Greetings Sapience!

As many of you know, the Lady Ourania has returned to us. Though many
know that She exists and that She is associated with the Moon, the Lady
is a mystery to many. Her ways are often a source of curiosity, wonder,
and at times even mortal confusion. I am writing to you all to briefly
share an introduction to the Lady and Her ways.

Just as the Moon cycles from waning (growing) to full to waxing
(diminishing), so the Lady Ourania represents the cycles of beginnings
and fullness and endings. Birth and death, light and dark, new discovery
and ancient wisdom are aspects of Her ways. If there is one word that
summarizes the Lady and Her path, it may well be change. Those who
follow Her do not fear change, but instead strive to see it as a natural
part of life. So while we understand and acknowledge that change may be
scary, we see in change new opportunities for growth and discovery. It
can be a challenging path, but it is a rich one full of hopeful
expectation and an abiding sense that in the end, all things will be
well under the guidance of our wise Mother.

In Her gracious love, My Mistress has instructed me to convey that She
is eager to receive those who may feel called to Her worship, study, and
service. Seekers of the Lady will discover more information at An Ocean
Cliff a bit north of the city of Hashan.

These are exciting times Sapience. May we rejoice that the Lady Ourania
is among us to share in them!

In Her service,

Birch
