From north India, almost every woman observes Ahoi Mata Vrat for their children. Traditionally, the fervor and worship involved wishing for the wellbeing of sons. However, women today observe the fast for all their children. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Along with the women who have kids, this day is very important for couples who don\u2019t have children. People believe women who are unable to conceive or have suffered miscarriage must perform the Vrat of AhoiMata to get blessed with a child. This is one of the reasons why this day is called \u201cKrishnashtami\u201d. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_history_behind_the_Celebration_of_Ahoi_Ashtami\"><\/span>The history behind the Celebration of Ahoi Ashtami<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>People from numerous regions of the country tell a different story in account of the celebration of Ahoi Ashtami. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In accordance with the original tale, a woman lives in a village with her seven sons. One-day in the month of Kartika,&nbsp;their landlord decides to repair the house a few days prior to the festival of Deepawali. In order to decorate and renovate the house, she decides to go to the forest to fetch some soil. She accidentally kills a young porcupine with the spade. Upon this, the animal curses her to a similar pain and all of her children die. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The woman and her husband would not bear this pain and decide to kill themselves out of grief. They walk to their final pilgrimage and fall unconscious when they could not walk any longer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This makes the Gods feel piteous and tell them to go back and worship the holy cow and worship Ahoi Mata who is the protector of the offspring. The couple returns home and follows the path shown by God. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the day of Ashtami, the woman draws the image of a young porcupine and observes strict fast to worship Ahoi Mata. She asks for forgiveness for her mistakes. Upon this, Goddess Ahoi becomes happy seeing her dedication and gives her boon of fertility. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Tradition_and_Festivity_of_Ahoi_Ashtami\"><\/span>Tradition and Festivity of Ahoi Ashtami<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Parallel to Karva Chauth, the celebration of Ahoi Ashtami involves strict fasting for the entire day.

Also, it involves the images of young children and a porcupine. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Afterward, people sanitize the place of worship with the Holy water (Ganga Jal) and spread wheat on the floor\/wooden stool. Later, it is ritual to put a Kalash (pot) of water on the stool and it is covered with a Diya (earthen lamp). <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the Puja, women offer seven shoots of grass to AhoiMata and Sahi (porcupine). Along with this, there are specific foodstuffs for the puja which are 8 puris, 8 puas, and Halwa. People offer this foodstuff toBrahmin along with some money in the form of Dakshina. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Ending_Remark\"><\/span>Ending Remark <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The festival of AhoiAshtami is not very popular among Indians.
