I. Introduction
This short extract gives you a taste of the personal "Child's Horoscope" by Liz Greene. The small samples taken from various chapters convey an impression of the complete horoscope (18-25 pages) which can be
ordered as an E-Horoscope or a bound book in the AstroShop.
Most parents long to provide their children with the best they can offer on every level. But what is "the best"? The birth horoscope of a child is a map of patterns and potentials which exist in that child from the moment of birth. Encouragement of
these potentials in childhood can help a child to develop greater confidence and hope for a future which is more authentically his or her own, so that greater happiness and fulfillment are possible later in life.
II. Your Child's Psychological Type
In this concise chapter Liz Greene describes the child's general temperament and his characteristic approach to life.
The rich array of individual abilities and potentials portrayed in Gabriel's birth horoscope is set against the background of an inherent temperament bias which may be partly hereditary but is also the reflection of a mysterious essence which belongs
to him alone. This mysterious "something" is already at work within Gabriel, helping him to develop his personality along the lines which are healthiest and most natural to him.
[..] Not only are the personal rapport with the teacher and the feeling of acceptance by the group of major importance, but Gabriel also needs to be able to relate any subject of study to human beings and their needs and concerns. As he develops, Gabriel may also prove to be [...] III. The Characters in the Story
This is one of the most comprehensive chapters of the "Child's Horoscope". This short version touches only on a few of the central characters in your child's personality. The complete report provides a detailed description on 7-9 pages.
The tension between the main characters in Gabriel's inner story is the source of energy which provides the impetus for growth, movement and the formation of a healthy individuality.
[..] Equally, forcible repression of
his vital spirit through harsh discipline or emotional manipulation would create many deep and lasting problems. Like any other child, Gabriel needs love, affection and understanding, not detached disinterest. But he will also need plenty [...]
[..] He may take great pleasure in assuming responsibilities really suited to an adult, and may feel
considerable pride and satisfaction in looking after younger siblings or assisting parents with difficult tasks. Although his temper may sometimes have a very short fuse, nevertheless [...]
Hidden traits
Sometimes Gabriel can feel terribly vulnerable and powerless, and as he gets older he may occasionally "cave in" when stressed or challenged, regressing to the emotional state of a much younger child. Hidden confusion and bewilderment can undermine
his determination and [...]
IV. Emotional Needs and Patterns in Relationships
This chapter contains valuable information on the child's basic needs and the relationship with his parents. The complete horoscope covers this chapter on 5-6 pages.
Every child has particular ways in which he or she experiences and seeks emotional contact with others, and this may not always accord with other, more dominant personality traits.
[..] But Gabriel's warm and generous emotional nature is not the only factor in his way of relating to others. Because there is also a certain shyness and insecurity at work within him, he may sometimes give the
impression of someone driving a car with the brakes on. He may [...]
[..] But Gabriel will not understand why his father has gone away, emotionally or physically, and will therefore find it harder internalise the positive side of such experiences
unless his father is prepared to engage in dialogue with him.
The mental level of this relationship [...]
V. Fears and Insecurities
Knowing about their child's fears can help parents to react with love and understanding in challenging situations. The child's main fears and insecurities are described on 2-3 pages in the full report.
