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.
[..] This quality of
sound, straight, clean acceptance of your own humanity gives you a chance of real contentment and
success in your work, because you are willing to work hard, pay your dues, take responsibility for
your mistakes, and demand fair rewards for your efforts. You don't [...]
[..] Most importantly, you need something of your own - an idea, a creative field, a craft,
a sound business structure - which reflects your unique identity in a practical form. Try to avoid
too much dependency on other people's resources. Your inner need to establish yourself [...]
[..] You can also be extremely loyal,
because you take nothing for granted and would rather work hard to make the best of an imperfect
situation than gallop off chasing castles in the air. As a manager or team leader, you are not
inclined to expect perfection from those who work [...]
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 underestimate your creative
thinking and overlook your imaginative gifts simply because you do not believe such intangibles
can produce material rewards. Yet you could be wrong. You may also reject your own aesthetic
sensibilities, putting up with less than you should [...]
[..] You are
none of these things, but you have a strong feeling for beauty and refinement, in your working
life as well as your personal environment. You also need harmony, and this may conflict with your
preference for direct dealings and a no-nonsense approach to work colleagues. Try to [...]
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.
