Customs

Titles
Sister - Refers only to women who have attained the third rank within the Ahibanu. It can be used on its own or preceding a name, and it is a sign of respect. All neophytes and initiates should address Sisters with the title unless specifically directed otherwise. (Colloquially, outsiders to the temple tend to refer to the women within it as Sisters, and sometimes use 'Sister' to address an initiate or neophyte. As they are not expected to know the inner workings of the temple, they are rarely corrected.)

Most Blessed - Refers only to the High Priestess of a temple. Typically, this is only used in a formal setting or by people who are not part of the temple.

Blessed - Can refer to Sisters or Initiates. Typically, this is only used in a formal setting or by people who are not part of the temple, and it often precedes a name.
