Goddess Mahagauri is worshipped on the eighth day of Chaitra Navratri. Ashtami is on April 9, 2022, this year. Goddess Shailputri, according to Hindu mythology, was extraordinarily beautiful and gifted with a fair complexion when she was sixteen years old.

She was titled Goddess Mahagauri as a result of this. She's been compared to the conch, the moon, and Kunda's white flower. With small arms, Goddess Mahagauri is represented. She holds Trishul with one right hand while keeping the other in Abhaya Mudra. On the eighth day of Navratri, Sandhi Puja is performed. During the Navratri Puja, Sandhi Puja is especially important. It is performed when Ashtami Tithi ends and Navami Tithi begins.
