Who is Maa Chandraghanta? Know significance
The married incarnation of Maa Parvati is Maa Chandraghanta. According to Drik Panchang, after Maa Mahagauri married Lord #Shiva, she began to adorn her forehead with a crescent or #Chandra. She became known as Goddess Chandraghanta. She is shown riding a tigress and holding 10 hands, four right hands holding a lotus flower, an arrow, Dhanush and Japa Mala, the fifth right hand in Abhaya Mudra and the fifth left hand in Varada Mudra.

It is said that Maa Chandraghanta is Maa #Parvati in her tranquil form. The sound of the #moon and the bell on her forehead are said to drive away all kinds of spirits from her devotees. Legend has it that the sound of her bell has vanquished many demons during battles, sending them to the abode of the God of Death.
