All members of the Arizona Society of
Astrologers are required to accept and to conform to the following Code of Ethics as a condition
of membership.
I agree that, in all my relations with an individual and/or client, I
will be guided by the highest principles of honor and integrity.
I agree to hold inviolate any confidence reposed in me by an individual
and/or client or any confidential or private information obtained by me through
astrological means in respect to an individual and/or client on the same basis of practice
prescribed as ethical by physicians and attorneys.
I agree not to discuss the horoscopes of individuals in public, nor to
write about them for publication without their written permission, or I will confine my
observation to factors in his or her life which are commonly regarded as public property
due to (a) the position he or she has attained in the arts, politics and other places of
leadership, or to (b) his or her celebrity or notoriety.
I agree to make a clear distinction at all times between the improper
use of astrology as a form of fortune-telling, or a pretense of powers to predict specific
future events with absolute certainty, and its proper use as a technique for determining
the probabilities in human events, and to this end I agree further:
A. If my conclusions are based on anything other than an
astrological chart calculated for a definite geographical location and an equally definite
year, month, day and hour, I will indicate this fact.
B. In view of the general public tendency to interpret the words
"predict" and "prediction" as implying a claim of specific ability to
forecast future events in the fortune-telling sense, I will avoid the use of these words
without definite qualification, speaking rather of "indications" or whatever
other astrological language suggests "probability" in a truer scientific sense.
I agree to make no use of astrology in connection with promotion schemes
or business practices such as would be regarded as unethical.
I agree to conduct myself with the highest principles and to promote
cooperation.
I accept the above Code of Ethics and agree to conform to its
requirements.
