The Eight forms of Lord Ganesha -Ashta Vinayaka (Maha-ganapati, Varada-vinayaka, Chintamani-vinayaka, Girijatmaja-vinayaka, Vghneswara, Bala-vinayaka and Siddhi-vinayaka).
Goddess Lakshmi is supposed to give us 8 kinds of wealth (ASHTAAISWARYAMULU).. including money, grains, clothes, etc.
The Goddess Lakshmi, the consort of Vishnu has eight forms, Adi Lakshmi (primal), Dhanya Lakshmi (wealth of grains), Dhairya Lakshmi (wealth of courage), Gaja Lakshmi (wealth of elephants), Santana Lakshmi (wealth of children), Vijaya Lakshmi (wealth of success). Vidya Lakshmi (wealth of knowledge) and Dhana Lakshmi (monetary wealth).
Corresponding with these eight Lakshmis are the eight Shaktis of Lord Vishnu: Sridevi (Goddess of money), Bhudevi (Goddess of land), Saraswati (Goddess of knowledge), Priti (Goddess of happiness), Kirti (Goddess of fame), Shanti (Goddess of peace), Tusti (Goddess of pleasure) and Pusti (Goddess of health). Corresponding with them again are the eight consorts of Lord Krishna.
PS: Thanks for this post...made me read about the number 8 from the net and that's how gathered the above information. 😳
