| 1 || تیشتر|| Tishtar|| The one connected with the three stars|| Tištrya-, m., was an Ancient Zoroastrian astral deity associated with rain and water. This good is the protagonist of the myth of the liberation of the watrs, to which the 8th Yašt 8 of the Avesta, named also Tištar Yašt, is dedicated. This god appears as a man, a horse, and a bull over 30 nights probably starting with the period of his heliacal rising. This star Sirius was linked to the return of springs and opposed by the planet Mercury (Tīr) and the shooting stars in later Pahlavi sources. Sometimes Tištar and Tīr are associated and confused In the later Mazdean literature.
