Symbolism & Significance
Symbolism of Saptha Mathakkal
The Saptha Mathakkal are revered as manifestations of Goddess Shakti, created to assist the gods in battling demonic forces. Each goddess embodies the energy of a particular male deity—Brahma, Vishnu, Shiva, Indra, Skanda, Yama, and Narasimha—and together, they represent collective feminine power. Their combined presence in this golu doll set signifies protection, unity, and fearlessness.

Significance within Golu Tradition
In Navaratri golu bommai displays, the Saptha Mathakkal are often placed on the top tiers to honor their mythological significance and their association with the festival's themes of Shakti and divine victory. Their presence among your kolu bommai arrangements invites divine strength and serves as a visual storytelling of feminine heroism.

Navaratri & Golu Display Context
• Navaratri, a nine-night celebration dedicated to the goddess Durga and her forms, culminates in Vijayadashami, symbolizing the victory of good over evil.
• During this time, homes across South India arrange stepped displays using golu dolls, where each level showcases divine figures, mythological stories, and everyday scenes.
• Deities like the Saptha Mathakkal occupy prominent positions in the kolu bommai setup, signifying divine protection and cosmic balance.
• These displays are central to social and spiritual life during the festival, as families invite friends and neighbors to view their dassara dolls, share sweets, sing bhajans, and celebrate together.

History of Golu
The tradition of setting up golu bommai dates back to the Vijayanagara Empire, where royal courts curated elaborate doll arrangements to honor the gods. This practice was passed down to households across Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, and Karnataka by the Nayakas and Poligars. Today, the golu doll display remains a treasured family ritual, connecting generations through art, devotion, and storytelling.

The Legend of Saptha Mathakkal
According to the Devi Mahatmya, the Saptha Mathakkal emerged from the fierce energy of Goddess Durga to assist her in the battle against the demon Raktabija. Each goddess was born from a different male deity and brought her own power to the battlefield. As Raktabija multiplied each time a drop of his blood touched the earth, it was Chamundi (one of the Saptha Mathakkal) who ultimately vanquished him by drinking his blood before it could fall. Together, these goddesses represent the cooperative force of divine energy that sustains dharma (cosmic order). Their story is one of strength, sisterhood, and spiritual resilience.
