Check out the amazing craftsmanship of our ancestors in the female sculptures at Bhuleshwar Temple, which was built around 1230 A.D. by King Krishnadevray of the Yadava dynasty. This ancient Shiva temple is really old and beautiful.
Now, let’s talk about why women in India wear toe rings. These toe rings are usually made of silver and are worn in pairs on the second toe of both feet.
According to Ayurveda (a traditional Indian system of medicine), there’s a nerve on the second toe that connects directly to a woman’s uterus. So, when a woman wears a toe ring on that toe, it puts a little pressure that is believed to help regulate the menstrual cycle and keep the uterus healthy.
Traditionally, married women wear the ring on the second toe, while unmarried women wear it on the third toe. It’s said that unmarried women wearing a silver toe ring on the third toe may help ease period pain. These traditions connect us to our rich heritage and have been passed down through generations.
