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 not likely to want to work for a company which pollutes
the environment or produces ugly objects which intrude upon the beauty of the natural world. Since
most large companies involve a mixture of different types of people, some of whom are bound to
fall short of [...]
[..] You might think of hybrid professions such as
art or music therapy, which could allow you to build a bridge between your strong aesthetic
feelings and your longing to be useful. Working with nature could also be rewarding, either
through a field such as garden design or [...]
[..] Your imaginative abilities may also be channelled into
creative writing. However rational you aim to be, never turn your back on your intuitive
abilities; and try to find work which makes use of them rather than ignoring or discounting them.
For example, if you are interested [...]
IV. Know Your Limits

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 also need to allow your own work to be less than perfect,
and not expect so much either of yourself or of others. No one gets it right all the time. Some of
your insistence on perfection arises from a deep anxiety that, if you do not get it right, you
will be criticised [...]
[..] Despite your love of reason, and your wish to maintain a high code of ethics in your
dealings with others, you can feel things passionately and can experience powerful likes and
dislikes toward co-workers. You may also have a strongly aggressive streak in your nature which
[...]
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.
