Greene is one of the chief writers for astro.com, the website for her company Astrodienst.

Greene has written several astrology books based on Jungian psychology[1] and other forms of depth psychology, contributing to an application of astrology called Psychological astrology.

In 1985 Greene started co-operating with Alois Treindl, founder of Swiss-based Astrodienst, on the development of computer-generated horoscopes, which would present a person with a chart synthesis, simulating Greene's own method of horoscope interpretation during a personal reading.[2] Two years later, in 1987, they presented the Psychological Horoscope Analysis, which was followed by several other interpretations.

With Howard Sasportas, Greene co-founded the Centre for Psychological Astrology in London.[3][4] After Sasportas' death in 1992, astrologer Charles Harvey took over as co-director,[2] until his death in 2000. Greene continues directing the organisation. In addition, she also directs CPA Press, a publishing company that focuses on specialist astrological works.

Greene's book Saturn: A New Look at an Old Devil, in 1976, applied Jungian psychology to revise the image of Saturn as a planet of misfortune, recasting it in a more Jungian image.[citation needed]

Greene wrote a historical novel in 1980, The Dreamer of the Vine, dealing with the themes of Nostradamus and the Jesus bloodline.[5] Her remaining books have been on topics applying principles of psychoanalysis to astrology (Psychological astrology). Many are transcripts of her lectures, and many are co-authored, especially with Howard Sasportas.

In addition to giving lectures and directing a certificate programme in psychological astrology, Greene has continued to produce many books, all of which are now published by her own company, the CPA Press. She has also co-authored, with Juliet Sharman-Burke, a deck of tarot cards, the Mythic Tarot.

Her books include Saturn: A New Look at an Old Devil, and the philosophically-inclined The Astrology of Fate. The Outer Planets & Their Cycles, The Luminaries (with H. Sasportas) and The Dark of the Soul are other examples of her work.

In April 2010 the History Department of the University of Bristol, UK, granted her a doctorate degree for her thesis 'The Kabbalah in British Occultism 1860-1940'.[6]
