As per Hindu belief, planet Shukra is governed by Goddess Chandraghanta and those who worship her on Tritiya tithi of Navratri, get rid of all obstacles, worries, pain, etc.

Sharad Navratri 2021 has begun, and devotees will observe the third day of this sacred festival, which is dedicated to Goddess Chandraghanta, on October 9.

She is the married form of Goddess Parvati, as she began wearing half Chandra on her forehead after marrying Lord Mahadeva, and she has been known as Chandraghanta ever since.

She is mounted on a tiger and wears a crescent moon on her brow. Chandraghanta is a name for a woman who has a moon on her forehead. 

Praying to her brings a lot of good luck. On the wedding day, Shiva arrives at King Himavan’s palace in the most terrifying form, accompanied by the strangest wedding procession. 

Parvati’s mother and other relatives are taken aback when they see Lord Shiva in such a terrifying form and witness his strange marriage procession.

To spare her family and Lord Shiva any embarrassment, Parvati takes on the terrifying form of Chandraghanta. 

She then prayed to Shiva and persuaded him to take the form of a handsome prince and make his wedding procession more noble. 

Shiva reappeared as a dashing prince encrusted with jewels. Maa Durga’s married form is Chandraghanta. 

She is seen holding ten weapons in her arms, including Trishul, Lotus, Gada, Kamandal, Sword, Bow, Arrow, Japa Mala, Abhayamudra, and Gyan mudra, and she is ready to fight demons and evil forces. 

The compassionate Goddess can come to her devotees’ aid at any time and remove their ailments in an instant.

The sound of her moon bell drove away many demons along the way, allowing devotees to live happy and peaceful lives. 

Goddess Chandraghanta is said to be the ruler of the planet Shukra. As a result, Chandraghanta will provide all of life’s pleasures and make people feel at ease. 

You will be blessed by Chandraghanta, who will shower you with wealth and prosperity, as well as a luxurious life. Maa Chandraghanta’s favourite flower is jasmine.
