The fifth day of Navratri is dedicated to Goddess Skandamata. Moksha or salvation can be achieved by worshipping Skanda Mata. She is represented with four arms, seated on a lion. Since her son Karthikeya is also known by the name of Skanda she is known as Skanda Mata, the mother of Skanda. A person who worships Skanda Mata is also able to invoke the blessings of her son Skanda. However, one must do so with undivided attention and devotion in order to seek her blessings.
