celestial realms
Abodes of gods
Celestial realms are the heavens—the dwelling places of gods, angels, or enlightened beings in religious and mythological traditions.
The phrase suggests domains beyond the physical sky, spheres of divine existence arranged in hierarchies: The soul ascended through the celestial realms.
In fantasy and gaming, celestial realms are planes of existence inhabited by benevolent supernatural entities.
