Oct 11 - DAY 3 - #Navaratri <https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/navaratri> . Goddess Chandraghanta - “The Goddess of the Half-Moon, like a bell." . This fierce Goddess destroys your deepest fears and negative self–beliefs. She is the destroyer of demons who cause fear, depression, and anxiety. She gives courage and clarity and protects us from theft and anything that robs us of our vitality and power. . She is sometimes pictured with 10 swords surrounding her and wearing a bell. When she is invoked her bell immediately begins to ring, frightening away all negative entities and filling the subtle atmosphere with her protective waves of Shakti (divine feminine creative power). . In her hands she holds – . A SWORD : symbol of Knowledge that cuts through Ignorance and frees us from self-doubt. . A TRIDENT: symbol of the three types of suffering she removes -Physical, Mental, and Spiritual. . A MACE (wand) : Symbol of her power and authority. . A POT : a symbol for purified body and mind that is capable of holding the nectar of bliss. This pot (kamandal) is carried by sadhus as a symbol of a simple and self-contained life. A ROSARY: for prayer and devotion. . A BOW and ARROW: She controls Shakti, the universal energy. The tension of potential is the bow and the power of action is the arrow. . A LOTUS: A symbol of the blooming spirit from that comes from the mud of worldly greed and egotism. .
