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.
[..] This no-nonsense approach to life means that you have little time for laziness, stupidity,
dishonesty, and the "poor me" cry of the professional victim. Many working environments,
especially those which involve large numbers of staff or are focused on humanitarian efforts [...]
[..] This
could make you sometimes overly concerned with financial matters, and you may feel that a secure,
humdrum job is a better choice than one which is exciting but risky in financial rewards. However,
it is important for you to understand as deeply as possible just why [...]
[..] Although this quality may not always be comfortable in your personal life
because of a certain element of mistrust, it can be a considerable asset in your work. You do not
expect people to give you anything for free, and you have a strong sense of responsibility which
makes [...]
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 one of your great strengths: your
emphasis on the reality of the moment and the importance of dealing with the material world as you
find it. You are direct, grounded, and willing to make the best of what you find [...]
[..] Try to recognise
that you are more complex than you might think. Your aesthetic sensibilities may draw you toward
working in some area of the arts, architecture, or design, and you could combine this with your
sound business skills to make a viable profession out of something [...]
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.
