NINE-TAILED FOX SYMBOL
The nine-tailed fox is a legendary creature that appears in oral tales from various parts of East Asia, specifically China, Korea, and Japan. In Chinese culture, it was considered a lucky beast. Sent from Heaven, the nine-tailed fox was a sign of luck and peace and an auspicious symbol. The appearance of a nine-tailed fox symbolized peace and prosperity in the world and was a sign of marriage and love. Later, the nine-tailed fox was gradually demonized and turned into a beauty who sought to bewitch humans and their souls.
In Korean culture, the nine-tailed fox is predominantly an evil being. It often assumes the guise of a beautiful young woman to seduce men so it can eat their flesh, usually the liver or sometimes the heart.
Foxes are a common motif in Japanese folklore to this day. Some tales depict foxes as tricksters and evil, while others portray them as guardians or friends.
