publications, a gateway to existing collections, and a place for researchers, collectors, practitioners, and the curious to contribute knowledge, discover resources, and help preserve this rich publishing history.

Project Status
WAPPA is a growing, volunteer-supported project. We are currently focused on researching and documenting the publications in the collection, creating more detailed archival pages, and locating missing publications and issues. The archive will continue to evolve as new materials, information, and connections are discovered.
