Vajrayogini is shown in her famous dance pose with a kapala (skull cup) in her left hand, signifying change and acceptance of impermanence, and a kartika (ritual curved knife) in her right, symbolizing her ability to cut through ignorance and delusion. Her savage countenance, blazing hair, and crushed figures beneath her feet symbolize her function in conquering negativity and converting inner hindrances into knowledge.

Vajrayogini is a central tantric deity in Vajrayana Buddhism, especially revered in Tibetan Buddhism. She represents the union of wisdom and great bliss, embodying the divine feminine principle and the transformation of ordinary experiences into spiritual ones. As a dakini, Vajrayogini is often depicted as a fierce and passionate female figure, dancing in a dynamic posture and displaying her control over the world of appearances. Vajrayogini's practice is considered highly advanced and requires initiation by a qualified teacher, with the goal of ultimately achieving spiritual awakening and the realization of the true nature of reality.
