I. Introduction
This short extract gives you a taste of the personal "Child's Horoscope" by Liz Greene. The small samples taken from various chapters convey an impression of the complete horoscope (18-25 pages) which can be
ordered as an E-Horoscope or a bound book in the AstroShop.
Most parents long to provide their children with the best they can offer on every level. But what is "the best"? The birth horoscope of a child is a map of patterns and potentials which exist in that child from the moment of birth. Encouragement of
these potentials in childhood can help a child to develop greater confidence and hope for a future which is more authentically his or her own, so that greater happiness and fulfillment are possible later in life.
II. Your Child's Psychological Type
In this concise chapter Liz Greene describes the child's general temperament and his characteristic approach to life.
The rich array of individual abilities and potentials portrayed in Mantovani's birth horoscope is set against the background of an inherent temperament bias which may be partly hereditary but is also the reflection of a mysterious essence which
belongs to him alone. This mysterious "something" is already at work within Mantovani, helping him to develop his personality along the lines which are healthiest and most natural to him.
[..] Parents and family members may need to be careful of taking advantage of his
generous heart through making him feel responsible for their own well-being for he will accept such responsibility without question, to his great detriment later. Mantovani needs time and space [...]
III. The Characters in the Story
This is one of the most comprehensive chapters of the "Child's Horoscope". This short version touches only on a few of the central characters in your child's personality. The complete report provides a detailed description on 7-9 pages.
The tension between the main characters in Mantovani's inner story is the source of energy which provides the impetus for growth, movement and the formation of a healthy individuality.
[..] But he is a very private person, and this will become more evident as he grows up. It is important that his privacy is respected, not
invaded or dismissed, for his great fund of creative potential arises from his capacity to commune quietly with his inner world. As he [...]
[..] Even if he cannot articulate what he perceives, he instinctively knows when
people are essentially kind and decent or essentially hard and unfeeling, whatever their outer behaviour. This instinctive wisdom comes from deep within him, and parents may learn a great deal from [...]
Hidden traits
Mantovani's intense self-sufficiency and individualistic nature are sharply contrasted by a hidden need for approval from others. But as he gets older he may express very little of his secret longing to belong. He will convey his emotional needs to
those individuals he [...]
IV. Emotional Needs and Patterns in Relationships
This chapter contains valuable information on the child's basic needs and the relationship with his parents. The complete horoscope covers this chapter on 5-6 pages.
Every child has particular ways in which he or she experiences and seeks emotional contact with others, and this may not always accord with other, more dominant personality traits.
[..] Sounds including music are of primary importance to him, and so is the tone of voice in which others express themselves. He will invariably fill any silence with chatter and an effort to share his
experiences. Words are magical, carrying not only meaning but a reassurance [...]
[..] But as Mantovani
gets older his need will be revealed as something deeper, for he looks to his father for a quality of emotional solidity which is just as important as practical reliability. Of course no parent, however hard-working and responsible, can exhibit
granite-like [...]
V. Fears and Insecurities
Knowing about their child's fears can help parents to react with love and understanding in challenging situations. The child's main fears and insecurities are described on 2-3 pages in the full report.
VI. Looking toward the future
Many parents wonder about the future of their child. Every child has his own way to develop his potential. What this means for the individual child is described on 2-3 pages in chapter six of the complete Child's Horoscope.
