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 direction in life needs to include the chance to express your truly
democratic spirit, allowing you to meet people from all walks of life and expanding your own
understanding through communication with others. You have the gift of the "common touch", and this
equips [...]
[..] This genuine willingness
to consider others' viewpoints, and the skill with which you elicit and provide information and
advice, equips you to work in any liaison capacity, acting as a diplomat, peacemaker, legal
representative, or strategic "power behind the throne". You could [...]
[..] You are not likely to be
happy working in a vacuum.
You have a lot of compassion for others, and plenty of inventiveness in thinking of ways to do
something with your urge to change the world. You are prepared to work very hard for others'
benefit. You are also inclined [...]
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.
[..] A
balance is therefore necessary, if you are to remain true to both your need to be involved with
the human community and your need to express yourself as an individual. Even if you feel you are
expressing yourself adequately - for example, you might be the person in charge [...]
[..] Although you have the
gift of creating harmony in any work situation, you are, somewhere deep inside, never really "one
of them", and the isolation such a feeling generates can drive you into becoming even more
accommodating and conciliatory. You are sometimes a little frightened [...]
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.
