Goddess Katyayani, the 6th form of the NavDurga, is
worshipped on sixth day of Chaitri Navratri, i.e. on Monday. She is also
referred to as the warrior goddess.
The goddess plays the role of a saviour for those, who are struggling
to find their life partners. She ensures harmony and peace in married life. It
is also believed that worshiping her on Navratri can help eradicate all the
negative effects of planets in horoscope.
According to mythologies, Sita and Rukmini had worshipped
goddess Katyayani for a good husband.
Skanda Purana mentions her being created out of the
spontaneous anger of Gods, which eventually led to slaying the demon, Mahishasura,
mounted on the lion.
Devotees offer Honey to the Goddess along with sandalwood
pulp, fruits, betel nuts, fragrant garlands, and incense to seek her blessings.
