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.
[..] Your boredom threshold tends to be low, so seek work which allows you plenty of projects that
don't take huge amounts of time to finish. The fields of advertising and design, travel and
creative writing, media and new technology, are all spheres where you can come up with [...]
[..] But there is some questing spirit within you that is open to new
ideas, particularly those which are innovative, progressive, and not yet fully acceptable to the
general public. Rules based on narrow-mindedness, prejudice, fear, or hunger for power will
probably make your [...]
[..] This gives you great originality, and if you wish to work in a creative
field, what you create is likely to be highly innovative and exciting. Take any creative talent
very seriously, and don't be afraid to be experimental - as long as you have taken the time to
develop [...]
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.
[..] However imperfect those forms may seem, they give you a
sense of reality and substance, and allow you to grow in self-confidence and self-respect. This
also applies to the acquisition of training and qualifications; for no matter how little these
things might mean compared [...]
[..] Feeling "not good enough" can make you
back away from the kind of challenges you really need. This complex pattern reflects your own
complexity, but it is not a "flaw" or failing. There is a conflict within you between your vision
of future potentials and an inner integrity [...]
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.
