Foxes have always had a bit of mystery about them. In loads of old stories, they show up where things feel a little… in between. So when one appears in a graveyard, some say it means the veil between worlds is thin. 🦊🌫️

🌀 Celtic
In Celtic tales, foxes were seen as guides. They were clever enough to slip between this world and the next. A little warning, a little wisdom.

🦊 Japanese (Kitsune)
In Japan, fox spirits (kitsune) are known for shapeshifting and showing up at graves or shrines. Sometimes they protect. Sometimes they play tricks.

🪓 Norse
They’re not as famous in Norse myth, but foxes still show up as quiet signs. Wild, clever, and maybe a little otherworldly.
