The back is light blue and has an optional pink lotus and customizable party details. Lakshmi is the consort of the god Vishnui She is one of the most popular goddesses of Hindu mythology and is known as the goddess of wealth and purity. Depicted in Indian art as an elegantly dressed, prosperity-showering golden-coloured woman with an owl as her vehicle, she signifies the importance of economic activity in maintenance of life, her ability to move, work and prevail in confusing darkness. She typically stands or sits like a yogin on a lotus pedestal and holds lotus in her hand, a symbolism for fortune, self-knowledge and spiritual liberation. Her iconography shows her with four hands, which represent the four goals of human life considered important to the Hindu way of life: dharma, kāma, artha, and moksha.
