Sharadiya Navratri begins today, October 3. The festival of Navratri is celebrated for a full 9 days. During this, nine different forms of Maa Durga are worshiped. Every year Sharadiya Navratri starts from the Pratipada date of Shukla Paksha of Ashwin month. Autumn season starts in the month of Ashwin itself, hence it is also called Sharadiya Navratri. This time Navratri will conclude on 12th October with Vijayadashami. Durga Mata will be bid farewell on this day. So let us now know which goddess will be worshiped on which day for the nine days of Navratri.

1. First day of Navratri - Maa Shailputri

On the first day of Navratri, Goddess Shailputri is worshipped. This form of Goddess Durga is called Shailputri because she was born as the daughter of Parvataraja Himalaya. Goddess Shailputri has a trident in her right hand and a lotus flower in her left hand. Goddess Shailputri rides a bull. This form of Goddess Shailputri is extremely divine and charming. According to beliefs, worshipping Goddess Shailputri removes the bad effects of the moon.??

3. Third day of Navratri - Maa Chandraghanta

On the third day of Navratri, the third form of Maa Durga, Maa Chandraghanta is worshipped. The Goddess is known as Chandraghanta because a bell-shaped half-moon adorns her forehead.

5. Fifth day of Navratri - Maa Skandmata?

On the fifth day of Navratri, it is customary to worship Skandamata, the fifth form of Maa Durga.

She is holding her son Skanda in her upper right arm and her lower right hand and one left-hand holds a lotus flower, while the other left hand of the mother is in Abhaya Mudra.
