During the rituals for a Navagraha puja, I saw that the avahana was done for the stars (nakshatra) of the yajamaana and his family. I didn't pay much attention until I heard that the devatha for the star "Magam" (or Makhaa) being the Pitrs! Now I am curious to know where from these devathas for each each Nakshatra are assigned. Same question goes for the Navagrahas.

          For Navagrahas one such scriptural source is the Matsya Purana.




          A Vedi(platform) is to be prepared with white rice grains with Surya
          Deva the Center, Mangal in the South, Brihaspati in the North, North
          East with Budha, East as Shukra, South East as Chandra, West as Shani,
          South West as Rahu, and North West as Ketu. The Adhi Devatas to each
          of the Planets are as follows: Shiva for Surya, Parvati for Chandra,
          Skanda for Mangal, Vishnu for Budha, Brahma for Brihaspati, Indra for
          Shukra, Yama for Shanaischara, Kaala Devata forRahu and Chitragupta
          for Ketu. The Pratyabhidevatas respectively are Agni, Varuna, Prithvi,
          Vishnu, Indra, Aindri, Prajapati, Sarpa and Brahma.
          Besides, Vinayaka,
          Durga, Vayu, Aakasha, and Ashvini Kumars and these are also to be
          invoked by individual names.




          For the Nakshtras, the scriptural source is Krishna Yajurveda.



          The Taittiriya Samhita 4.4.10 gives the following list of the usual 27 Nakshatras and their ruling deities:




          Krittika (Agni),
          Rohini (Prajapati),
          Mrigashirsham (Soma),
          Ardra
          (Rudra),
          Punarvasu (Aditi),
          Tishya (Brihaspati),
          Ashresha (Sarpa),

          Magha (Pitrs),
          Phalguni (Aryama),
          Phalguni (Bharga),
          Hasta ( Savita),

          Chitra (Indra),
          Svasti (Vayu),
          Vishakha (Indragni),
          Anuradha (Mitra),

          Rohini (Indra),
          Vichrtau (Pitarau),
          Ashada-Purva (Apaha),

          Ashadha-Uttara (Viswadeva),
          Shrona (Vishnu),
          Shravishtha (Vasava),

          Shatabhisha (Indra),
          Proshtapada (Ekapada),
          Proshtapada (Ahirbudhna),

          Revati (Pusham),
          Ashvayujau (Ashvinau),
          Apabharani (Yama).




          Note that in the above list, all the 27 Nakshatras, that we know in Jyotisha, are mentioned. But few are having unfamiliar names. For example, we are familiar with Shravana but the list mentions it as Shrona. Similarly, we know about the Bhadrapadas but here they are mentioned as Proshtapadas.




          (Thou art) Rohini the Naksatra, Prajapati the deity; Mrgaçirsa the
          Naksatra, Soma the deity; Ardra the Naksatra, Rudra the deity; the two
          Punarvasus the Naksatra, Aditi the deity; Tisya the Naksatra,
          Brhaspati the deity; the Açresas the Naksatra, the serpents the deity;
          the Maghas the Naksatra, the fathers the deity; the two Phalgunis the
          Naksatra , Aryaman the deity; the two Phalgunis the Naksatra, Bhaga
          the deity; Hasta the Naksatra, Savitr the deity; Citra the Naksatra,

          the Naksatra, Indra and Agni the deity; Anruradha the Naksatra, Mitra
          the deity; Rohini the Naksatra, Indra the deity; the two Viçrts the
          Naksatra; the fathers the deity; the Asadhas the Naksatra, the waters
          the deity; the Asadhas the Naksatra, the All-gods the deity; Çrona the
          Naksatra, Visnu the deity; Çravistha the Naksatra, the Vasus the,
          deity; Çatabhisaj the Naksatra, Indra the deity; Prosthapadas the
          Naksatra, the goat of one foot the deity; the Prosthapadas the
          Naksatra, the serpent of the deep the deity; Revati the Naksatra,
          Pusan the deity; the two Açvayujs the Naksatra, the Açvins the deity;

                For Navagrahas one such scriptural source is the Matsya Purana.




                A Vedi(platform) is to be prepared with white rice grains with Surya
                Deva the Center, Mangal in the South, Brihaspati in the North, North
                East with Budha, East as Shukra, South East as Chandra, West as Shani,
                South West as Rahu, and North West as Ketu. The Adhi Devatas to each
                of the Planets are as follows: Shiva for Surya, Parvati for Chandra,
                Skanda for Mangal, Vishnu for Budha, Brahma for Brihaspati, Indra for
                Shukra, Yama for Shanaischara, Kaala Devata forRahu and Chitragupta
                for Ketu. The Pratyabhidevatas respectively are Agni, Varuna, Prithvi,
                Vishnu, Indra, Aindri, Prajapati, Sarpa and Brahma.
                Besides, Vinayaka,
                Durga, Vayu, Aakasha, and Ashvini Kumars and these are also to be
                invoked by individual names.




                For the Nakshtras, the scriptural source is Krishna Yajurveda.



                The Taittiriya Samhita 4.4.10 gives the following list of the usual 27 Nakshatras and their ruling deities:




                Krittika (Agni),
                Rohini (Prajapati),
                Mrigashirsham (Soma),
                Ardra
                (Rudra),
                Punarvasu (Aditi),
                Tishya (Brihaspati),
                Ashresha (Sarpa),

                Magha (Pitrs),
                Phalguni (Aryama),
                Phalguni (Bharga),
                Hasta ( Savita),

                Chitra (Indra),
                Svasti (Vayu),
                Vishakha (Indragni),
                Anuradha (Mitra),

                Rohini (Indra),
                Vichrtau (Pitarau),
                Ashada-Purva (Apaha),

                Ashadha-Uttara (Viswadeva),
                Shrona (Vishnu),
                Shravishtha (Vasava),

                Shatabhisha (Indra),
                Proshtapada (Ekapada),
                Proshtapada (Ahirbudhna),

                Revati (Pusham),
                Ashvayujau (Ashvinau),
                Apabharani (Yama).




                Note that in the above list, all the 27 Nakshatras, that we know in Jyotisha, are mentioned. But few are having unfamiliar names. For example, we are familiar with Shravana but the list mentions it as Shrona. Similarly, we know about the Bhadrapadas but here they are mentioned as Proshtapadas.

                Naksatra, Soma the deity; Ardra the Naksatra, Rudra the deity; the two
