Lord Shiva shields you from all the negativities around. According to Puranic texts, Samudra Manthan took place in the Shravan month, when the gods and the demons churned the ocean. In response, fourteen divine items emerged out of the ocean. As a surprise, Halahala also came out as a by-product. The poison was partaken by Shiva to save the world from destruction. He held Halahala in his throat and this turned his throat blue. Since then, he came to be attributed as Neelkantha.
This eventually came to be the reason of observing Sawan Somvar Vrat in honor of Lord Shiva. You can also observe Sawan Somvar Vrat in two ways.
Savan Somvar : This is the fast that is observed on Mondays, in the month of Savan.
Solah Somvar : Solah Somvar Vrats include the observance of sixteen fasts on consecutive Mondays. The starting of fasts of Solah (sixteen) Somvars is considered as highly auspicious in the month of Savan. Reciting Solah Somvar Vrat Katha is considered highly auspicious for women.

Although, Lord Shiva is associated with the role a destructor, he is also considered to be the divine power that protects us from worldly evils. Worship Lord Shiva with a pure heart, and Lord Shiva will bring you a heavenly shield. This would definitely protect you from the negativities around you.
