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.
[..] Certain branches of the sciences
may attract you because theories must be tested and proven, and you like to understand the
essential laws by which things work. You can be shrewd and careful with money, and could offer
your astuteness and organisational skills in spheres [...]
[..] You also have the gift of
loyalty, and are inclined to stick with a particular group or company through thick and thin. It
takes a lot to dislodge your loyalty, and you are prepared to weather the bad times as well as
enjoy the good ones, as long as you have faith in the [...]
[..] You might make an excellent manager and organiser, and you can be shrewd and astute when it comes
to assessing and encouraging the abilities of those who work for you. You may need to learn to
delegate more easily, for it is hard for you to tolerate sloppiness in others' [...]
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 arises from these very positive attributes, and is the
"down" side of your strengths: you may be so reliant on traditional structures that you do not
give enough room for innovation and the expression of your creative imagination. Because you
mistrust [...]
[..] If you stifle these intuitions and longings for the
ineffable, you may find yourself projecting them onto those around you who seem "woolly" or
"unreliable". Try not to barricade yourself behind a rigid set of values which is designed to keep
at bay something which you fear [...]
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.
