There is a Temple for Prathyangira at Marattandi, near Puducherry/Pondicherry, on the Tindivanam Road.
Prathyangira Homam is performed every month on Shukla Paksha Ashtami (Waxing Moon).
The Temple has a 72 feet Idol of Pratyangira Devi outside the temple and a small temple is inside.
Lord Vinayakar’s idol changes its color to black and white once in every six months.
During Utharayan (March-June), the idol is black,
and in Dakshiyana (July-Feb) idol turns to white.
This temple came to be known as ‘’Miracle Ganesh Temple.
There is a well inside the temple complex and the color of the water too changes every six months. When the idol is white, the water changes to black and vice versa!
