"ASTRONISM IS A COSMOCENTRIC RELIGION THAT CHAMPIONS TRANSCENSION TO THE STARS AS THE SUPREME METHOD FOR ACHIEVING THE SALVATION OF INTELLIGENT SPECIES BY OVERCOMING ALL LIMITATION AND ENJOYING THE ULTIMATE REWARDS OF TRANSCOSMISATION AND DIVINE REUNIFICATION." – COMETAN, 9th October 2023

MAIN ASTRONIST BELIEFS
-
TRANSCENSION: SPACE EXPLORATION AND APPROXIMATION TO THE ASTRONOMICAL WORLD IS THE TRUE PATH TO SALVATION BECAUSE THIS WILL LEAD TO OUR ELEVATION FROM OUR LIMITED NATURE.
-
SENTIENTISM: LIFE BELOW AND BEYOND THE INTELLIGENCE OF HUMANITY EXISTS IN THE COSMOS.
-
ALL PEOPLE ACHIEVE COSMOSIS WHEN THEY DIE, BUT ALSO COSMIC UNION IS ACHIEVABLE DURING YOUR LIFETIME WHICH IS KNOWN AS ASTROSIS.
-
ULTIMATIONISM: IT IS THE DESTINY OF SAPIENT HUMANITY TO TRANSCEND TO LIMITLESS EXISTENCE BY TRAVERSING THE COSMIC PERIPHERY AND RIDDING OURSELVES OF ALL LIMITATION.
-
COSMOCENTRISM: OUTER SPACE IS THE MOST IMPORTANT ASPECT OF COSMIC EXISTENCE BECAUSE IT IS THE MEDIUM OF SALVATION.
-
PANENTHEISM: THE DIVINE EXISTS OUTSIDE ALL THE COSMOSES BUT CONTINUES INTERPENETRATE THEM THROUGH THE DISPENSATION OF SCOPE BUT DOES NOT INCARNATE.

THE
ASTRONIST STATEMENT
The Astronist Statement on the Situation of the Human Species, often simply referred to as The Astronist Statement, is a non-technical manifesto of the Astronist philosophy and religion, altogether referenced as the Astronist belief system. It provides a summary of the Astronist perspective on the human condition as this pertains to and is influenced by the ultimate goals of Astronism and the purposes it prescribes to human life through its doctrines on transcension, cosmocentrism, suronality and astrosis. The Astronist Statement is made equivalent to other kinds of theological or ideological manifestos in that it outlines the fundamental problems that Astronism sees effecting the human species and presents solutions to these problems identified. The underlying principle of The Astronist Statement and thereby, all Astronism, is that due to the pervading cosmic limitation, human beings both individually and collectively are limited in our capacities to do and be. This means that the human species is inherently though not hopelessly limited which is pinpointed as the underlying reason for all the suffering, evil and wrongdoing in the world.
Astronism: the religion of the stars is published on 23rd March 2022 as a technical summary of the Astronist religion and philosophy that uses terminology unique to the Astronists and specialised knowledge of Astronist beliefs. It is the perfect brief introduction to Astronism for those with prior understanding of the academic disciplines of eschatology, soteriology, theology and philosophy as the Astronist view on all of these subject areas and more is provided. Astronism: the religion of the stars attempts to explain the narrative that underlies Astronist beliefs and presents a particular conception of how humans should not only lead their lives but also how we as an entire species should consider our collective future on planet Earth, and more importantly, all beyond.
The untechnical summary of the Astronist religion and philosophy titled The Astronist Statement (full title: The Astronist Statement on the Situation of the Human Species) is coming soon in 2022.

VENDOX
The most well known symbol of Astronism, the Vendox has become synonymous with Astronist beliefs as well as with modern astronomical religion as a whole.
First designed by Cometan, a myriad of interpretations have taken place regarding the Vendox birthing a whole discipline of study for the symbol, known as vendoxology.
COMETAN
Cometan founded Astronism from the age of fifteen after receiving a series of revelations and ideations which provided him the ability to write the Omnidoxy. Cometan had a mission to revive long-persecuted astronomical religions.
Cometan rose to fame thereafter and dedicated his life to the dissemination of Astronism and the safekeeping of its beliefs for future generations. Learn more about Cometan here.
OMNIDOXY
The Omnidoxy is the treatise that founded not only Astronism, but introduced a plethora of new disciplines of study, most notably cosmic philosophy, a new branch of study in philosophy.
Solely written by Cometan, the Omnidoxy laid the foundations of the Astronist belief system and became the basis for the organisation of the entire Astronic tradition of religions and philosophies. Learn more about the Omnidoxy here.
THE INSTITUTION
The Astronist Institution is the proprietor of Astronism as prescribed and established by Cometan in the Omnidoxy.
The Institution is responsible for the preservation and advancement of all the different elements that form the Astronist religion.

The Fourth Major Astronist Mechanism is produced by Cometan and is published by the Astronist Institution. This Fourth Mechanism, aptly titled Chronology of Transcension, provides a visual timeline of the salvific endeavours of human beings, both individual (astrotic) and collective (transcensional); in addition, a spider diagram of doctrines concerning transcension is created and one of the first explications of the Surosia is revealed.
