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.
[..] Try to avoid jobs where you are simply one amongst many in a large organisation or institution.
You would only wind up creating crises in order to draw attention to yourself and express the
frustration you experience at being denied the right to feel special and recognised. There are
[...]
Mundane life holds few attractions for you, unless you can inject it with the grandeur and beauty
of myth - and preferably with yourself as one of the leading figures in the drama. You have a
powerful need to express yourself and inject your imagination into any work you [...]
[..] Try to accept that you will have to pay these
dues in order to earn the freedom you need. Once paid, you can carve out your own path, without
feeling that you are being victimised by the more conventional elements in society. You could
achieve considerable success in a progressive [...]
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 need to be careful of the
"prima donna" mentality which might lead to condescension toward those whom you perceive as not
especially creative, and which could also lead to a hostile and competitive atmosphere if you have
to deal with people who are striving for the same [...]
Your inner world is peopled with the creatures of myth, and you have a rich fantasy life which
could be expressed in many creative forms. But sometimes you may become so enamoured of this world
of vision and all its possibilities - particularly the possibilities for being [...]
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.
