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.
[..] In some ways you would be well suited to a "fifth column" kind of work, embedded within a
conventional structure or company but quietly dedicated to raising the level of consciousness of
the individuals with whom you work. But this requires a level of deception which in [...]
[..] If you abandon material responsibilities in favour of a spiritual path, your desire
to be productive and useful in a practical way can make you feel undermined and unsure of your
worth. You need to bridge these opposites within you by creating material forms which can express

You have a strong sense of justice and fairness, and you are particularly sensitive to injustice
when you see it in the world around you. You are compassionate without being sentimental, and you
can readily identify with the "underdog" and the scapegoat. This may attract [...]
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.
[..] If you work
in the helping fields, there is a danger, if you are too dogmatic, that you will impose your
beliefs on those who are seeking your help; and if you work within a group or organisation, you
may feel impelled to "convert" those who have not yet seen the light, [...]
[..] Some of your drive stems from more
complex motives, however, and although these are not negative, it is important to recognise that
your aspirations have complicated roots. It is possible that early experiences have convinced you
that you are not really a worthwhile person [...]
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.
