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.
[..] You could lead a team easily, for you are original and inventive, full of courage, and willing to
try methods and ideas which more timid souls would avoid. And you are often, if not always, right
in your intuitions about what is possible. You also have a deep sense of integrity, [...]
[..] You have powerful survival instincts and a taste for living on the
cutting edge, and you need challenge and depth in your working life. Dealing with crises brings
the best out of you, and taps the resources of your instincts and your capacity to see beneath the
surface of [...]
[..] Something that is too simple is an insult to
your intelligence and abilities, and you may simply refuse to do it, or may become mischievous and
play a few games just to demonstrate that you expect something that honours your willingness to
take on a difficult challenge. It could [...]
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, in terms of work, arises from your greatest strength: your insistence on
doing everything yourself. Your independence is a positive attribute which gives you the capacity
to go it alone and create the kind of working life you wish. It also allows [...]
[..] You need to balance your will with some detachment,
so that you can see when your ideas or creative work could do with some improvement or adjustment;
and you may also need to remind yourself that you live in a world with other people, all of whom
merit at least some recognition [...]
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.
