I. Introduction
This short extract gives you a taste of the personal "Child's Horoscope" by Liz Greene. The small samples taken from various chapters convey an impression of the complete horoscope (18-25 pages) which can be
ordered as an E-Horoscope or a bound book in the AstroShop.
Most parents long to provide their children with the best they can offer on every level. But what is "the best"? The birth horoscope of a child is a map of patterns and potentials which exist in that child from the moment of birth. Encouragement of
these potentials in childhood can help a child to develop greater confidence and hope for a future which is more authentically his or her own, so that greater happiness and fulfillment are possible later in life.
II. Your Child's Psychological Type
In this concise chapter Liz Greene describes the child's general temperament and her characteristic approach to life.
The rich array of individual abilities and potentials portrayed in Toni's birth horoscope is set against the background of an inherent temperament bias which may be partly hereditary but is also the reflection of a mysterious essence which belongs to
her alone. This mysterious "something" is already at work within Toni, helping her to develop her personality along the lines which are healthiest and most natural to her.
[..] Mental acumen is apparent in her rapid grasp of concepts, her obvious
pleasure in communicating her ideas to others, and her emerging identification with ethical principles such as fairness. Toni is an inherently civilised child whose nature requires courtesy, order, balance [...]
III. The Characters in the Story
This is one of the most comprehensive chapters of the "Child's Horoscope". This short version touches only on a few of the central characters in your child's personality. The complete report provides a detailed description on 7-9 pages.
The tension between the main characters in Toni's inner story is the source of energy which provides the impetus for growth, movement and the formation of a healthy individuality.
[..] She also has little inclination to push her way to centre stage, and will probably be happier playing a "behind the
scenes" role quietly helpful, undemanding and genuinely happy when a brother or sister or friend has good fortune. She is likely to function well in school [...]
[..] It would be unwise to use the word "selfish" as a weapon to discipline her, since she worries far too much about being selfish anyway. The word is hypocritical in any event, as it usually means that someone is simply doing what he or she wants rather
than what you want. Applying [...]
Hidden traits
[..] But Toni may
suffer conflict as she grows older because she will find it difficult to reconcile her need of others with her need to take charge of her own life. She has a great fear of loneliness and separateness, and this exaggerates her tendency to placate
others. Because [...]
IV. Emotional Needs and Patterns in Relationships
This chapter contains valuable information on the child's basic needs and the relationship with her parents. The complete horoscope covers this chapter on 5-6 pages.
Every child has particular ways in which he or she experiences and seeks emotional contact with others, and this may not always accord with other, more dominant personality traits.
[..] And although her own feelings are rarely exclusively centred on one individual, competition with siblings
for parental affection is likely to be quite intense although subtly and artfully expressed. Most importantly, a sense of emotional closeness is fundamental to Toni's [...]
[..] Toni could easily confuse the mythic image of the fragile princess with the unhappy figure of the martyr if she is given no other options, and this latter is hardly a positive model of femininity for
a young girl. The daughter's deep devotion to her mother should never [...]
V. Fears and Insecurities
Knowing about their child's fears can help parents to react with love and understanding in challenging situations. The child's main fears and insecurities are described on 2-3 pages in the full report.
VI. Looking toward the future
Many parents wonder about the future of their child. Every child has her own way to develop her potential. What this means for the individual child is described on 2-3 pages in chapter six of the complete Child's Horoscope.
