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.
[..] But whether you work in the world or apart from it, the core of your
working life needs to be the poet's vision which inspires you and which, for you, is the true
reality. Your heart and imagination must be touched, and you need to know that you are connected
with a higher, [...]
[..] Your sense of being part of a larger unity is very deep and insistent, even if you have not
formulated the sense of connection that you feel. This may have caused you problems in the past,
because if you have tried to pursue the ordinary cut-and-thrust business of making [...]
[..] If you are considering further education, make sure you
pursue subjects which encourage this way of thinking, for you can easily feel undermined if you
are required to prove your competence through conventional examinations. Your intuitive insights
into human behaviour could [...]
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 arises from your greatest strength: your intense
loyalty to an inner vision which you are impelled to express to the outside world. In order to
feel fulfilled, you need to be creative, and you need to put into form those truths, [...]
[..] You will probably never be entirely happy about compromising your
vision, and you will always long for something which is unobtainable in this mundane world. But
you can make a rewarding and worthwhile contribution to any field in which you work, provided you
are able to [...]
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.
