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 her characteristic approach to life.
The rich array of individual abilities and potentials portrayed in Polly'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
her alone. This mysterious "something" is already at work within Polly, helping her to develop her personality along the lines which are healthiest and most natural to her.
[..] Nothing is as disturbing to Polly as a narrow-minded or noncommunicative family in an emotionally charged atmosphere. She is essentially a creature of the air, needing breathing space, brightness and the sense that
she is surrounded by friends. She is naturally quick and [...]
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 Polly's inner story is the source of energy which provides the impetus for growth, movement and the formation of a healthy individuality.
[..] If she is unable to find the magic she seeks amidst the tasks and disappointments of ordinary life, she may on occasion retreat into a fantasy-world of her own creation. If she feels very upset and threatened, she may become withdrawn and
melancholy, preferring to stay [...]
[..] It is important for parents to gently introduce Polly to all the shades of gray in life and in human nature, for she tends to see
things in black and white. Bad people always ride black horses, and good ones always ride white ones, and life "ought" to be fair. Yet despite [...]
Hidden traits
[..] This less developed side can offer a much needed realism and resilience, if it is understood and encouraged to develop. Here are
hidden all those powerful instinctual and emotional needs which, because they are so raw and intense, can cause Polly conflict as she develops. [...]
IV. Emotional Needs and Patterns in Relationships
This chapter contains valuable information on the child's basic needs and the relationship with her 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.
[..] A claustrophobic or heavily charged emotional atmosphere may be very hurtful and distressing to her, for she needs to feel that loved ones trust her and can let her go away and come back mentally, physically
and emotionally without trying to possess her or crush her [...]
[..] This could contribute greatly to the girl's artistic sensibilities and her compassion for others as she grows up. There is considerable idealism in Polly's love for her mother, and it may
sometimes be hard for the daughter to see her mother as an ordinary person who can [...]
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.
VI. Looking toward the future
Many parents wonder about the future of their child. Every child has her own way to develop her potential. What this means for the individual child is described on 2-3 pages in chapter six of the complete Child's Horoscope.
