I. Introduction
This short extract gives you a taste of your personal "Career and Vocation" horoscope by Liz
Greene. The small samples taken from various chapters convey an impression of the complete
vocation horoscope (18-25 pages) which can be
ordered as an E-Horoscope or a bound book in the AstroShop.
When we are children, people say to us, "What do you want to be when you grow up?" At that age, we
usually have dreams. When we are children, we are still capable of hearing the voice of the soul.
As we grow older, the questions change. There is no longer time for dreaming; we must now "face
reality" and think about how to survive in the big, bad old world.
This astrological report is about your vocation. It is meant to help you get a sense of what you
might be good at and what might be good for you, so that your working life has a meaning as well
as a pay cheque.
II. How You See the World
This chapter briefly describes your personal perspective on life and explains how you can best
express this in your career.
III. Your aptitudes and strengths
This chapter, which contains 8-10 pages, is one of the most comprehensive sections in the "Career
and Vocation" horoscope. Here is a short selection of three samples from the numerous aptitudes
described in the complete report.
An honest and realistic understanding of your fundamental strengths can help you to orientate
yourself in the world and put your energy into areas where you can hope to shine and achieve at
least many of your most cherished goals.
[..] You are idealistic and tolerant, democratic in spirit
and deeply concerned with human potential and the possibility of improving society. You understand
very well the poet John Donne's dictum that no human being is an island, and you want to know that
you are doing your [...]
[..] Your work must have a deeper meaning, and fit
into the grand design which you sense to be behind material existence. It might not be advisable
for you to work at a job which holds no meaning for you on deeper or higher levels. You have a
firm belief in the essential goodness [...]
[..] Group work which utilises a
knowledge of the psychology of the mass could also interest you, and psychology and sociology are
fields which are likely to prove rewarding.
Learn patience. Your vision of how things could and should be, and your sensitivity to all that
needs [...]
IV. Know Your Limits
This chapter describes your personal limitations and suggests how you can deal with these in your
professional life. In the complete horoscope, this chapter is about 5-7 pages in length.

Recognising your innate limitations can help you to focus your energy in the right direction and
get the maximum fulfilment from your work.
[..] Your idealism and desire
to see progress in some sphere of human endeavour focuses you on transforming and reforming; and
sometimes you may find it hard to accept the fact that not everyone wishes to be changed or
challenged in this way. In your work environment, you are [...]
[..] Perhaps you need to see things less in stark black-and-white terms, and more in
subtle shades of grey -for otherwise you may categorise people, ideologies, institutions, and
forms of behaviour in too simplistic a fashion and create more problems than you are healing. You
will [...]
V. Working with Others
The two final chapters of "Career and Vocation" deal with the way you work together with your
colleagues in your everyday working life, and what success means to you personally.
One of the most important factors to consider in terms of your direction in life is how you work
with others. Everyone has his or her own style of relating in the working environment; everyone
has different needs and requirements.
VI. What Success Really Means to You
When people speak of "success", they generally mean a position of importance in the world's eyes,
or a job that yields lots of money and all the material pleasures and comforts that implies. But
success, in terms of the deeper issue of vocation, is a highly individual thing that means
different things to different people.
