devataa, revatee nakshatram pooshaa devataa, ashwayujav nakshatram
ashwinav devataa, bharanee nakshatram yamo devata..."
[Taitiriya Samhita 4/4/10]
Then again, in the Vedaang Jyotish, Mantra 25 to 27 - all the 27
Naksahtra, starting from Krittikaa, have been enumerated and listed by
the names of presiding deities (and not Nakshatra). These are:
"agnih prajaapatih somo rudrro aditir brihaspatih
sarpashchai pitarashchaiva, bhagashchaiv aryamapi cha
savitaa twashtashcha vaayuschendragnee mitra eva chai
indro nirritiraapav vai vishvedevas tathaiva chai
vishnurvaruno vasavo ajaikpaat tathaiva chai
ahirbudnyastatha pusha ashvinav yama eva chai"
As per the Vedaang Jyotish, the 5th Mantra, the year started from Winter
Solstice, but the Nakshatra started from Krittikaa Nakshatra. We find a
similar trend in the Ved also. They are quite unrelated to the names of months etc.
