According to mythology, Abhimanyu’s son King Parikshit died due to the bite of the serpent god. To avenge his father’s death, his son Janamejaya performed the Naag Daah Yagya to kill the snakes. In which all the snakes of the world started burning, the snakes took refuge in Aastik Muni for their protection. The sage explained to King Janamejaya and stopped this yagya. The day this incident happened was the Panchami of the Shukla Paksha of Sawan. That day the snakes were saved due to Aastik Muni. After this, the celebration of Naag Panchami festival started.
