100-Miscellanea
Bhavishya Puraan, Pratisarg Parv, 1st Part, 274-275
Chandra Vansh
Bhaagvat, Padm and Vishnu Puraan say that Chandramaa had his son Budh from Brihaspati's wife Taaraa illegally, then when Il was roaming in the forest belonging to Shiv and Paarvatee, he turned into a woman and became Ilaa.
