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.
[..] Even if
you have had difficult financial problems in the past, don't let this discourage you from trying
new things - it would be sad if you turned to a remunerative but boring job because you lost
confidence in your dreams.
Your boredom threshold tends to be low, so seek [...]
[..] Or you might be able to satisfy your "itchy feet" metaphorically, through mental
travel which involves studying and making connections between a wide range of subjects. You love
putting together disparate pieces of information to get a whole picture, and nothing pleases [...]
[..] There is a certain theatricality in you which needs to be utilised through
your work, and various spheres of the creative professions could provide a home for this taste for
a bigger, brighter world. You also love beauty and beautiful things, and if you have any talent at

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 chief limitation, in terms of your work, springs from your
greatest gift: your ability to envisage potentials and move forward driven by the fire of your
imagination. You could never become a staid, "solid citizen" who has forgotten how to reach for
the magic which [...]
[..] It may be that they feel obscured by the
bright light of your own gifts and personality. Working on your own can help to avoid this
dilemma. But however independent you are in your working life, you need to be creative and offer
your gifts to others; their appreciation matters [...]
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.
