Goddess Bhagamalini,
the intimate creative power of the Divine Feminine
Goddess Bhagamalini is the second Nitya Devi in the lunar cycle of the Tantrarāja Tantra and other Shakta scriptures. Her name can be translated as “She who wears the garland of bhaga”, where bhaga refers both to the divine yoni (source of creation and feminine power) and to fortune, beauty, radiance, and sacred pleasure. She represents the intimate, creative power of the Divine Feminine and is deeply associated with sensuality, abundance, charm, and magnetism.
Bhagamalini also means “garlanded with luck”, “garlanded with fame” or “garlanded with the sun”. She brings auspiciousness and victory. confident in Herself, as this lunar day is now governed by earth element.
Goddess Bhagamalini, radiant and auspicious, presides over Dvitiya Tithi, the second lunar day, which marks the moment when the Moon first becomes visible after the New Moon. This appearance symbolizes emergent light, hope, and visibility. Her name carries powerful meanings such as “garlanded with luck,” “garlanded with fame,” and “garlanded with the Sun.” These reflect her role as a goddess who brings victory, abundance, and recognition. She supports our desires and inspirations to take root in the world and blossom into tangible results. Associated with the earth element, Bhagamalini grounds us and gives structure and stability to our dreams.
In some Tantric scriptures, she is described as a form of Saraswati, the Goddess of sacred speech, arts, learning, and intuitive wisdom. Her blessings are not only material, such as wealth, fertility, and protection, but also spiritual and intellectual. She brings clarity of speech, refined expression, and the ability to share our message in a way that touches others. As she rules the first visible phase of the Moon, known as Chandra Darshan, Bhagamalini empowers us to step out of the shadows and make our presence known. Her blessings are often sought for fertility, creative expression, protection during pregnancy, and triumph over inner or outer challenges.
In tantric practice, a special herbal wine is sometimes offered to Bhagamalini as a symbol of this act, honoring both Her victorious nature and the price of cutting through illusion and chaos. Her story reminds us that true clarity sometimes demands intensity, and that protecting the truth may require fierce love and uncompromising strength.
Goddess Bhagamalini holds the power to dispel the darkness of ignorance and clear it from our mind. She brings clarity, wisdom, and the ability to see things as they truly are, helping us move forward with awareness and purpose.
Tantraraja presents Goddess Bhagamalini as glowing with a soft red radiance and dressed in vibrant green robes. Her green attire is linked to the energy of the north, a direction tied to growth, learning, and abundance. Just as trees absorb sunlight and convert it into nourishment through their leaves, Bhagamalini helps us internalize divine insight and turn it into creative momentum and progress in our lives.
In her hands, she holds powerful emblems of transformation. The noose represents our tendency to cling to desires, while the goad helps us steer away from what no longer serves us. The sugarcane bow, symbolizing the mind, holds tension and sweetness at once, while the five floral arrows suggest the pull of the senses and the colourful diversity of human longing. She also holds a pink lotus and a blue lotus, symbols of love and wisdom, showing her ability to nurture both emotional beauty and mental clarity. Through these tools, she gently guides us to shape our vision into reality with grace and discernment.
The Dakshinamurti Samhita paints Goddess Bhagamalini as being "wrapped in the forest's embrace" seated in the heart of blooming wilderness. Just as nature quietly transforms sunlight and rain into vibrant growth, Bhagamalini embodies the life-giving force that animates and nurtures all creation. Dressed in green, she is the pulse of fertility and prosperity, the unseen current that pushes ideas and longings from the invisible into form. She is the cosmic gardener, turning seeds of inspiration into tangible life. All that is born, grows, or flourishes, flows through Her power. To feel the essence of Bhagamalini is to witness the soft, unstoppable force that brings everything to life.
In the Bhavanopanishad, Goddess Bhagamalini is linked to ahamkara, the principle of ego or self-identity. She brings the energy of victory, visibility, and recognition. However, her shadow side is known as manada, or pride. Naturally radiant and confident, she does not easily accept defeat or correction.
As the force behind influence and attraction, Bhagamalini's power can lead to a deep attachment to being seen and admired. This is why her energy must be approached with mindfulness and humility. She encourages us to examine the root of our actions. Are we expressing ourselves from a place of truth and purpose, or from a need for validation and applause?
Bhagamalini teaches us that true attraction comes from authenticity. When we act from the heart and use our talents to benefit others, our light spreads naturally. But when pride takes over, it clouds our wisdom and disconnects us from the source. Her blessings are strongest when we align confidence with humility and allow our voice to be a channel for something greater than ourselves.
According to the Matsya Purana, Goddess Bhagamalini is one of the mind-born forms of the Divine Mother, created with a specific purpose: to stop the proliferation of darkness. During the fierce battle with the demon Andhakasura, whose boon ensured that every drop of his spilled blood would give rise to another demon, the battlefield became overwhelmed with his replicas. The Divine Mother invoked Bhagamalini Devi for her precious help, who drank the blood before it could touch the ground, halting his endless multiplication. This act of fierce intervention reflects Her protective power, but also reveals a shadow aspect: Her capacity to be ruthless when necessary, even "heartless" in pursuit of higher order and victory.
Meaning of your lunar day
Children of dwitiya Tithi often carry a natural magnetism, confidence, and charm. They may be gifted communicators, artists, teachers, or leaders who draw others toward them. Just as the Moon begins to shine after its dark phase, these individuals have the potential to emerge from silence into visibility and attract the attention, success, or support they need.
One might think of a speaker who captivates a crowd, an artist whose work finds recognition, or a visionary whose voice inspires collective change. These are reflections of Bhagamalini Devi, spreading the fragrance of inspiration into the world.
People born on Dvitiya tithi often carry a vibrant curiosity and a thirst for knowledge. Their minds are quick, their questions many, and their desire to understand the world is strong. This mental agility can open doors to creativity and insight, but if left unchecked, it can lead to restlessness or confusion. Since this lunar day is co-ruled by the Moon, mastering the mind becomes essential. They can also sometimes be a bit stubborn or rigid in their thinking. They may have a tendency to see the world in clear-cut terms, labeling things quickly as “right” or “wrong,” “good” or “bad.” Their strong inner drive and desire for clarity can lead them to form opinions rapidly and hold on to them firmly. While this determination gives them strength, it can also make it harder for them to embrace the gray areas of life. Learning to sit with nuance and listen deeply to others' perspectives helps them grow into their fuller potential.
Goddess Bhagamalini, associated with this tithi, teaches that true wisdom does not always come from the outside. She guides us to quiet the noise, to turn inward, and to listen to the still voice of the heart. For Dvitiya natives, peace is found not in having all the answers, but in learning to sit with the questions until they blossom from within. Through patience and introspection, their vibrant curiosity becomes a path to inner truth.
They often carry a natural desire to succeed and shine, but along with this comes a hidden fear of failure or being overshadowed. Their pride can be both a strength and a weakness, it fuels their ambition, but can also make it difficult for them to accept defeat or criticism. Because they often identify strongly with their accomplishments or public image, setbacks may feel personal. However, when they learn to embrace humility and see challenges as part of their growth, their confidence becomes unshakable and they embody the radiant grace of Bhagamalini Devi.
The story of Goddess Bhagamalini "drinking the blood of Her enemies" can also be seen as a metaphor for absorbing and neutralizing the negative forces we encounter. Yet, this intensity and focus on victory can sometimes manifest as emotional detachment or seeming heartlessness, especially when the goal becomes more important than the people involved. For Dvitiya tithi natives, this energy may translate into a certain emotional sharpness or even a tendency toward addictive behaviors, particularly when inner balance is lost. Learning compassion, moderation, and presence helps them use their strong will for healing rather than control.
