A Quarterly Publication of the International Society for Astrological Research

Greetings, everyone!

There are many benefits available to ISAR members, but we're absolutely convinced that ISAR’s International Astrologer will be at the very top of your list!

This membership-only journal offers a diverse selection of quality articles from every avenue of astrological interest -- from mundane to political/celebrity analysis to "how-to" columns on research and financial astrology. We've got book reviews, conference information, and timely community news. In short, we try our best to include something for everyone in each and every issue. We also insist that our authors write clearly, simply, and concisely, in terms that everyone can understand and appreciate. So you'll be able to learn new techniques and absorb new research pointers quite easily. You will love the pictures of members and the activities we do in the name of ISAR and astrology in over 45 countries around the world.

ISAR’s International Astrologer is published three times per year to coincide with the sun’s entrance into 0° of Fire.

The ISAR Journal's Mission Statement

ISAR's purpose is to assist, encourage, and educate those who wish to achieve and maintain a high professional standard of competence in the field of astrology. We support the discovery, development and use of techniques relevant to astrological research, and offer members the opportunity to participate in frequent conferences that are enlightening, educational, and fun! In short, we take our jobs - but not ourselves - very seriously.

If you're interested in writing for the journal, you should know that we're looking for 'just the facts' ­- simply, clearly, and objectively stated. (But please don't hesitate to have fun while you're at it!) We're not worried about whether you're a professional or a student. If you have something to teach us, some research to share, or some profound philosophical thoughts on applying astrology to life, we'd like to hear from you. Above all else, we want quality articles that will educate, interest and entertain all levels of astrologers and astrology students. Along those lines, please keep in mind that if you write your article with a wide audience in mind, your work will reach all levels of readers, and encourage even newcomers to become - and stay - interested in our wonderful field.

Advertising

These magazines are keepers! Our members hold on to them and refer to them often, so your ads will work for you for much longer than a single season. In addition, you'll be helping to support a non-profit research organization that's dedicated to preserving and maintaining a positive, professional reputation for astrology - which will benefit us all!

Your product or service does not need to be astrological. Many of our members and supporters have other businesses which need advertising - so please do consider networking through placing an ad in our journal.
