Gayatri Mantra is a sacred Vedic mantra dedicated to worshipping Savita Devi for bestowing longevity and wealth. Some people view Savitr or Savita as a masculine deity. Some as Divine Femininity. I believe Savitr or Savitri Devi represents the female energy of the Sun God Surya.
Gayatri Mantra
OM bhUrbhuvaH suvaH tat saviturvarENyaM bhargO dEvasya dhImahi dhiyO yOnaH pracOdayaat
ऒं भूर्भुवः सुवः तत सवितुर्वरॆण्यं भर्गॊ दॆवस्य धीमहि धियॊ यॊनः प्रचॊदयात,
सविता देवी ! आप इस दुनिया को रोशन कर रहे हैं। आप इस पृथ्वी, इस आकाश और ब्रह्मांड को प्रकाशित कर रहे हैं। इतना ही नहीं, आप तीनों लोकों के अपने-अपने स्थानों पर उचित अस्तित्व के लिए जिम्मेदार हैं। और मेरी बुद्धि को प्रेरित करने के लिए दयालु बनें ताकि हम आपके सर्वशक्तिमान और शानदार ब्रह्मांडीय खेल को जान सकें।

And meaning of the Gayatri mantra can be stated as follows:
“Goddess Savita Devi ! You are lighting this world all over. you are lighting this earth, this sky and the universe. Not only that you are responsible for the proper existence of the three worlds in their respective places. And be kind to inspire my intellect in order to enable me to know your Omni present and splendorous cosmic play.”
(Word to word meaning: OM = primordial sound; bhUH= earth; bhuvaH = heavens; suvaH = carrying; tat = yoke; savita = (energy of the) sun; varENyam = excellent,desired; bharga = splendor,radiance; dEva = god, shining; asya = of this; dhI = know; ahi = heaven and earth; dhiya = intelligence; O, O, naH = my; prachOdayaat = inspire. )
(The terms Bhu, Bhuva, and Suva appear to symbolize the Mullokas, the three Cities of Tripuras. And Savita Devi is said to illuminate these three Lokas. This demonstrates Savita Devi’s dominance over the Three Lokas, akin to Triambakeswari.)
