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 need to feel useful, and you want to contribute your share to the world in which you
live. But you have no fantasies of saving the world, and you do not overestimate your importance
in the grand scheme of things. You would be content to feel you are creating something [...]
[..] You might also be suited to working in some
field of the arts, anchoring your imagination in form and offering its products to a wider public.
Working for companies and institutions is not impossible for you, and you are pragmatic enough to
accept life's limits. But within [...]
[..] Working as a counsellor, therapist, therapeutic group leader, remedial teacher, or
other profession which draws on your own experience could prove to be deeply fulfilling to you;
for you would heal something in yourself in the course of helping others to heal. However, your
[...]
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 could
leave you vaguely discontented, even though you have the gift of deriving satisfaction from what
you do in the moment. And it may also block the use of real creative talent, because you aim for
what is possible according to your assessment of reality rather than [...]
[..] You can be rather critical of co-workers who are too
flamboyantly imaginative, and you can also be highly critical of yourself if you catch yourself
indulging in such a way. But this could block real talent, if you are too insistent on facts and
logic and results which can [...]
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.
