Pathfinder's Animal Totem Oracle No 43, Fox

Pathfinder's Animal Oracle No 43, the Fox
The card shows the head and chest of a Red Fox. He - -feels like a he - has rather sleepy eyes and also a quite wide head for a Fox -?? Does not look very Fox-like to me...... A veryery proud and dignified animal
Fox for me is the Power of protection for the East - morning and sunrise...The red fur attests to that.
For our People in Siberia, the Uryanchai, Dilgi, the fox is a Guadian of the East and announces all malevolent spirits, that lurk up ahead, yet unseen in our future.
No kamlani (shamanic circle) is set up without a representation of Dilgi.

Native Americans as well see Fox as an animal of the East and often wear Fox fur in their regalia.
The Ojibwa name for Fox is Wagish and he is smart, sly and his Power is camouflage and observing in silence.
He also always has a smile on his face....

To me Fox is cunning and sly, but hides it well under his beauty! His rich and clean coat, his rich colours against the pure white, a lovely face and fluffy tail, plus often we see a Foxes den not far from our own homes and lots of babies being tenderly cared for. But try and snuggle this creature and you will get quite a snapping! Still, there seems to be a lot of wisdom in those eyes!

Yes, his head does look a bit smooshed out! Usually they are more pointed and exquisite in appearance! I like the idea about him being of the East and the Sun. Also like a copper coin!
