Navratri is devoted to the nine forms of Goddess Durga, which has already commenced on October 3, 2024, and is set to conclude on October 12, with Dusshera falling on the same day

Maa Chandraghanta is worshipped on the third day of Shardiya Navratri, and she is associated with the planet Venus in Hindu belief

According to Drik Panchang, after marrying Lord Shiva, Maa Mahagauri began wearing a half-moon on her forehead, leading to her being called Maa Chandraghanta

Maa Chandraghanta is depicted with ten arms and rides a tigress. She wears a half-moon on her head resembling a bell, which is why she is named Chandraghanta

She holds a trident, mace, sword, and Kamandalu in her four left hands, with her fifth left hand in the Var Mudra. In her four right hands, she holds a lotus flower, arrow, bow, and Jaap Mala, while her fifth right hand is in the Abhaya Mudra

Wearing grey is a lovely way to pay tribute to Maa Chandraghanta as this color balanced emotions, and keeping the person down-to-earth

For Goddess Chandraghanta, it is believed offering kheer is considered significant
