In such a situation, you have to visualize that you are touching those parts with your fingers of right palm.

It is said that While reciting the mantra, each body part mentioned against each mantra is to be touched with thumb and ring finger of the right palm. But some parts like Posterior side of right palm, Right elbow are not possible to touch with Right hand fingers. Can you please clarify then how to proceed?

Goddess Matangi is supposed to bestow higher knowledge. https://www.manblunder.com/articlesview/dasamahavidya-matangi-part-9

Which goddess is more geared towards bestowing knowledge of things like science, Nila Saraswati or Matangi?? I’m looking for a goddess to worship that is best suited for instilling certain types of knowledge intuitively.

Namascaram Swamiji, I completed browsing through the Meditation Series - 9 chapters and then decided to copy it on Word for leisurely reading again. The reason is, the lines have fragrance (like in the explanation of wholehearted prayer) and in the copying I want to add my notes - a form of self conversation; and gain further clarity. I am more inclined to scientific reasoning (61 now, in 2018); so when I found empirical observation and reasoning spread over the series; and reference to Gita (as well as a mild reference to Mr. Gorbachev, a courageous soul) I felt a sense of deep satisfaction. Thank you, Sir. I will be covering more of the topics and hope to be in touch with you over email soon. - Jaishankar Gokul

Thank you for this important translation. I especially appreciate the warning at the end of the Phalaśrutiḥ . Too many people are teaching powerful mantra with no kavacam or proper guidance, and it is dangerous. Your service is a gift to all beings. Sri Matre Namaha!

Siddhi mantra is derived from one's name and D20 charts. It has nothing to do with birth star.

The general answer to this question would be Śrī Siddhalakṣmī Stotram and mantra. Experts are of the opinion that one may benefit most by worshipping the deity/deities associated with one's birth star (moon's star at the time of birth). One can also argue that it should be the star associated with janma lagna (ascendant at the time of birth) etc. Most commonly followed is the moon's star. Of all the Mahāvidya-s, Kamalā Devi who is Mahālakṣmī is a clear choice for the wealth seekers. It must be noted that She is also one of the most difficult to please. Śrī Siddhalakṣmī is note other than śrī pratyaṅgirā. This kavacam might be the one best suited for you. I would recommend you to try the mantras and stotras of Śrī Siddhalakṣmī as well. We will post them very soon.

You can follow the Śrī Mahālakṣmī mantra nyāsa, that is specific to the mantra that you would like to use for Sampuṭīkaraṇa. The stotram with the sampuṭīkaraṇa is there in the Śrī Mahālakṣmī sādhana book published by Mohan Publications. You may ask them for more information. I don't think there is any particular vidhi/procedure that's highlighted in the book. It is not part of any tantra śāstra-s that I'm aware of.

It can be recited on it's own. An initiation is suggested, if the desire is to proceed towards the Śrī Caṇḍī Navākṣarī mantra sādhana. More than anything else, the love towards the Divine Mother is most important and everything else is secondary.
