ISAR is dedicated to encouraging the highest standards of quality in astrology. We do that in several ways: by offering a certification program that emphasizes ethics awareness, competence in techniques and interpretation, and consulting skills; by networking with other organizations to provide the best astrological educational services possible; by sponsoring research to help build a body of evidence relevant to astrology; and by providing a professionally written journal and a weekly e-newsletter.
ISAR offers members several benefits. Its journal, The International Astrologer, will be available online on our website beginning April 1st 2010. It can also be mailed in softbound version three times per year. The journal presents thought-provoking and educational articles with a variety of astrological perspectives. The weekly e-newsletter allows every member to share ideas, ask for help, or provide perspective. Membership also includes reduced admission fees to conferences. Perhaps most important of all is the sense of community that members share as we work together towards our common goal of promoting professionalism in astrology.

New Membership Fees begin March 1st, 2010 |
|
The ISAR board has recently voted to increase membership fees beginning March 1st, 2010. Annual dues for both U.S. and international members will be $49. Three-year memberships will be $110 and lifetime memberships will be $600 for those under 65, $500 for those over 65, and $350 for those over 75 years old.
For couples, add $20 more to all rates.
Increasing our dues will enable ISAR to continue funding our current programs and introduce new ones as well. These include designing and conducting a research project for ISAR's international community, creating a public relations program for astrology, and holding annual conferences in the U.S. and in other countries. With your support, we will be able to implement the programs that we believe are important for ISAR and for astrology. |
