Kitsune
Kitsune Images.
Kitsune, a term derived from Japanese, translates directly to “fox.” In Japanese mythology, kitsune are not merely ordinary foxes; they are supernatural beings endowed with magical abilities, particularly shape-shifting. These entities are often depicted as intelligent and cunning, embodying qualities associated with both benevolence and mischief.
Kitsune play a significant role in Japanese folklore and culture. They are often seen as protectors and messengers of the gods, particularly Inari, the goddess of rice and fertility. Statues of kitsune frequently adorn Shinto shrines.
Their portrayal has evolved over time; while traditionally viewed as wise guardians, they have also been depicted as tricksters in various tales, reflecting their dual nature.
