The divine feminine archetype of the warrior embodies strength, courage, and resilience alongside compassion, intuition, and nurturing qualities. Advocating for justice, protection, and liberation, she champions equality, healing, and transformation for all beings. Inspired by the heroism symbolized by the gladiolus, derived from the Latin word 'gladius', meaning sword, she signifies strength, victory, and pride.
