The blue coloured, two-armed deity is in the act of dancing and is terrible in appearance with canine teeth, a garland of heads and three eyes rolling in anger. She is bedecked with her auspicious girdle. She holds akartri in her right hand and a skull cup on her left palm placed against the chest. The khatvangaas usual hangs from her left shoulder. The background colour adds an unusual appeal.
