17 Mukhi Rudraksha & Devi Katayani
Rudraksha is said to be originated from the teardrops of Rudra. Rudra is a fearful full form of Bhagwan Shiva. 17 face rudraksha is governed by Katyayani Devi and Bhagwan Vishwakarma.
Katyayani Devi incarnated to kill Mahisasur by the divine grace of Brahma-Vishnu-Mahesh. She was incarnated as a daughter of sage Kātyāyana that is why she is known as Katyayani Devi.
Katyayani Devi is worshiped on the sixth day of Navratri. She is a fearful full form of Maa Durga. She killed Mahisasur to protect devtas, human beings, etc., So the wearer of 17 Mukhi Rudraksha is protected from all evils, negative influences of all dimensions i.e spirit world, etc.
17 Mukhi Rudraksha : Activates third eye (Ajna Chakra)
On the sixth day of Navratri, a worshiper mediates on Ajna Chakra which is responsible for Intuition, etc. This is the reason 17 Mukhi Rudraksha boosts Intuition. It gives the wearer a clear vision of what to do and what not to do.

The wearer of 17 face Rudraksha is guided by his intuition and at the same time circumstances are created to help and evolve him as a spiritual being. It gives him a very peaceful mind which is necessary for every kind of success.

Purification/Enegisation
There is a very rigorous and special process of Purification and Energisation. It is needed to unlock the maximum energy of a Rudraksha . It takes about a month to complete the process.
Purification & Energisation is a very important process without which no one should wear a Rudraksha. Rudraksha absorbs different types of energy before reaching you as it goes in many hands and many places.
So, nowadays this process becomes more important not only for unlocking the hidden potential of rudraksha but also for washing out unwanted energies.
Energy can not be unlocked without proper methods and constant practice. That’s why generally Rudrakshas do not operate in their full capacity. So, the next most important thing is Purification & Energisation of a Rudraksha
।।रुद्राक्षधारणच्श्रेष्ठम न किञ्चदापि विद्यते ।।
{ There is nothing best to wear Rudrakshas. Means Rudrakshas are the best solution for every kind of problem}
This sloka is mentioned in Shri Devi Bhagavatam (श्रीदेवीभागवतं महापुराणं).
