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 Brad'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 Brad, helping him to develop his personality along the lines which are healthiest and most natural to him.
[..] Because his world revolves around his emotional bonding with others, everything is taken personally even when it is
not intended so. A sibling's momentary loss of patience or a parent's harsh remark borne out of tiredness will be immediately interpreted as a deliberate [...]
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 Brad's inner story is the source of energy which provides the impetus for growth, movement and the formation of a healthy individuality.
[..] He is likely to function well in school groups, and may take on the role of mediator in the family if quarrels arise between parents or
siblings. He is sensitive to the feelings of others and possesses a great deal of natural tact. Most of all, Brad loves the feeling that [...]
[..] It would be unwise to use the word "selfish" as a weapon to discipline him, since he worries far too much about being selfish anyway. The word is hypocritical in any event, as it usually means that someone is simply doing what he or she wants rather
than what you want. Applying [...]
Hidden traits
[..] He would be condemning himself to an unnecessarily painful isolation if he retreats defensively into a proud
and inaccessible stance toward other children even if his instinctive mistrust of the group is based on real experiences of hurtful behaviour. It may also be fueled [...]
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.
[..] Communication and the sharing of joyful
enthusiasm are vital to his well-being, and he will not tolerate indifference for long. Because he feels every new experience as a hopeful adventure, he easily becomes depressed and miserable in an emotional climate where life is [...]
[..] Obviously no parent can be dynamic, optimistic and expansive twenty-four hours a day. And circumstances such as domestic conflicts or work pressures may make
it hard for Brad's father to feel at all adventurous, or to spend as much time with his son as both might wish. But [...]
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.
