That is the main reason why it\u2019s a good idea to know the sounds for bringing these higher beings, their characteristic energies and powers into our lives.<\/p>\n<p>The divine feminine archetypes available during Navaratri are called Durga, Lakshmi and Saraswati. Together these lovely celestial beings can fix all our problems and bring us protection, wealth and higher knowledge, respectively.<\/p>\n<p>How to connect with the archetype of protection &#8212; Durga<\/p>\n<p>In the evening, sit quietly with your eyes closed, after taking a shower (optional) and surrender to Durga. Offer red flowers and light a ghee lamp and some incense.

Recite the following sounds to invoke the Goddess archetype of wealth:<\/p>\n<p>Recite This Sound: <span style=\"color: #993300\">Shreem<\/span> 27 times<\/p>\n<p>After chanting, ask again for what you need. Trust that you will receive. Say thank you. Keep your eyes closed for a few more minutes and then slowly come out of your meditation.<\/p>\n<p>How to receive help from the archetype of divine knowledge and higher education \u2013 Saraswati<\/p>\n<p>Sit quietly after offering white flowers, a ghee lamp and incense. Offer some fruit. Ask for help in your studies or spiritual evolution.<\/p>\n<p>Recite <span style=\"color: #993300\">Aim<\/span> 27 times.<\/p>\n<p>After this practice, keep your eyes closed for a few minutes and stay open to any message, vision or new understanding.
