Bhaga

Bhaga (IAST: Bhaga) is the Vedic god of fortune, as well as a term for "lord, patron" and "wealth, prosperity". Bhaga is an Āditya, a group of societal deities who are the sons of Aditi. Bhaga's responsibility was to make sure that people received a share of the goods in life. He is associated with his brother, Aryaman, regarding the expectation of a successful marriage. Elsewhere, the Bhaga continues as a god of wealth and marriage, in a role that is also attested for the Sogdian (Buddhist) equivalent of the Bhaga. Bhaga is also the presiding deity of the Pūrva Phalgunī Nakshatra.
