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.

[..] Too much of a clinical or sociological emphasis may prove disillusioning to you. You might also feel at home in the arts, provided you can retain your ideals and are not pressured into pursuing fame at any cost. You might work well within the fields of education or the law, [...]

[..] This special combination of a strong intuition with an appreciation of intellectual structures could find a home in fields such as the law, where you need to deal both with people and with the abstract principles and psychological dynamics underpinning relationships. You have [...]

[..] Working in the arts could offer you plenty of room to tap the wellsprings of the imagination and convey to others the brighter, grander world which you can see so clearly in your mind's eye. You may also have a natural healing gift, which could be utilised in either conventional [...]

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. Please click here to read a complete sample report

Recognising your innate limitations can help you to focus your energy in the right direction and get the maximum fulfilment from your work.

[..] Your focus on subtler levels of reality reflects a fine imagination and an inner commitment to a higher or deeper plane of existence. But if your rejection of mundane values is too extreme, you can cause yourself many problems in terms of security and the ability to anchor [...]

[..] Grounding creative ideas and images is a statement of individuality, and carries with it the necessity of defining yourself. It is this very self- definition which you may find painful, for it can bring an experience of loneliness with it; any creative work has to be done [...]

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.
