ORIGINS AND ETYMOLOGY

Astro-English: from Astronese, the prefix astro- is used broadly to denote phenomena of the astronomical world or beliefs concerning such phenomena; when conjoined to the word humanism, this results in the development of a rationalistic approach to both the Astroeschatology and the Astrosoteriology following the syncretism of Astronist beliefs within humanist ideals about the centrality of human agency.
