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 [...]
[..] But equally, you would
probably not be happy in a large but chaotic company or organisation where inefficiency and
sloppiness would make your working life intolerable. The academic world might suit you, especially
if it is a high-quality university in a tranquil environment, [...]
You might have learned hard lessons about the dangers of material self-indulgence in early life,
but it is certain that, as you mature, your hard-won sense of self-discipline can work to great
advantage in your professional life. Your values are rooted in a respect for [...]
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.
[..] If you are too inclined to judge others
by your own more conservative standards, this could interfere with your working relationships and
make it difficult for you to recognise the potentials of those who are more overtly unconventional
than you are. Your security needs [...]
[..] Try not to see it that way, or you could harm yourself
through undermining your self-confidence. And that could hold you back and make you perceive
yourself as a failure when this is not at all the reality. You also need to be able to enjoy what
you do, and relax with it [...]
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.
