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.
[..] Since
most large companies involve a mixture of different types of people, some of whom are bound to
fall short of your standards, you would probably be happiest within a small organisation, or as an
independent self-employed person with a craft or professional qualification [...]
[..] Most important for you is the ability to
believe in what you do, for you have a strong need to make the world a little better, more
beautiful, kinder, or more orderly than it was when you entered it. It would probably be best if
you did not lower your standards unduly just [...]
[..] Get the best possible education you can - not only because it can help you to achieve more in the
world, but also because you are a perennial student. You need to go on learning throughout your
life, and a good education will give you the skills to ensure that you can continue [...]
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.
You are a refined and idealistic person, and you have a strong desire to not only work in a
civilised environment, but to create a more civilised world around you. Your chief limitation, in
terms of your work, arises from this very strength, for your aspiration to beauty [...]
[..] Even if you work with ideas,
in settings such as education or business, you may still need to expand your horizons and
introduce new theories and innovative ways of doing things. It is hard for you to adapt your
thinking to others' dictates, and you also need room to discuss, [...]
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.
