The fox has long been considered as a witty, quick and intelligent. In some European traditional tales, he’s the character who outsmarts humans and other animals alike and gets away even in the trickiest situations.

You are immediately drawn to this quick and clever animal. You follow the fox as it leads you deeper into the forest path. A sense of excitement and adventure wells up inside of you.
As you continue on the path, the fox stops and turns to you, its bright eyes shining with clever wisdom and understanding.

i was in Mexico on holiday when i found out my spirit animal was a fox. it was near the end of my holiday, and i was out on a walk at night around the hotel, and i felt like i was being watched or followed. so i got scared, thinking it was a man and i was going to get kidnapped or something. so i sped up, and i could hear feet behind me. i was heading towards a pool, hoping people would be there. there wasn’t. i panicked, and i hide behind a corner. i heard footsteps coming closer, but then i knew that they weren’t the footsteps of a man. i looked up, in tears. (you would be crying too) and i saw this huge fox. i mean huge. like dog size. i knew it was a fox, because it was just light enough to see it’s markings. it padded up to me, and i was wary. i was astonished of how close it came to me. it sat directly in front of me, staring into my eyes. it was beautiful. it had the most beautiful golden eyes, and they seemed to glow in the light. it was an experience. we sat for a while, and it eventually lay down in front of me, and i talked to it. i didn’t touch it. i didn’t want it to be a dream. i pinched myself, so make sure, and it stood up suddenly and stretched its neck forward, so close to my face. after half an hour, it stood up, and walked away into the trees. at the edge of the trees it stopped and looked back at me. it blinked, and trotted into the forest. i asked around if there was any friendly foxes around, and all staff members said no and said there wasn’t even foxes on site. i took several different spirit animal quiz’s and tests the day after, and most of the tests came with the result of ”fox”. i wont forget that. i named him/her Akari.
Hi,
I had a dream where bunch of foxes were screaming in rice field far away from my home.
I came to window to check why were they screaming. Please advise the meaning.
Greetings. I have just had a dream whereby a red female fox sat with me and her cubs and muzzled intoy face. It was so real and beautiful it made me wake up instantly . I have no children and do not want any so it’s not that. I do have a meeting with a friend whom I have been having discord with soon , and wondered if it was something to do with that ?
Hello ^^ foxes are mischievous but hardly evil, though they may find rest and sanctuary in the solace of shadows that doesn’t mean they cannot stand in the light and shine with brilliance. Joy, curiosity and whimsy lead to deep truth, understanding and connection to your purity. But love, forgiveness and abandonment of hate is the key. Just a tip from one fox to another be Keen on observing the signs, foxes have a knack for landing on their feet in sticky situations, but being intune to your intuitive instincts is so important, you can sharpen your perception by sensory deprivation “sight beyond sight, hearing beyond hearing”. But faith in your connection to all foxes is just as Important, remember we are all one.
That was so awesome what you wrote. Thank you for sharing ????
All liars need to remember that God’s Omnipotent, and that His Laws prevail. CHRIST has overcome this whole entire earth, and GOD will always overcome evil with His Truth. And Satan will not win against GOD, ever.
But I am not Christian, I am Pagan. I am not a liar just because I connect to the fox spiritually. Your preachings are empty to me, and your words are irrelevant to the true meaning of “fox”
My dream was do a Fox – it looked at me and fell over dead – not playing dead but dead……
“people who try tricking you have no chance”
Tricksters can never deceive GOD.
Chavo, are you Sure you understood exactly what Ann was saying? I know I don’t.

I just moved into a apartment over the weekend; I’ve been having to walk to meet my ride to work every morning. Well this morning I was on my usual walk and I came across a Fox, we stared at each other for awhile and I even tried to video record it but it dashed off before I could record. Does this encounter mean anything?
From my experience, my spirit guides communicate to me through the animals that I see. Seeing an animal is always significant, especially when I look up the animal’s spirit meaning. It’s also rare to see a fox. Hope that helped.
Last night I dreamed my spirit animal (a fox) attacked me and I had to kill it to survive. It was really awful. If someone knows what this means it would be awesome to know. Is my spirit animal trying to scare me into learning a lesson? Please help!
