Kalaratri Maata

Kalaratri Maa is considered to be one of the most destructive avatars of Mother Goddess Durga. The other fierce forms are Bhadrakali, Chamundeshwari, Bhairavi, and Chandi. She destroys evil to restore peace and Dharma. 

Maa Kalaratri has a dark complexion and has a third eye. She holds a scimitar and a thunderbolt in the upper and lower left hands, respectively. And she holds the Abhaya and Vara Mudra in the two right hands. This form of the Mother Goddess is mounted on a donkey. Kalaratri Maa governs Shani (Saturn), and hence, those suffering from the ill-effects of the planet worship her to rid themselves of its adverse influence.
