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.
[..] You want to feel you are helping the world in some way, or
contributing something fine and beautiful to it. Your ideals are extremely important to you, and
your work has to fulfil at least a part of those ideals. Without this, even if you are receiving a
large pay cheque, [...]
[..] And sometimes you can use anger as a kind of shield to hide
just how bruised and saddened you feel when your ideals have been disregarded or trivialised by
others. Earlier in your life, spheres such as law or psychology might have attracted you, and may
still do so. But in [...]
[..] But try not to subject
yourself to a working environment where you can't get away from work is also not likely to suit
you, unless you know and like the people you are dealing with. Teamwork could be rewarding, as
long as you feel good and right with the team. You are not [...]
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.
[..] This means not only a tendency to
be dissatisfied with those you work with, but also an inclination to be overly hard on yourself
and distressed when you feel you have somehow "failed" to live up to your high standards. Your
ideas and aspirations are wonderfully clear. But sometimes [...]
[..] This tough,
tenacious quality may be uncomfortable because it probably conflicts with what you believe to be
right and good in life. There may also be elements of suspicion and hurt involved, due to early
experiences which might have disillusioned you about the motives of [...]
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.
