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 have the capacity to penetrate
beneath the apparently random surface of life to the patterns and laws which underpin existence;
and this fascination with, and ability to recognise, essential principles might equip you to work
in fields such as the legal profession, or [...]
[..] This also applies if you work in any sphere of the arts, for you appreciate
excellence and your values are likely to be rooted in traditional perspectives; you may need
training and a long apprenticeship before you feel you are producing your best work.
History, biography, [...]
[..] You could utilise this receptivity in creative
work, particularly in the spheres of music and visual arts; and you could also find it an
important asset in scientific fields such as physics and in many of the different branches of both
conventional and alternative medicine [...]
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.
[..] In your working life, the
realm of the imagination may be excluded from your approach to things, and this could prove a
handicap. You could block your potential for creative thinking if you always insist on facts and
logical structures; and you could also make it difficult [...]
[..] When you are attempting to be most "scientific", you are likely to
be in the grip of an inspiration which, while perhaps immensely creative, is not Truth in any
proven sense; and when you are being most careful to measure ideas against reality, you are at
your most open [...]
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.
