Uma Samhita
The Uma Samhita is a significant section of the Shiva Purana, dedicated primarily to the goddess Uma, another name for Parvati, the consort of Lord Shiva.
Answer in Details
According to traditional accounts and scriptures related to Lord Shiva, he is primarily known to have two main consorts:1. Sati (Dakshayani): Sati was the daughter of Daksha Prajapati. She married Lord Shiva against her father's wishes. Sati later immolated herself due to her father's insult towards Shiva. After her death, Shiva went into deep meditation and grief.
2. Parvati: Parvati is considered the reincarnation of Sati. She is the daughter of Himavan (the king of mountains) and Mena. Through severe penance, Parvati earned Shiva's love and became his consort. She is also known by many names such as Uma, Gauri, and Shakti.
In some traditions, Parvati is depicted in different forms (like Durga, Kali, Annapurna), but these are considered manifestations of the same goddess, not separate wives.
Thus, Lord Shiva is generally regarded as having two wives—Sati and Parvati (who is Sati reborn).
