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 have
an instinctive sense of how to behave in any milieu, effortlessly intuiting others' requirements
and expectations.
You also know how to put others at their ease. You would find it very hard to be isolated at a
desk with no one to communicate with and no "team" to [...]
[..] This can be both a gift and a handicap. It means you can put
off necessary confrontations with colleagues until you build up such a head of steam that your
annoyance bursts out of you in inappropriate ways which create the very disharmony you find so
distasteful. It also [...]
[..] Despite your talents and natural charm, fear of failure and rejection has probably caused you
plenty of loneliness and unhappiness during your life, and depressing thoughts may periodically
undermine your sense of self-worth. Your belief in your competence and creative potential [...]
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.
Your chief limitation, in terms of your working life, arises from your greatest strength. Because
you are so aware of the value of others' ideas, you are often insufficiently appreciative of your
own; and because co-operation and harmony matter so much to you, you may sometimes [...]
[..] Don't be frightened of what philosophy and psychology recognise as
the "ultimate aloneness" of every human being. You need to learn to bear this state in order to
maintain psychological independence in your work. And you may one day need to draw on your
survival instincts [...]
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.
