If one can raise the kundalini power from mooladhara to the sahasrara chakra, the soul will reach its ultimate goal or enlightenment. It will attain a blissful state or samadhi state.
Ashtama siddhi can be attained after mastering the first chakra called mooladhara itself and once the kundalini started awakening. Ashtama siddhi is a primary achievement in a spiritual life. There are many things beyond that. I am not going to give you much reference about this. But, I can give you a solid proof. Shri Yantra is my illustration. Shri Yantra is considered as Yantra Raja in the world of Mantra, Thantra and Yantra practices of worshiping the God/Godesses. This yantra holds the above three within itself.
I thought of sharing a detailed information about Shri Yantra in my blog by this month.

This yantra operates in such a way that how chakra functions in our human body. It has a nine avarna called navavarna, each set of avarna denotes a chakra. By worshipping that particular avarna makes you master in that chakra.
Finally, If you look at the first avarana in the Shri Yantra, The residing devate are Sapta kannimars, Ashtama siddhi, Mahalakshmi. The first avarana in Shri yantra denotes mooladhara chakra. Worshipping the first avarana helps to achieve first avarana related stuff.
