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.
[..] Here you are likely to feel most at home, and most
free to seek that place at the centre of the stage which matters so much to you.
Try to avoid jobs where you are simply one amongst many in a large organisation or institution.
You would only wind up creating crises in order [...]
[..] You would find
it very difficult to stifle your competitive spirit and your need to be larger-than-life in your
style and in what you are contributing to the world. Caught in a work situation where you are no
one special, you are likely to slide into depression or begin [...]
[..] You are interested in new
ideas, the more unconventional the better, and you come alive when you are able to follow your
vision of progress and attune yourself, not to existing norms, but to trends and ideas which are
just emerging from the collective psyche and will become [...]
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.
[..] You need to be careful of the
"prima donna" mentality which might lead to condescension toward those whom you perceive as not
especially creative, and which could also lead to a hostile and competitive atmosphere if you have
to deal with people who are striving for the same [...]
Although much of your energy and focus is on expressing yourself to the outer world, you are a
more introverted person than you might seem or believe yourself to be; and you need a strong
commitment to an inner reality to help you avoid being too influenced or inflated [...]
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.
