Birth Of Goddess Sita:
According to Hindu scriptures, Goddess Sita was born under the Pushya Nakshatra on a Tuesday. She is believed to be the earthly incarnation of Goddess Lakshmi. Sita Navami is celebrated exactly one month after Rama Navami, which marks the birth of Lord Rama.
Mythologically, Goddess Sita is said to have emerged from the earth when King Janaka of Mithila was ploughing the field as part of a ritual. As he tilled the land, he discovered a golden casket within which lay a divine infant — Sita. Since the child was found on tilled land, she was named Sita, and Janaka raised her as his daughter. Thus, the day is also known as Janaki Navami.
