Cultural elements

Astronism in Saint Kitts and Nevis refers to the presence of the Astronist philosophy and religion in the Federation of Saint Christopher and Nevis. The operations of the Astronist Institution in this country are under jurisdiction of the Astronist Superiate of Saint Kitts and Nevis, a national subsidiary of the worldwide Astronist Institution.

The Astronist Superiate of Saint Kitts and Nevis oversees the construction and maintenance of observatories and planetariums throughout its jurisdiction. Saint Kitts and Nevis is split into fourteen parishes and is set to hold one Grand Observatory in the capital city of Basseterre.

This national branch of the Astronist Institution manages the official representation and depiction of Astronism throughout this territory, including efforts to protect the identity of the philosophy with the intention of further disseminating it throughout the territory.

It is the Institution alone that is granted the status of proprietor to the philosophy in this territory as any other organisations or institutions proclaiming such a role are deemed as unauthorised proprietors and are therefore considered as part of the anti-Institutionist movement.

History of Astronism in Saint Kitts and Nevis[]

As of December 2020, Astronism is not recognised as a valid religion or religious group in the country of Saint Kitts and Nevis.
