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.
[..] However much you are let
down by others, you refuse to let go of your fundamental belief in the healing power of kindness.
You would probably not be happy working on your own, but would blossom in an environment where you
could work to heal others or diffuse conflicts and [...]
[..] This is a lesson you will
have to learn if you wish to turn your gift into a vocation and make it work for you in worldly
terms. You would probably be unhappy working at a job where the main emphasis is on financial
remuneration, or where you cannot feel a sense of connection [...]
[..] Your instinctive tendency to side with the "underdog", and to feel compassion for
anyone you perceive to be unfairly treated, could attract you to working in spheres where you
could champion fairness and civilised behaviour - the legal profession, the helping and healing
[...]
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 may drift
and fail to focus on a direction which you know to be right, simply because you do not wish to
alienate others or experience the isolation which is inevitable when any clear definition of
separateness is required. You may also fail to demarcate your boundaries, [...]
Your receptivity to others, and your strong need to be needed, may sometimes make it hard to say
"No" in situations where others want something from you. Because your work is likely to involve
you with others, you may meet many situations where you can be exploited by those [...]
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.
