Transformation is the process of fundamental change in form, nature, or identity—whether physical, psychological, spiritual, or symbolic. It marks the crossing of a threshold from one state of being into another.

Psyche frames transformation not as clean ascension but as a liminal, sometimes painful passage involving trauma, reclamation of power, and the shedding of false identities—particularly relevant to outsider narratives and those claiming agency after violation or constraint.
