Reasons behind celebrating Maha Shivratri

Maha Shivratri is celebrated because of many reasons. The primary ones are:

Marriage of Lord Shiva & Goddess Parvati

Goddess Shakti incarnated as the daughter of King Himalaya and was named Parvati. Since a very young age She got influenced by the description, praises & recognition of Lord Shiva by all and She aspired to marry Him one day. When She grew up, Sage Narada told Her to perform Tapasya to please Lord Shiva and ask a boon from Him to accept Her as his wife.

Parvati followed what Sage Narada said and performed an extremely difficult Tapasya. At last, Lord Shiva was appeased and he promised to marry her. After a while, Lord Shiva married Goddess Parvati and that day was the 14th Tithi of Krishna Paksha of Magha/Phalgun month (as per the North & South Indian Hindu calendars). Since then, Maha Shivratri is celebrated as the marriage anniversary of Lord Shiva & Goddess Parvati and also as a day when Shiva (the male primordial energy) got united with Shakti (the female primordial energy).

Lord Shiva consumed 'Halahal Vish'

There came a time when the Gods and Demons decided to churn the 'Celestial Ocean' and distribute the holy nectar that comes out of it amongst themselves. While the Celestial Ocean was being churned, suddenly extremely dangerous poison called 'Halahal Vish' came out and it became a threat to the very existence of the creation. But the poison was so strong that no one could neutralize it, hence everybody prayed to Lord Shiva to save the creation.

Lord Shiva appeared in a huge form and gathered the poison in his hands. He then drank that poison but didn't let it go past his throat and situated it permanently in his throat which became blue immediately. From that day Lord Shiva came to be known by one more name- Neel Kantha (One with the blue throat)! As per the Hindu calendar, that day also happened to be that of Maha Shivratri when Shiva saved the creation.
