Maori Gods Hine Pū Kohurangi
Hine Pū Kohurangi, (Deity of Mist and Fog) and her husband, Uenuku (God of Rainbows)
The Heavenly Mist Maid, the personified form of mist and fog. She and her sister Hine-wai lived in the celestial realms. In one myth, the sisters came down to earth in order to bathe in its waters. Ue-nuku, the rainbow, became enamored of the charms of Hine-pukohurangi and succeeded in making her his wife. She descended every night from the sky and proceeded to the abode of Ue-nuku, but always left him at early dawn and returned to her home in the heavens. Hine-wai accompanied her on her earthly visits and remained outside the abode of Ue-nuku to give warning of the coming of dawn. Hine-pukohurangi's aria (visible form of a deity) is the white mist seen rising from the body of the earth in the early morning.
