Meanings
fox
Impressions
It gives clever, smart and sometimes shrewd impressions.
Is it good or bad??
Both! In Japan, a fox is sometimes a divine messenger and sometimes an evil spirit that deceives people.
For example, do you know Kurama in Naruto, the nine-tailed beast? Its origin is an ancient Japanese demon called “Kyubi no Kitsune”.
KYU = nine
BI = tail
NO = of
KITSUNE = fox
Japanese people in old times thought that the fox had the ability to transform into a human and tried to trick people.
That’s why we have an image that fox is a crafty animal.
On the contrary, a fox is treated as a divine messenger and enshrined all over Japan. You can see a fox statue like this at Japanese shrines. It’s said there are over 30,000 fox statues in Japan.
Either way, it’s believed that a fox is an animal with mysterious power!
Background
The left part of the character pictures “animal” and the right part represents the sound “KO”, another way of reading the KITSUNE symbol.
