Dewi Sri bagi masyarakat tradisional Jawa dijadikan symbol Dewi Padi atau Dewi kesuburan. Baik kesuburan tanah pertanian maupun kesuburan suami isteri. Dengan kepercayaan tersebut, pada rumah-rumah masyarakat tradisional disediakan ruang khusus untuk bersemayamnya Dewi Kesuburan yang dinamakan Pedaringan atau Pasren. Pedaringan adalah tempat tidur yang ditata indah terletak di senthong tengah, ruangan paling belakang di bangunan induk. Di pedaringan inilah dilakukan ritual doa untuk memohon agar Dewi Sri berkenan tinggal dan berbaring di pedaringan yang telah disediakan. Karena dengan demikian dapat dimaknai bahwa keluarga yang bersangkutan senantiasa dilimpahi kesuburan dan kesejahteraan lahir batin. Walaupun jaman sekarang Dewi Sri tidak lagi ditempatkan di Pedaringan Senthong Tengah, makanan atau rejeki dan kesejahteraan masih tetap menjadi tujuan utama orang hidup. Oleh karenanya orang berlomba-lomba mengejar Dewi rejeki kesejahteraan. Bahkan banyak orang menempatkan diri sebagai hamba dari Dewi Sri. Ia rela menggendhong Dewi Sri kemana-mana seperti layaknya binatang tunggangan. Tanpa disadarinya, ketika orang mengejar kesuburan kesejahteraan secara lahir, sesungguhnya jiwanya sendiri menjadi kering kerontang.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
