Viṣṇu as the sun-god, Aśvatara as the Nāga, Rambhā as the Apsarā, Sūryavarcā as the Gandharva, Satyajit as the Yakṣa, Viśvāmitra as the sage and Makhāpeta as the Rākṣasa rule the month of Ūrja.

All these sun-gods and their associates are mentioned in divisions in the Kūrma Purāṇa, as follows:

Translation
Viṣṇu as the sun-god, Aśvatara as the Nāga, Rambhā as the Apsarā, Sūryavarcā as the Gandharva, Satyajit as the Yakṣa, Viśvāmitra as the sage and Makhāpeta as the Rākṣasa rule the month of Ūrja. Ūrja means Kārtika month. Viṣṇu is the sun-god, Aśvatara is the Nāga, Rambhā is the Apsarā, [Note: Verse 36 has Rambhā as the Apsarā also. Perhaps this is a mistake.] Sūryavarcā is the Gandharva, Satyajit is the Yakṣa, Viśvāmitra is the sage and Makhāpeta is the Rākṣasa.
