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.
[..] However profound and serious your inclinations, you become easily bored
having to work with ideas which are past their sell-by date, and where the excitement of
communicating new ways of thinking to others is lacking. Stay away from more traditional work
environments where [...]
[..] But working with self-help or therapeutic groups could provide you with the right balance between
your desire to help others and your need for a broader, more detached perspective.
Scientific and technological research could appeal to your clear mind and love of imparting
[...]
[..] But you would be
happy in such spheres only if you know you are able to promulgate a message and contribute
something of value to the enhancement of others' knowledge and awareness. If the media can provide
you with a vehicle to educate others, this could be an ideal area [...]
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 sometimes pay too much attention to what others think,
and not enough to your own inner voice. You can be easily "wrong-footed" by people whom you deem
to be cleverer than yourself, and if you express ideas which create discord, you may be too
frightened of disharmony [...]
[..] If you lack confidence,
you may not feel you can cope with others' disapproval; and this could lead to suppressing your
real feelings. And that, in turn, could lead to a gradual accruing of resentment and anger which
will, sooner or later, erupt in an inappropriate way at [...]
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.
