Indeed. For me the primary use of such wild, powerful gentleness is in service of transformation.
Jungians call it Individuation: the journey from the unconscious persona(lity) to the Self, our unique genius.
I find that an image can guide such transformation, even when all else is taken from us.
Hillman writes about this force in his Soul's Code as does Marion Woodman in her book the Pregnant Virgin.
