Kanya Pujan:
Kanya Pujan, an integral aspect of Chaitra Navratri, holds immense importance. This ritual is conducted on Ashtami and Navami, essential dates within the Navratri timeline. The fasts observed during Navratri are considered incomplete without the performance of Kanya Pujan. It is customary to conduct the puja on the day of worship; thus, if one worships on Ashtami, Kanya Pujan is performed on that day, and likewise on Navami if one's worship falls on that specific day. Notably, Kanya Pujan on both Ashtami and Navami is regarded as highly auspicious. During this ceremony, girls up to the age of 10 are revered, symbolizing the embodiment of the divine feminine energy.
Havan:
Havan, a sacred fire ritual, holds profound significance during Navratri celebrations. Devotees believe that by performing Havan, they invite great auspiciousness into their lives. It is believed that the Mother Goddess fulfills the desires of her devotees and blesses them with good health through this ritual. In instances where visiting a temple is not feasible or if one prefers to conduct the ceremony at home, performing Havan using a simple method is considered appropriate. As Navami approaches, the performance of puja on this day is deemed highly propitious. Traditionally, Durga Ashtami and Mahanavami during Chaitra Navratri are accompanied by the performance of Havan. Navami, signifying the culmination of Navratri, is customarily concluded with Havan, symbolizing the completion of the ritualistic worship.
