Animal Symbolism - Coyote

For some of us, animals are a huge part of our lives. Pets, watching shows about them, learning about them. A good friend of mine's favorite animal is the coyote.

I think they are beautiful and intriguing, too! They have interesting symbolism. I keep a coyote claw in my reading space for these reasons. They are wonderful at changing your fortune, the way your life is going, into positive and playful directions. Coyotes teach us to be adaptable, enhance our natural sense of humor, and show us to be creatively manipulative to get through life.

They sound like screaming babies when a pack runs through, and it can be eerie and terrifying if you don't know what the sound is. If you do, you'll love it. 

Just be sure to keep your small pets inside if you have coyotes around. They are predators just as much as scavengers. Clever and social, coyotes are not the vermin of the wilds, but rather lurkers in the shadows, planning, fearful in solitude, and powerful in their packs. They can teach us a lot about depending on our loved ones.
