Urania was, in Greek Mythology, the Muse of Astronomy. The name comes from the Greek word for heavenly or of heaven.
She is usually depicted with a globe in her left hand and a staff in her right which she uses to point. She is said to be able to foretell the future by the arrangement of the stars and was often associated with universal love and the holy spirit. en.wikipedia.org/urania/muse.
