This festival dedicated to Maa Durga will start on October 15 and continue till Tuesday, October 23, 2023. The festival of Vijayadashami i.e. Dussehra will be celebrated on 24 October. During the nine days of Navratri, nine forms of Goddess Durga are worshiped with rituals. Although Mata Rani rides a lion when she comes to earth during Navratri, her ride changes. The ride of Maa Jagdambe's arrival depends on the starting day of Navratri. That is, on the basis of the day Navratri starts, their ride is decided. Similarly, the departure ride is decided on the basis of the day she leaves. In such a situation, let us know about the different vehicles of Mata Rani and their signs in Navratri…

Which are the vehicles of Maa Durga?
According to the different days of Navratri, Maa Durga's vehicles are doli, boat, horse, buffalo, human, and elephant.

What will be the vehicle of Mata Rani this Navratri?
This time Sharadiya Navratri is starting on Sunday and when Navratri starts on Sunday, the vehicle of Mother is an elephant. The arrival of Mata riding on an elephant indicates more rain.

Mata's ride and its importance
According to belief, if Navratri is starting on Monday or Sunday, then Maa Durga's vehicle is an elephant, which indicates more rain. On the other hand, if Navratri starts on Tuesday and Saturday, then the mother's vehicle is a horse, which indicates a change of power. Apart from this, starting from Thursday or Friday, Mother Durga comes sitting in a doli, which indicates bloodshed, orgy, loss of public wealth. Navratri starts on Wednesday, then the mother comes riding on a boat. The arrival of the mother aboard a boat is auspicious.

Maa Durga's departure ride and its signs
If Navratri ends on Sunday and Monday, then Maa Durga rides on a buffalo, which is not considered auspicious. This means that sorrow and disease will increase in the country. On the other hand, when Navratri ends on Saturday and Tuesday, Mother Jagdambe goes riding on a chicken. Riding a rooster indicates an increase in sorrow and suffering. Navaratri ends on Wednesday and Friday, so the mother returns on an elephant, indicating more rain. Apart from this, if Navratri ends on a Thursday, then Maa Durga rides on the human being, which indicates an increase of happiness and peace.
