A centrality discourse is a type of discourse in the Omnidoxy based on a subject that is considered to be important, especially in relation to Astronist ethics, such as a particular emotion or belief. Examples of such discourses include The Centrality of Betterment and The Centrality of Disappointment.


In the context of Astronism, a centrality refers to anything that is considered to be preferred or important, hence a centrality discourse is one which emphasises a particular subject's importance. Centrality discourses are numerous throughout the Omnidoxy, though they are particularly concentrated in the Duodoxy and the Nonodoxy. Centrality discourses are contrasted with incentrality discourses.
