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 understand
very well the poet John Donne's dictum that no human being is an island, and you want to know that
you are doing your share to help. This does not mean that you are a "do-gooder" with vague ideas
about how to save the world. You are more sensible than that, [...]
[..] You are receptive to new ideas
emerging from the collective psyche, and have the gift of intuiting what is coming in the future
long before others are aware of it. You are a kind of prophet in your own way, and this intuitive
gift should be utilised in some field of work [...]
[..] You might work well within the advertising and marketing field, although your humanitarian
concerns demand that you promulgate only those products and ideas which benefit others rather than
exploiting them. You have a fine sense of timing, which some people might call "luck" [...]
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 idealism and desire
to see progress in some sphere of human endeavour focuses you on transforming and reforming; and
sometimes you may find it hard to accept the fact that not everyone wishes to be changed or
challenged in this way. In your work environment, you are [...]
Your revolutionary spirit is quick to perceive the injustice in life and the unfairness with which
those in authority can treat those who do not have the power to fight back. You are the enemy of
hypocrisy and small-mindedness, and your work needs to allow you to feel you [...]
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.
