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 are likely to be
fastidious in your working habits, and therefore need a working environment where chaos is minimal
and you can set your routines according to your own natural rhythms. You are also likely to be
fastidious in your response to work colleagues. While you [...]
[..] Working with nature could also be rewarding, either
through a field such as garden design or through a hobby which allows you to commune with plants
and animals to find the sense of order and peace that is so necessary to your soul. You are a
private person who is not really [...]
[..] You can be generous with time, energy, and
encouragement, and this equips you to work at nurturing others' gifts. But first consider your own
creative aptitudes, for you yourself may need your time, energy and encouragement as a top
priority. Make sure that your work does [...]
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 your work, arises from this very strength, for your aspiration to beauty and order can
make you overly sensitive to situations at work which are part of the ordinary chaos of everyday
life. You may sometimes lack tolerance toward others [...]
[..] It is unlikely that you will
ever entirely lose your self-containment, however angry you become. But you are capable of subtler
forms of destructive behaviour which are likely to be quite unconscious but create a definite
atmosphere around you, if you are not able to be [...]
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.
