Navratri is a major festival of Hindus, which is celebrated twice a year. A total of four Navratri are celebrated throughout the year, Chaitra Navratri which is celebrated with the beginning of Hindu New Year. Sharadiya Navratri, this is the most famous Navratri which is celebrated before Dussehra. Ashada Gupta Navratri which is celebrated in the month of June or July. Magh Gupta Navratri which is celebrated in the month of January to February. Now Chaitra Navratri will be celebrated after a few days.
In the year 2025, Chaitra Navratri starts on Sunday 30 March. Navratri is dedicated to Maa Durga. In these nine days, nine forms of Maa Bhagwati are worshiped and archana. Devotees fast in these days, and worship different forms of Maa Durga. But do you know that Vastu Shastra has special significance in the worship of Navratri. By following these easy Vastu rules, we can get the blessings of Maa Durga.
The house should be cleaned well before the Navratri starts. Old items or Bhanghar kept in the house should be excluded from the house immediately. Because these things promote negative energy in the house and obstruct positive energy. Clean the place of worship thoroughly, install the idol or picture of the mother on the first day of Navratri and the incense lamp July so that the atmosphere remains fragrant.
As we all know that directions have special significance in Vastu Shastra, in such a situation, in Chaitra Navratri, there should be special care of directions. For worship, northern or north east i.e. northeast angle direction will be considered the most auspicious. Install the mother's idol or urn in this direction. By reciting worship in this direction, positive energy remains and it is said that this direction is called the direction of Devasthan.
Keep in mind that while worshiping, your face should be towards east. Gods reside in the east direction. Positive energy comes from this direction. Apart from this, this direction is also considered a source of progress in power and spiritual. So keep this special in mind.
Before installing the idol or picture of the mother, it is necessary to make a swastika sign at the outpost. Whenever we do some auspicious work or start any kind of worship lesson, first of all we should make a sign of the swastika. If you prepare a wooden outpost then it will be considered even better. If you use mango wood to prepare the post, it will be even more auspicious.
Devotees in Navratri definitely run unbroken lights, in these days the unbroken light has special significance. During the burning of unbroken flame, take care of the direction, it is not that you burn the unbroken flame in any direction. It would be considered auspicious to burn the unbroken light igneous angle i.e. in the southeast direction. In this direction, the fire is the place of the god.
Three metals utensils have to be used during worship, take special care of this. Use copper or brass utensils during worship. If possible, you can also use a silver plate or water vessel. Offer fresh red flowers to Maa Durga daily.
