Three and a half turns
Ṣaṭ-cakra-nirūpaṇa, the verse on the sleeping power. John Woodroffe, The Serpent Power
She is described as fine as the fibre of a lotus stem. She sleeps. Her mouth covers a door. Her body winds three and a half times, like the spiral of a shell, and her light is compared to lightning.
That sentence is the drawing on the door of this site. A coil at rest, three and a half turns. The house does not teach a rise, a held breath, a seal, or a lock.
