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.
[..] Trends in
ideas interest you particularly, and you could enjoy being at the forefront in predicting and
assessing new movements in the arts, in fashion, and in all spheres of human interchange and
creativity. People need to be your vocation, particularly if you are able [...]
[..] Whether you do this in an educational setting, through writing and
publishing, or through psychological or sociological work, your work needs to make a contribution
to human awareness. You are an idealist with a highly positive vision of human potential, and you
need to [...]
[..] Whatever work you do, this pleasure in teamwork and harmonious interaction will always permeate
your work habits and manner of relating to colleagues. But it could also form the basis for the
actual nature of your work. You might make an excellent marriage counsellor, family [...]

Recognising your innate limitations can help you to focus your energy in the right direction and
get the maximum fulfilment from your work.
[..] Perhaps the opinions of others are not as
important as you believe. You need to put your faith in your own ideas first, and then refine them
according to the input you receive from others. Not everyone will agree with you, and you need to
be able to shake off other people's [...]
[..] If you lack confidence,
you may not feel you can cope with others' disapproval; and this could lead to suppressing your
real feelings. And that, in turn, could lead to a gradual accruing of resentment and anger which
will, sooner or later, erupt in an inappropriate way at [...]
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.
