The usefulness of vocational astrology cannot be understated in our times. Your birth chart can pinpoint talent and also rate your career choices for success, luck and happiness, a service no vocational test can provide! Vocational astrology can help the vocationally undecided through the confusing woods of unlimited career paths. Judith Hill's handbook of astrological career selection techniques is the most thorough study of vocational astrology available today. Ancient and modern methods include: Midheaven planets; vocational houses and rulers; vocational rulerships by planet, house and sign; temperament (Sun, Moon and Ascendant signs); four elements and three modes; vocational time clocks (transits and progressions); chart synthesis; best/worst vocational planets; lunar Nodes; planetary families; and selecting your best careers. Judith Hill completes her work with a fascinating chart collection of more that 110 vocational horoscopes, plus a detailed A-Z careers listing by planet, sign, and house emphasis.

Move beyond a static interpretation of your natal chart to an understanding of how planetary cycles affect such things as one's career, finances, and opportunities. John Townley discusses the principles of dynamic astrology and shows how the cycles of the planets and important degrees in your chart play a continuing role in your life.

The term 'vocation' epitomises the quest to find your authentic voice in the world: the work you are meant to do, the work you love. It is greater than emotional security, financial remuneration or worldly success. Your vocation is soulful; a deeply felt longing to be of service, to follow your passion and to live a meaningful life. Vocation is more than a job, a career or a pastime; it is the X-factor that fulfils the urge to be creative and employed in purposeful ways. Astrology is an ideal career counsellor, as it maps out the paths and patterns of your vocation. Using astrological symbols and images, Vocation: the Astrology of Career, Creativity and Calling is your guide to participating in a more fulfilling career and lifestyle.

This fascinating book is an astrology guide - but it is not about foretelling your future. Much more practically, it is about understanding your own astrological strengths and weaknesses - those your stars have given you - so that you can make wise, long-term decisions about the career, the friends and the partners you were born for. It covers more than 800 professions and gives details of the star signs and matching traits of hundreds of household names, from Mohammed Ali to Catherine Zeta Jones. It is based on research involving more than 24,000 people. With it, you can begin to match your own stars to your key choices in life
