Coyote Meaning, and Messages
For the most part, the Coyote symbolism is reminding you to laugh at yourself. In other words, things have been entirely too serious of late. Therefore, you simply need to let loose and get on with it. Coyote symbolism means that you stop dwelling on your worries and stresses and let them go. Furthermore, since you have asked for help, you have to get out of the way of yourself. In particular, you just let go and allow your spirit helpers to do what they need to do.
Specifically, Coyote meaning is signaling you to do something that gives you pleasure and joy and focus on the positive for a change.
When a Coywolf (also known as the Eastern Coyote and Woyote) makes an appearance in your life, it is a warning that you need to adapt to your current situation. Significant changes are currently required for you to restore balance in your life.
On the other hand, the Coydog is a message that you will need to let go of some of your loyalties to others. You have outgrown them, and their energies no longer relate to yours.
This canine is closely related to the Dog, Wolf, jackal, dingo, and dhole. This animal, wolf, and dogs can interbreed successfully. The German Shepherd and Husky can also closely resemble this species.
Coyote Totem, Spirit Animal
People with Coyote totem are very adaptive to new situations. They also love to play practical jokes and pranks on their peers. Folks with this spirit animal always live in the present moment, and they find joy in all of the things they do. People with this power animal have a very close-knit family and love to work with children. They know how to be themselves without having to put on airs and masks. These folks also realize that by allowing themselves to be vulnerable, they will gain the most growth in their lives.
Coyote Dream Interpretation
When you have a Coyote dream, it symbolizes deception and weakness. Perhaps you are tricking yourself into believing something is right when you know in your heart that it is not. Also, to dream that this canine attacks you, indicates that you are allowing your thoughts to focus on what you perceive as an unfavorable fault within yourself or on adverse outcomes. This spirit animal in a dream may also be preparing you for a death, a severe illness, or a dramatic change in your family. This change could also mean a substantial spiritual shift in your consciousness in the form of transformation.

that nikakwaho’ta’:’ah is a clown

if you got anything worth stealin
that nikakwaho’ta’:’ah will run away with it
but wouldn’t you love to be coyote
to play the trickster for a little bit
I didn’t have to look very far or even draw a card to know my Spirit Animal, my Spirit Animal for the year on my New Year’s Eve Spirit walk. Just as I was getting dressed to leave our lunatic dog, Benji, rushes for the door to the back yard barking and howling, and when I followed I could hear what had set him off. At least two Coyotes howling on the path behind our back yard. I went up to the fence and could just make out their shapes, a pair of them, standing amongst the trees. But by the time I got fully kitted up and on my way they were gone. On my way back from my walk I encountered a group of drunken New Years Eve’s revellers pouring out of a bar. I had no choice but to stop walking momentarily to deal with them and then get past them. As I glanced up the sign on the seedy bar they had just poured out of it said Coyote Jack’s. No kidding. Then when I got on the path near our yard I took special care to move quietly, the way I had been taught to as a boy. And there they were. A pair of twins standing together just off the path. I had encountered these twins last year. They’re pure coyote. Pure Nikakwaho’ta’:’ah. Not the Coywolfs or Coydogs you so often see around cities nowadays. Small and silent and curious. We stared each other for a long while, the cold wind gusting through the trees. And then the two just turned and walked off. So no question of my New Year Spirit Animal. The great Trickster, Coyote. She who knocks things of balance and who will steal the earth from right beneath your feet. She who plays. She who brings mischief and chaos and it is in chaos and mischief that we have the greatest opportunity to grow. It is in mischief and chaos that we learn to just play. This is a powerful sign to me. I have been struggling with severe depression lately. I always do for the holidays because that is when the worst things would happen to me when I was a child. But Coyote reminds me that I need to play more. Be more mischievous. Take myself and this life and my problems a little less seriously. My heart is warmed that Nikakwaho’ta’:’ah, that Coyote will be my guide this year. I might lose a few things to her Trickiness. But I also might lose this cloud, this darkness that I’ve been lingering in for far too long.
All I can say is Wow Jules. Your writing was moving and the poem – I’m speechless. just going to revel in it.
I love the writting too! Happy 2021 New years Spirit Drawing!
Before I woke up I had a dream in which there had been a spider in my blankets. I’ve been doing alot of cleansing and ridding of some dark spots within, but it was only a house spider. Even so I heard a voice above me exclaiming the same thing “it’s just a house spider”. But no I had enough, my choice so I took to my hand and swept it off the bed. Even small things can have the loudest voices especially if they wanna make a web in your ear 😀 they could make earwigs for a living!
