This piece is for young women navigating the intersection of tradition and self-worth—especially those who’ve been told that observing rituals like Solah Somwar Vrat will bring them the ideal husband. It is also for families, elders, and well-wishers who genuinely want their daughters to have a good life partner but may focus more on ritualistic action than personal development. Readers who feel disillusioned by surface-level practices or have silently questioned the outcomes of such vows will find this perspective refreshing and grounding.

They can use this article as a gentle guide to shift their mindset from simply hoping for someone ideal to becoming someone equally ideal. It encourages thoughtful action—spiritual, emotional, intellectual—so that the desire for a Shiva-like partner is met with equal commitment to becoming like Shakti. It also helps families support their daughters not just with faith, but with encouragement toward introspection, balance, and holistic growth.
