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 might also feel at home in the arts,
provided you can retain your ideals and are not pressured into pursuing fame at any cost. You
might work well within the fields of education or the law, as long as you can find a niche where
you are not perpetually bombarded by questionable [...]
You look for meaning everywhere. Events are never perceived as random or unconnected, but always
seem part of a larger pattern; painful experiences appear to you as lessons from which you can
learn and grow. This reflects a deep faith in something intelligent and purposeful [...]
[..] You love learning, although this is likely to be
more experiential than academic; and you quickly "use up" people, places, and ideas, absorbing the
gist of what is important and then looking around to see what else you can focus your interest and
imagination on. Whether 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.
[..] But if your
rejection of mundane values is too extreme, you can cause yourself many problems in terms of
security and the ability to anchor your vision in solid forms. This does not imply that you should
become something you are not. Money for its own sake is unlikely to [...]
[..] Dealing with the challenges of material reality may often seem pointless, and you are more
inclined to aspire to transcending the world than making a success of your work within it. But if
you do not make some effort to ground your creative imagination and spiritual aspirations [...]
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.
