As the vibrant festivities of Shardiya Navratri continue, we reach the seventh day, dedicated to the awe-inspiring Maa Kalaratri. This fierce incarnation of Adi Shakti, the primordial cosmic energy, is worshipped on Wednesday. The auspicious color of the day is royal blue, a hue that embodies elegance, wealth, and strength.
Goddess Kalaratri is revered as the vanquisher of darkness and ignorance, symbolizing immense power and protection. Her name itself signifies ‘the night of time’, signifying her power to conquer the darkness of negativity and fear.
Devotees believe that wearing royal blue on this day fosters confidence and inner strength, reflecting the protective aura of Maa Kalaratri. It is a day to invoke her blessings for courage and to ward off negative energies.
With each passing day of Navratri, we delve deeper into the profound symbolism of these nine nights, celebrating the divine feminine and its transformative power.
