So? It's from The Starlight! She's a looney. She sees the future but refuses to speak of it in words that anyone understands, because "the Stars don't speak in certainties" or some nonsense. She has a uselessly vague foreboding omen for practically every situation!
[At least this explains why Childermass got the letter instead of the Ringmaster.]
