#Uttaraphalguni #nakshatra is the 12th nakshatra out of the total 27 nakshatras. The deity God of this nakshatra is ‘ #Bhaga’, who is one of the 12 sons of Sun’s mother #Aditi.

The 5th/6th-century BCE Nirukta (Nir. 12.13) describes Bhaga as the god of the morning. In the Rigveda, the Bhaga is named as one of the Adityas, the seven (or eight) celestial sons of Aditi, the Rigvedic mother of the gods. In the medieval Bhagavata Purana, the Bhaga reappears with the Puranic Adityas, which are by then twelve solar gods.
