I read this gAyatrii in durga sUktam. In the book "Lalita cult",
I remember reading that it is addressed to agni durga ( book gives
a list of different aspects/kinds of durga).
I have book on shrii vidya, it gives gaayatris for navagrahams also.
In fact sometimes disciples create gaaytri in a similar format
towards their gurus, I have come across one such gaayatri too.
