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.
[..] An independent profession might suit you
best, for then you would answer to no one but yourself, and the standards you attempt to meet
would be those which your own soul dictates. You are not likely to enjoy serving on a committee,
unless you are in charge of it. Seeking a [...]
[..] But you should not have to wear such masks every day at work; it
can be very exhausting to pretend to be what you are not. Moreover, you can see right through
others' masks, and are likely to have some very real feelings of empathy and compassion toward
those who have been [...]
[..] For this reason, work which involves frequent committee
participation may make you feel very uncomfortable. A work setting where each individual has the
freedom to pursue his or her own projects in privacy might be rewarding; but the so-called New Age
ethos of "sharing" [...]
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 enhances your inner life and ensures that you are loyal to your
own values. The opinions of others are not the driving influence on your life or on your choice of
work. But there is a paradox inherent in your temperament and your situation in relation to the
outer world. You need [...]
[..] It will not do for you to sit simmering for years over an
injury which a colleague or employer has inflicted on you - especially if it was never intended to
hurt you in the first place. You have a long memory for insults and injuries. Equally, on the "up"
side, you do not [...]
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.
