Edicts and Anathema
Source Player Core pg. 24
You can choose to take on edicts and anathema to reinforce your character's beliefs and guide how they'd react in certain situations. Edicts are behaviors your personal philosophy or code encourages. Anathema are the opposite: actions contrary to your point of view and violations of your personal code. For example, you might follow an edict to keep records of any planet you visit, or you might consider it anathema to erase data or conceal information from the public.
For most characters, these are entirely optional, though it's best to consider taking some on as you create your character to hone in on how they think. If you follow a deity, you might take inspiration from the edicts and anathema listed for them on the Deities page. Ancestry entries list edicts and anathema prevalent among their communities.

Changing Edicts and Anathema
Source Player Core pg. 25
Edicts and anathema can change during play as a character’s beliefs evolve, or as you realize that your character’s actions reflect a different set of values than you once thought. In most cases, you can just change a relevant edict or anathema and continue playing.
