Aylmer says "Georgiana, you came so almost perfect from the hand of Nature" (Hawthorne). The author refers to God through nature, it is evident that every word “Nature” in this story begins with a capital word. God is symbolized in the story as Nature. So Aylmer was not satisfied with God's creation, nor grateful to it. He sees Georgiana's birthmark as an earthly imperfection. He wants her to be perfect, literally like an angel. Aylmer's arrogance has blinded him, so he decides to take matters into his own hands, defying Nature. He tries to do this in every possible way, but he knew deep in his heart that this would lead to some consequences: the death of Georgiana. The omen was clear from the beginning of the story, through Aylmer's dream. The reader was not really surprised by Georgiana's death. The moral of the story is that husbands were ready to do everything possible to satisfy their desires and increase their reputation among women.
