Who dwells in the three worlds of manas, buddhi, and chitta.
Bhandasura, who made all the world impotent and started troubling devas. The devas then sought the advice of Sage Narada and the Trimurti , who advised them to seek the help of Nirguna Brahman, Sat-Chit-Ananda (Existence-Consciousness-Bliss). Nirguna Brahman divided itself into Kameshwara and Kameshwari and re-created the entire universe as it was before.

Bhairavi

'Terror'
anger || jealousy || hatred
Represents the power of death. She embodies the force of destruction 
wherever there is creation.
She is the creator in muladhara chakra in the form of kamarupa, which consists of three dots forming an inverted triangle.
The innermost triangle of muladhara chakra is known as kamarupa. The three points of the triangle have three depictions, connected to each other. Each of the sides represents the Divine will, Divine knowledge and Divine action, accordingly. This is why Bairavi is also Known as Tripura Bhairavi, represents knowledge and civilization.
Chhinnamasta

She symbolizes both aspects of Devi: a life-giver and a life-taker. She is considered both a symbol of sexual self-control and an embodiment of sexual energy, depending upon interpretation. She represents death, temporality, and destruction as well as life, immortality, and recreation. The concept carries a universal truth, "Death carries life, Life is nourished by death and Life is only justifies death"
Dhumavati

Goddess of poverty, frustration, and despair. Dhumavati is associated with Nirriti, the goddess of disease and misery, and Alakshmi, the goddess of misfortune and poverty.
Dhumavati is said to manifest herself at the time of cosmic dissolution (pralaya) and is "the Void" that exists before creation and after dissolution. While Dhumavati is generally associated with only inauspicious qualities, her thousand-name hymn relates her positive aspects as well as her negative ones. Dhumavati is described as a great teacher, one who reveals ultimate knowledge of the universe, which is beyond the illusory divisions, like auspicious and inauspicious. Her ugly form teaches the devotee to look beyond the superficial, to look inwards, and seek the inner truths of life. A legend from the Shaktisamgama-Tantra describes that Sati commits suicide by jumping in Daksha's yagna and Dhumavati rises with a blackened face from the sad smoke of Sati's burning body. She is "all that is left of Sati" and is her outraged and insulted avatar.
Bagalamukhi

'Pitamvari Devi'
A demon named Madan acquired Vak-siddhi, by which whatever he said came true. He misused it to trouble humans and murder people. The gods beseeched Bagalamukhi. The goddess grabbed the demon's tongue and immobilized his power. She changes the sentence into silence, knowledge into ignorance, power into powerlessness, defeat into victory. Devi Bagalamukhi gives one the power to put a bridle on his enemies. She blesses one with the power of confident and decisive speech. Bagalamukhi Devi is also known as 'Brahmaastra Roopini' and 'Stambhan Devi'.
Matangi

Uchchhistha Chandalini / RajaMatangi
Matangi is regarded as a Tantric form of Saraswati.
Uchchhista Matangi is often associated with pollution, especially left-over or partially eaten food considered impure in Hinduism. She is often offered such polluted left-over food and is in one legend described to be born from it. Matangi is described as the leftover or residue, symbolizing the Divine Self that is left over after all things perish. As the patron of left-over food offerings, she embodies inauspiciousness and the forbidden transgression of social norms. Matangi is often described as an outcaste and impure. These social groups deal in occupations deemed inauspicious and polluted like the collection of waste, meat-processing, working in cremation grounds, and tribal people. She represents equality as she is worshipped by both upper and lower caste people.
Raja Matangi represents the power of the spoken word as an expression of thoughts and the mind. She also relates to the power of listening and grasping speech and converting it back to knowledge and thought. Besides spoken word, she also governs all other expressions of inner thought and knowledge, like art, music, and dance. Matangi is described as dwelling in the Throat chakra—the origin of speech—and on the tip of the tongue. She is also associated with a channel called Sarasvati from the third eye to the tip of the tongue.
Kamala / Kamalatmika

Goddess Kamala is considered the most supreme form of the goddess who is in the fullness of Her graceful aspect. She is not only compared with Goddess Lakshmi but also considered to be Goddess Lakshmi. She is also known as Tantric Lakshmi. The goddess in the form of Kamala bestows prosperity and wealth, fertility and crops, and good luck. Hence She is Devi of both Dhan and Dhanya i.e. wealth and grains.
She is being bathed by four large elephants, who pour kalashas (jars) of amrita (nectar) over her.
