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.
One of your greatest assets is the ability to pursue a goal even if others are uninterested, and
even if you must work on your own. You do not need the company of the crowd to validate what
enthuses you, and this allows you to make choices and develop your gifts without [...]
[..] Although
you respect self-discipline and may be attracted to spheres where intense discipline is required,
you could only offer yourself to such a structure if you knew there was a chance that some day,
some time, you could reach the top.
Early experiences of a hurtful or [...]
[..] Companies or groups which are intensely idealistic in their stated goals are the ones which are
most likely to be riddled with undercurrents, and you could easily wind up feeling either
scapegoated or somehow not "good" enough because you are picking up the shadow-side which [...]
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.
[..] Your chief limitation, when it comes to your working life, is
your reluctance to let others in - and this is largely due to a combination of pride and mistrust.
You would probably benefit from a close look at the ways in which this tendency to wall yourself
in affects not [...]
[..] Any
hint that you are not being taken seriously, or that you are unappreciated or unimportant, can
bring enormous anger to the surface. Criticism, even when it is well-meant and valid, may be
rejected out of hand because you feel so personally hurt and demeaned. Try to learn [...]
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.
