Maa Chandraghanta is Devi Durga’s third manifestation, and she is worshipped on the third day of Navratri. She is known as Chandraghanta because she has a Chandra or half-moon on her forehead in the shape of a Ghanta (bell). Maa Chandraghanta is a goddess of peace, serenity, and prosperity with three eyes and ten hands bearing ten different swords, weapons, and arrows. She brings justice to the world and provides Her adherents the confidence and strength to overcome obstacles.

Her appearance may be that of a powerful source who is always killing and suppressing the bad and wicked. Maa, on the other hand, is tranquil, compassionate, and peaceful to her worshippers. You will get enormous respect, renown, and glory if you worship Maa Chrandraghanta. Maa can also assist you in spiritual awakening. Her idol, which represents both beauty and bravery, provides you with the strength to resist negative energy and any problems from your life.

To worship Goddess Chandraghanta, you must do simple rites. You should worship all of the Gods, Goddesses, and Planets in the Kalash before praying to Lord Ganesha and Kartikeya, as well as Goddess Saraswati, Lakshmi, Vijaya, and Jaya, Goddess Durga’s family members. The pooja should end with Goddess Chandraghanta being worshipped, followed by a passionate prayer to Lord Shiva and Lord Brahma.
