NINE-TAILED FOX SYMBOL
The nine-tailed fox is a legendary creature that appears in oral tales from various parts of East Asia, specifically from China, Korea and Japan. In the chinese culture she was considered as 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 the sign of marriage and love. Later the nine-tailed fox has been gradually demonized and was turned into a beauty who sought to bewitch humans and their souls.
In Korean culture, the nine-tailed fox is a predominantly evil being. A fox that often assumes the guise of a beautiful young woman to seduce men to be able to 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 tricking and evil, while others portray them as guardians or friends.
