Mangala Aarti to Goddess on the first Friday of Shravan month

On the first Friday of the holy month of Shravan, devotees perform a Mangala Aarti (auspicious morning prayer) to honor the Goddess (Devi)—especially forms like Parvati, Durga, or Lakshmi. This special aarti is offered to seek blessings for prosperity, protection, and well-being. Fridays in Shravan are considered highly sacred for Goddess worship, and the Mangala Aarti marks the beginning of the day with devotion, chanting, and offerings of flowers, incense, and lamps.
