FOX MEDICINE
Fox in Native American medicine stands for intellect,
cleverness in all it's forms.
Fox is very independent, stands alone, and gets done
what needs to be done.
Fox is a blend of dog and cat. Intelligent like a cat
but with surprising strength for it's size.
Fox does not get lonely. It is very adventurous.
It can amuse itself. It is a survivor. It can live in
any condition: snow or heat.

These ideas were related to me by my muse, who
is part Iroquois and part Cherokee Indian.
