Kitsune – The Fox Spirit

by Paige Carpenter

In Japanese folklore, the kitsune is a fox spirit with magical abilities. As the kitsune grows older, they gain the ability to transform into a human, often a beautiful man or woman. The number of tails a kitsune has will reveal their age: a nine-tailed fox being the oldest and most powerful.

While kitsune are often portrayed as tricksters, they can also be wise guardians, lovers, or companions.
