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 does not mean that you are a "do-gooder" with vague ideas
about how to save the world. You are more sensible than that, for you have a clear, rational mind
and the ability to plan and organise. You might be more interested in the sciences and their
practical application [...]
[..] You may have a gift in spheres such as physics
and computer science; or your intuitive abilities might be expressed through one of the creative
arts, or in one of the helping professions. It is likely that the business world would not hold
much appeal - unless you are able [...]
[..] You have a fine sense of timing, which some people might call "luck" but which
really relies on your intuitive sense of future possibilities. You could work happily in fields
such as publishing and media, because you can see where things are going and what future trends
[...]
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 may
also expect too much from any company or organisation for which you work, since even if they seek
to adhere to ideals and ethics which are close to your own, you will always find something
wanting. You have a humanitarian spirit, but you may be less tolerant of individuals [...]
[..] You need recognition from your colleagues of
what you have accomplished as an individual, and you need freedom to do things in ways which
reflect your particular tastes and interests. You need to be able to feel that you are special and
acknowledged not only as a contributor [...]
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.
