The nine forms of Goddess Durga are worshipped during the nine days of Navratri. Adi Shakti Durga removes all the problems from the lives of her devotees. Among these nine forms, there is one Goddess who is known to remove all the problems related to marriage in a person's life. It is said that she can remove doshas such as Manglik dosha as well.

She was the daughter of Sage Katyayan and is therefore known as Goddess Katyayani. Goddess Katyayani is depicted with four hands, wherein she holds a lotus in her upper left hand, a sword in her lower left hand. Similarly, the right hands are in Abhaya and Varada Mudra. Wearing a yellow coloured saree, she sits on a lion.

Benefits Of Worshipping Goddess Katyayani

It is said that peace and prosperity prevail in a house where Goddess Katyayani is worshipped. A person facing problems related to marriage is also advised to offer prayers to Goddess Katyayani. Delayed marriage, frequent conflicts between husband and wife, not being able to find the right partner etc., all these problems are removed by observing a fast for her during Navratri. Her descriptions are also found in Kalika Purana. Goddess Katyayani is also considered the Goddess of strength. She is therefore also worshipped to build fearlessness.
