She is the married form of Goddess Parvati. She adorns herself with a half moon placed on her forehead in the shape of a bell. After getting married to Lord Shiva, that's the reason she is known as Maa Chandraghanta. She establishes justice and discipline. The colour of her body is golden bright and rides on a lion.🙏
