Acchoda was Satyavati in her previous birth. She belonged to the clan of ancestors called Barhishada Pitrus. She did intense tapas and the Pitrus appeared before her. But she got attracted towards one among them. When the ancestors realized this, they cursed her to take birth on earth as Satyavati. She got relief from the curse after she married King Shantanu and gave birth to two sons. Then she returned to Pitruloka and is now worshiped as Ashtaka.
