SHARDIYA NAVRATRI 2022: Day 1 of Navratri is Pratipada Tithi which marks the arrival of the Goddess. On the first day, Mata Shailputri is worshipped

SHARDIYA NAVRATRI 2022 DAY 1: The auspicious 9-day festivities of Sharadiya Navratri begins today on Monday, September 26. The festival is dedicated to Goddess Durga and falls during the onset of autumn or Sharad in the month of Ashwin, Shukla Paksha (waxing phase of the Moon), and hence the name. Day 1 of Navratri is Pratipada Tithi which marks the arrival of the Goddess. On the first day, Mata Shailputri is worshipped. She is also known as Hemavati and Parvati.

It is said that Goddess Sati after her self-immolation was born as Shailputri to King Himalaya. The name Shailputri is an amalgamation of two words- Shail meaning mountain and Putri meaning daughter, daughter of mountains. She is depicted with two hands, Trishul in the right hand and a lotus flower in the left hand.
