It has six vermilion-colored petals inscribed with syllables: बं baṃ, भं bhaṃ, मं maṃ, यं yaṃ, रं raṃ and लं laṃ.

Inside this lotus is a white crescent moon which represents the water region presided over by the deity Varuna.

[citation needed] Some schools teach that the divinities of the Svādhishthāna Chakra are Brahmā and Sarasvatī.

The six petals represent the following modes of consciousness, also known as vrittis: affection, pitilessness, feeling of all-destructiveness, delusion, disdain, and suspicion.

One who meditates on Svadhishthana is believed to obtain the following siddhis: freedom from enemies, the status of a lord among yogis, eloquence and clarity ("words flowing like nectar in well-reasoned discourse"), loss of fear of water, awareness of astral entities and the ability to taste anything desired for oneself or others.

It is the subconscious mind’s seat, storing all of our life events and impressions from the beginning of our existence in the womb.

Lethargy, fear, doubt, wrath, jealousy, and greed are some of the basic traits that impede our growth.
