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.
[..] If you are drawn to the arts, you are likely to be attracted to theory as much as practise, and
you tend to bring as much intellect as feeling to any creative work. If you have a gift for
writing, your clear and precise use of words, and your ability to organise ideas in [...]
[..] You believe in getting the best
training and the best qualifications, and if your education was interrupted earlier in your life,

the right position. This also applies if you [...]

you, and an intuitive understanding of collective trends could equip you to work in any field

required.

IV. Know Your Limits

Recognising your innate limitations can help you to focus your energy in the right direction and
get the maximum fulfilment from your work.
[..] You run the risk of
intellectual rigidity if you are not prepared to be open to what you do not understand or find
inexplicable, and ultimately you could build up enormous frustration because of cutting off the
flow of ideas and intuitions that make your work worthwhile. Logical thought [...]
[..] You may need to observe your own thinking processes more carefully to
understand better how your mind works, and what inspires you to more creative and inclusive
thinking. But try not to be dogmatic in your thinking. Because you have the gift of perceiving the
whole, you [...]
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.
