Budh

Budh (the Mercury) is one of the navagrahas (the nine planets personified). He, as described in Hindu mythology, was son of Tara, the wife of Brihaspati (the Jupiter) begotten on her by Som (the Moon). That is why he is sometimes said to have descended from the loins of Chandrama (an other name of Som). He had a son named Pururava by his wife Ila.
