First we will see the meaning of navratra . nav means nine and ratra means night.
In Hinduism, Durga (Sanskrit: "the inaccessible" or "the invincible") or Maa Durga (Mother Durga) is a form of Devi, the supreme goddess. Goddess Durga is the mother of Ganesha, Kartikeya. She is thus considered the fiercer, demon-fighting form of Shiva's wife, goddess Parvati.
Nine also a divine number ,nine is a divine shakti. In these nine days we do a puja of nine devis and get blessed by them. Maa durga is a maha shakti who is a goddess of gods. Worshiping of this divine helps us to overcome from our sins. Like in astrology if your rahu period is running, sub period of rahu,or having kaal sarp dosha and you are facing lots of problems like distraction, dipression, not getting favours after doing a lot, changing of place, losses in business, debt etc then you should do or perform puja in these nine days and read durga saptshati and see the result.
This path is too good to get a results in your favour. Young people who perform this Pooja will excel in studies while the unmarried will be able to find a good life partner, married ladies will have a happy married life and their families will prosper, the childless will have children and have a happy and prosperous life.
