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.
[..] Your work needs to fire your imagination, satisfy your
intellectual curiosity, allow you a sense of contact with life's mysteries, and, most importantly,
give you a feeling that you are here for a good purpose. These requirements are not impossible to
meet. But they do preclude [...]
You have clear, definite ideas about how things should be done, how people should treat each
other, and how the world could be made a better place. But you do not possess the kind of
aggressive nature which would suit you to work in spheres where such changes are made forcibly, [...]
[..] But try not to subject
yourself to a working environment where you can't get away from work is also not likely to suit
you, unless you know and like the people you are dealing with. Teamwork could be rewarding, as
long as you feel good and right with the team. You are not [...]
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.
[..] You may need to accept that life will never be quite
what you wish it to be; the sense of always aspiring to something more could provide a powerful
impetus for your creativity, provided you do not fall into the trap of becoming depressed when the
"something more" always [...]
[..] Yet you are tougher than you
think, and perhaps more ambitious as well. Although you are an idealist, you have a cautious,
self-reliant quality in your nature which could allow you to handle greater responsibility than
you might think, and which could also equip you to work [...]
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.
