A note on our not-for-profit basis
The BNN Astrology Association is an independent, not-for-profit body. Any funding collected through membership and exam fees is used only to run the Association: to maintain and improve this website and to organise our events. It is not distributed for private profit.
How you qualify
Earned by examination
Reach each level by sitting the exam. Existing practitioners are never forced through a beginner path; everyone meets at the same exam, so the credential is never diluted.
