Namaste,

Look at our beautiful Mataji! We celebrate her different moods, her various Avataar and honor her motherly love on all of us. Last Satsangh, we talked about every day of Navaratri highlighting a form of the female energy. 
On Day 1, She is Shaila Putri - Daughter who wanted to be born to a father that appreciated her. Color to wear is Gray. 
Day 2,
Brahmacharini- A girl who is a student. Color to wear is soft Blue.
Day 3 is Mataji as
Chandraghanta - She is a bride, she has done all the Tapasya she needs to do to marry Lord Shiva. She is his equal. Color to wear for purity is White.
Day 4 is
Kushmanda - Mataji is in creation mode, she gives shape to the universe by smiling and creating an egg. Color to wear for fertility is Red.
Day 5 is
Skandamata - She adopts  Skanda, she is in fostering mode. Color to wear is dark Blue. 
Day 6 Mataji is 
Katyayani - When injustice has to be corrected, Ma Parvati gets her courage using anger energies. She killed Mahishasura as this energy. Color to wear is Yellow. 
On Day 7, she is
Kaalaratri - She is ferocious, uncontrollable and protects who are in her shelter. Color to wear is Green.
Day 8th
Maha Gauri, Here Mataji is a wise woman who defeats the ignorance and worries of decision making by granting Intelligence and tenacity to fight our issues. The color, dark Green.
Day 9 is
Ma Siddhidatri - As a mature woman of age, she has now raised kids, been a wife and helped the community. She has created kids who contribute to the goodness of the world. She is like your grandmother who has through good behavior and example gained all Siddhis, She can now bless you the same. Color to wear is Purple.
