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 might also make a fine craftsman, for you appreciate refinement,
delicacy, and high quality; and if you have talent in the visual arts or with materials such as
wood or stone, this too could prove a rewarding field in which to work. You are not the world's
most confident [...]
[..] You are not especially long on trust,
and may not respect those for whom you work within a hierarchical organisation. You need to know
that there is room to climb, and nothing is likely to frustrate you more than the sense that you
are stuck and unable to progress. Status means [...]
[..] This anxiety may spring from early educational experiences, for you
do not enjoy presenting your ideas before a group, and you are not at your best when expected to
participate in team activities. You prefer to work solo, quietly and at your own pace, seeking
depth of understanding [...]
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
also aim too low, because you fail to recognise that a positive attitude and a willingness to use
intuitive hunches to pursue possibilities might take you much further. Your fundamental outlook
toward work is responsible and practical, and sometimes you may forget [...]
[..] There are times when
this need for control is positive and necessary, but there may be other times when it is actually
detrimental, not only to your own work, but also to those who work with or for you. You may find
it difficult to treat colleagues as equals, because 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.
