What is Maha Navami?
Maha Navami is the ninth day of Sharad Navratri and the last day of Durga worship before Dussehra. In the south it is also Ayudha Puja, when tools and instruments are worshipped.
How the date is decided
It is Ashwin Shukla Navami at madhyahna, joined with Ashtami (Nirnaya Sindhu), so it can share a day with Durga Ashtami.
Where traditions differ
Bengal and many holiday calendars keep Maha Navami on the Navami current at sunrise, which can be the next day.
