 Devasena and Valli , the consorts of Murugan , do not have independent temples dedicated to them . Their images are installed in shrines of Murugan , where they flank their Lord on either side . They are worshipped with Murugan and receive offerings as part of his worship ( see Puja ( Hinduism ) ) . A fast is observed on Tuesdays to placate the consort goddesses . Festival icons of Murugan used during temple festival processions generally depict him with his consorts .
