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.
[..] Even if
you have had difficult financial problems in the past, don't let this discourage you from trying
new things - it would be sad if you turned to a remunerative but boring job because you lost
confidence in your dreams.
Your boredom threshold tends to be low, so seek [...]
[..] It is this connection with the wider world
which could contribute so much to your "job satisfaction". Without it, you are liable to feel
angry, resentful, and depressed. Although you may not be conventionally religious, you have
religious feeling - in other words, you need [...]
[..] Take any creative talent
very seriously, and don't be afraid to be experimental - as long as you have taken the time to
develop your skills as fully as possible. Recognition of your originality is likely to be more
important to you than a nice, safe pay cheque, so if you [...]
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.
[..] As long as you are perpetually comparing the
present with your vision of what might be, you will always find fault with what you have; and this
could interfere with your ability to complete what you begin. It could also mean that you do not
get the satisfaction from your [...]
[..] But you are also your own harshest critic, for deep inside there is an
insistent voice which demands that you actualise your potentials and earn what you get through
hard effort as well as charisma and imaginative gifts. You want to be respected by others, not
just liked [...]
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.
