Animal Totem Blend – Coyote

The Coyote is one of the most adaptable and smartest of all animals. Its territory has spread throughout the United States, in spite of hunting and other concentrated efforts to limit its number and territory. The coyote symbolizes cleverness, resilience, and strategic thinking. If you have a Coyote totem, you are independent, resourceful and can take care of yourself extremely well. Some might describe you as cunning and sly-- this is because you use your wit and intelligence to get what you want. The coyote totem is a good luck symbol for those who need to rely on their wits in order to handle a changing situation and other life complications. The coyote is here to remind you that even if you don’t feel it, you actually have the capacity to handle any situation you find yourself in. Instead of getting emotional or overwhelmed, the coyote spirit reminds you: Use your wits! This creature is also a powerful symbol to remind you to lighten up and stop being so serious. The coyote is fully aware of the problems in the world, but that doesn’t stop him from playing games and having a good time.
