Rukmini (Sanskrit: रुक्मिणी, lit. 'radiant', IAST: Rukmiṇī) is a Hindu goddess and the first queen of Krishna.[7][8][9] She is described as the chief of Krishna's wives in Dvārakā.[10][11][12] Rukmini is revered as the avatar of Lakshmi and is venerated primarily in Warkari,[13] and Haridasa tradition, and additionally in Sri Vaishnavism.[citation needed]
Rukmini is mainly worshipped in Maharashtra and South India. The people of Maharashtra venerate her with Vithoba (a regional form of Krishna) and call her Rakhumai.[14] In South India, she is worshipped along with Krishna and his and his other primary consort Satyabhama. Her birthday is celebrated every year on the occasion of Rukmini Ashtami.[15]
