Goddess Chandraghanta, the third form of Navadurga, embodies valor, serenity, and protection. She is depicted with a crescent moon adorning her forehead like a bell (hence “Chandra-ghanta”) and rides a ferocious tiger, symbolizing courage and fearlessness. She carries weapons such as sword, trident, and mace in her multiple hands, yet her face remains calm and compassionate. Worshipped on the third day of Navaratri, Chandraghanta destroys negativity and bestows peace, bravery, and spiritual awakening. Her form inspires devotees to balance strength with grace and to remain composed during life’s battles while fiercely protecting their values.
