Inner Warrior

Who else here has an inner warrior that calls to them? Can you picture them? Mine has taken shape in the last several years, though I have always felt her there. I heard on some podcast somewhere, sometime, something about a wildness gene. An unevolved gene in some people that causes them to be calm in moments of chaos and causes time to appear to slow down for them - which sometimes results in a tendency for thrill seeking behavior or nomadic behavior. This is true for me - unplanned road trips with hippies to burning man, roof top parties at squat houses, hook suspensions and ritual body piercing...the list goes on. Maybe it's a gene, maybe it's a nurtured trauma response - the source of the behavior doesn't really matter. Last year I performed a ritual and she never appeared in my mind's eye so clearly. She knelt on one knee, a shield maiden with purple hair and angel wings. A warrior of light and the embodiment of unconditional love. My higher self? Maybe. What I know, however, is that she is linked with my sight, my call, and on some level, she is me.

Has anyone else experienced something like this? I know not everyone experiences things visually - is there another sense by which you experience something similar?
