Coyote Spirit Animal
Coyote Symbolism
The coyote often symbolizes the trickster or joker. However, its symbolism is associated with a deep magic of life and creation. It can be considered as having the following meanings:
- Jokester
- Adaptability
- Reveal the truth behind illusion and chaos
- Playfulness
- Paradoxical nature, personality difficult to categorize
- Beware of the dark side of things and play on your resources
The wisdom delivered by the coyote spirit animal is rarely direct. The way of the coyote is to teach through ways that do not appear straightforward. It may also use subterfuge or trickery to reach its goal or deliver its message.
Don’t be fooled by the coyote’s way: In any circumstances you encounter, no matter how pleasant or clear they appear to be, there’s a hidden wisdom for you to reap. Be aware of the round about ways of the coyote totem and its teachings.

Call on the spirit of the coyote to support you in refreshing your perspective and lighten the weight of circumstances. Even if the coyote is often presented in many stories as a trickster and a spirit animal bringing complication to whoever crosses his path, it is a good reminder to keep things simple and open up to possibilities.
Coyote totem and teachings with a sense of humor
It’s sometimes hard to grasp the wisdom of the coyote without experiencing some unsettling or disruptive feelings. Here, serious pieces of wisdom and playfulness often go hand in hand and appearances may be deceiving. The wisdom of the coyote may appear through a joke or what shows as trickery.
There’s often wisdom in making fun of serious matters and letting go of certainties. Call on the coyote to reinvigorate an appreciation of life’s wisdom through diversity and richness. This animal totem provides his teaching with a good sense of humor.

Hi! I saw a coyote at 5:30 this morning walking my dogs. It is dark out and i saw it under the streetlight down the street without knowing what it was. Then it disappeared in the dark was between the street lights and reappeared trotting into the streetlight by my house coming towards me and my dogs. I was close to my house and ran back inside. Is this an omen perhaps? Today my husband and i are signing divorce papers after an unhappy marriage, and he is also moving out. I was scared seeing the coyote at first but now feel lucky to have witnessed it’s beauty.

I saw a coyote this morning walk right up to my window. What is this mean.?
When my family gathered around my mothers burial spot, my grandson was sitting nearby on a bench. Suddenly a young coyote ran across the cemetery just a few yard from us. He shouted LOOK…the young coyote ran into some shrubs.Then maybe twenty seconds later he ran by us again but this time he was joined by another young coyote. As they dashed off we were so excited and awed by what we had seen.My sisters and I believe it was the spirits of our parents,joined at last living together in heaven. This is a true story…I live in Dallas. The cemetery is surrounded by busy highway and a giant mall.This memory will always be with me.
What does it mean when you get 3 animal messages within a four hour time frame? Pigeons, deer, bats. Thanks if anyone knows. I went to feed the coyotes in the woods( I know I shouldn’t, but I do t do it often)… And I saw all these animals.
My Farher passed away a month ago. He was a strong man who put family first, and I will miss him, and I do. I had the most Bizzare visit at the cemetery. I went to visit his grave, and to hang a bluebird box we had made together on the tree that shades his grave. I was sitting on his grave and eating the cup of yogurt I had packed for my lunch,when out of nowhere,a coyote walked up. We made eye contact for a few seconds before it turned and continued walking over the cemetery. I was quickly trying to get my cell phone out of my pocket, as to take a picture, but as soon as I took it from my pocket, the coyote had vanished. As I turned around to head back to my Fathers grave after going a few feet to see if I could find the coyote, two Canadian geese waddled over into my field of vision. I wonder if it was my Fathers spirit speaking to me through the coyote and geese? I will always hold the sighting and the gaze of the coyote close to my heart. I hope my Father is happy. I hope I hear from him throughout my life.
i have never thought about coyotes before… dont think i ever will but this is definitely me!
Coyote came to me in a vision while crossing the Chukchi Sea in Alaska many years ago. It is good.

I have lived in the same home for 13 years… One of the things I yearn for is the outdoors and when I sleep at night mainly in the warm season I am often awakened by Coyote howls back and forth they call to one another. I was once told an Indian Ledgend (not sure tribe affiliation) that this animal carries the soul of native warriors. I love them I yearn to hear them it brings me comfort, always has! My dilemma is we have a new neighbor that is hell bent on shooting all of them in the area. Supposedly another neighbors huge dog was attacked. I do not believe this… we have many small game they have a plentiful diet here. Thier dog had small scratches by its ribs. They did not see any attack but said they have seen them in thier yard before…This hunt will not happen… I will not allow it! Can you give me any information on Coyotes this is my spirit animal and I want to tell the “hunt leader” why I feel strongly about protecting them. We moved into thier home is my biggest argument but they are also sacred in my heart. I just want some native american beliefs to support my argument and wage my stance. Thank you! I know there are way bigger issues to focus on right now with protecting our sacred waters!! This is just my own personal conflict I need to resolve so I can focus on the most important thing-Mni Wiconi
May the spirit be with you my friend.
