How vocational astrology can help.

Before I explain how how vocational astrology can help you, I'd like to provide a general introduction to astrology and how it can help you in any facet of your life. If you just want to know about vocational astrology then click on What Can Vocational Astrology Do for You?.

The treasure map

A horoscope, which is a chart cast for the exact time and place that you where born, is like treasure map which guides you in your quest for personal fulfillment. It identifies the location of the treasure, and assets, and obstacles in finding the treasure. It speaks about the astrological weather (the timing of transits ) during the journey, and it can identify some roads that can be used to get there.

It defines the contract that your soul agreed to before coming to earth, but it doesn't describe your soul.

Because it doesn't, an astrologer cannot predict how you will choose to pursue the quest, nor should an astrologer try. You have the freedom to go as far and as fast as you want on this journey. You can take the low road or the high road, or to meander on a side trip. Although the map may mark the treasure, the map itself is fluid, the destiny somewhat flexible-and therefore always possible to attain. Planning and executing you trip is more like playing jazz, with plenty of room for improvisation, than playing a classical piece, where you must play the notes exactly as written down.

A horoscope, just like a jazz piece, is never meant to be lived the same,- or lived in a specific way. It is meant to be lived creatively, and with passion and feeling.

Astrological Weather

Every person is affected by astrological weather, which astrologers call transits. Some are specific to a person, and some are experienced collectively. (The current recession is a collective response to some astrological rough weather.) While astrologers can predict the weather better than weatherman predict actual weather, astrologers are not as good at predicting how you or anyone will respond to that weather. An astrologer can accurately forecast a cloudy day for you, but its harder for them to predict whether you will spend it in a funk, or pack a raincoat and take an invigorating hike. Some people plant gardens in stormy weather and others get severly sunburnt on a sunny day. This is also make more complicated because you may be experiencing two kinds of weather at the same time ( in others words, a transit that encourages you to take risks and expand, and at the same time one which encourages you to reflect and take stock of your life)

Still, that astrologers sometimes can predict things with atonishing accuracy (sometimes knowledge of a person or countries circumstances combined with previous behavior and the nature of the coming weather makes certain event highly probable), means that people, especially when they are scared, resort to focusing on the predictive possiblities of astrology, instead of the descriptive ones.

This is not the best use of astrology or of any science. Currently with the economic crisis many people are asking economists when the current downturn will end, and how bad will it get. If instead they asked, How did we get here? What do we need to do to get out?, and How can we prevent this from happening again?, then I believe we would solve are economic woes much sooner. LIkewise, the best way for you to use astrology or an astrologer is get insight as what your dreams and challenges are, and to develop a sense of connection with the universe such that your energies and timing flows in harmony with it.

An astrologer at best, is like a good news reporter, who gives you information, which then allows you to make better choices for yourself- to play your musical instrument with greater passion and conviction, not one who dictates the notes for you.

A great deal of insight can be realized about how to live life, simply from a general study of astrology, without ever looking at your horoscope. One can get a lot of insight into achieveing financial security, the meaning of vocation, the neccessity of a congenial work environment, by studying the rulers and symbolism of the 2nd , 6th, and 10th houses in astrology.

Having said that, what can astrology tell you about yourself that can help your to make better choices in your life regarding career, money and work situations?

What can vocational astrology do for you?

Vocation astrology can help you understand what your specific function, in life and society, - note that this function is a little fuzzy and flexible. A group of conditions is identified which points to several career options (out of thousands), and a specific work environment within those careers - such as self employment or work for government.
Vocational astrology can identify blocks to pursuing vocation and suggest ways to overcome them.
Vocational astrology can identify self worth issues which can block you in actualizing your talents, achieving financial security, and it can tell you enough about those issues to give you a good handle on fixing them.
Vocational astrology can help you maximize your earning ability by highlighting your talents, and approaches that are best for you in spending money and investing your savings.
Vocational astrology can help you to develop a good work ethic, either for work or in pursuing education, and help in courses of study to pursue.
Vocational astrology can help you to understand how you relate to others and improve relations with co-workers and clients.

What vocational astrology cannot do for you!!

Vocationalrear astrology cannot predict whether you will be successful or not. That depends on you. Every horoscope can be lived successfully, and an astrologer can identify areas where you can be successful, but no astrologer can predict whether you do what you need to do to be successful.
Vocational astrology cannot micromange your career or money descisions. There are too many things about you the horoscope doesn't reveal, such as your sex, your SAT scores, your GPA, whether the company you work for will be in business two years from now, and the socioeconomic background of your parents, etc., to guide specifically. Vocational astrology is meant to give you general guidelines in making decisions in combination with other information, not to make decisions for you.
Vocational astrology cannot determine if you will be the next Einstein, or famous, or President of the US. There aren't any exceptional horoscopes, only ordinary horoscopes lived exceptionally. Astrology can only help you to be a better you, not predict whether you will be better than everyone else.
Vocational astrology cannot predict reliably when you will get a job, or a job promotion, or win an election.

Wishing that you accept all the blessings that you are given
