*The Apsara is a female spirit of clouds and waters in Hindu and Buddhist mythology “a celestial nymph” or “celestial maiden”. Apsaras are beautiful, supernatural female beings. They are young and elegant and superb in the art of dance. They are often the wives of the Gandharvas, Indra's court musicians. They dance to music made by the Gandharvas, usually in the palaces of the gods, entertain and sometimes seduce gods and men. As guardians of fallen heroes, they can be compared to the Valkyries of Norse mythology. As etherial beings that inhabit the sky and are often depicted in flight, or in service to a god, they can be compared to angels. Apsaras are said to be able to change their form at will and rule the fortunes of gambling and gambling. They are also associated with fertility rites.
