She stands in a dynamic dancing posture, crowned with a five-skull crown that represents the transformation of the five poisons into wisdom. In her right hand, she wields a kartika (ritual flaying knife), symbolizing the severing of ignorance and ego, while in her left hand, she raises a skull cup from which she drinks, representing the transformation of desire into enlightened awareness.

Vajrayoginī is one of the most revered female deities in Vajrayana Buddhism, regarded as the supreme embodiment of wisdom and enlightened energy. She is considered a dakini—a spiritual guide and protector—who helps practitioners cut through ignorance, attachment, and illusion to realize the true nature of reality.
She is typically depicted in a red, semi-wrathful form, symbolizing passion transformed into wisdom, and is associated with practices of transformation, liberation, and the union of wisdom and compassion. Vajrayoginī is seen as the essence of all female Buddhas and is often described as the “Queen of Dakinis.”
