THE AVALON SCHOOL OF ASTROLOGY CODE OF ETHICS
This
code of ethics has been adapted from the Code Of Ethics of the
Association of Professional Astrologers, an international organization
centered in England, with their kind permission.
Graduates
of The Avalon School of Astrology agree to observe the following
criteria in the undertaking of all their astrological work.
(a) To respect the dignity and worth of every
human being and their right to self-determination. To accept responsibility
to encourage and facilitate the self-development of the client,
whilst having due regard to the interests and rights of others.
(b) To preserve the confidentiality and anonymity of a client
and all material relating to a client. To take great care in the publication
or presentation of case material and to maintain that anonymity unless the
client otherwise agrees.
(c) To ensure that a client is made fully aware of the method
of working, the duration and nature of the consultation(s) and the fees involved
before any work is undertaken.
(d) To ensure that potential clients, whose needs are beyond
the competence of an individual astrologer, are referred to appropriate individuals
or agencies.
(e) To refrain from offering any medical, legal or financial
advice to a client on astrological grounds unless the appropriate skills
or qualifications have been obtained.
(f) To refrain from making public comments or predictions
on the personal or emotional life of public figures or on the state of their
health. Any comments on public figures should be concerned solely with the
role for which they are known, and should not be made in a manner likely
to bring astrology or the School into disrepute.
(g) To maintain the highest standards in all dealings with
clients, and to refrain from behavior likely to bring astrology or the School
into disrepute.
