Sakura Kitsune

*Sakura Kitsune ~ Cherry Blossom Fox is a Flower Fox Spirit. Cherry blossoms (Sakura) are a symbol of love and good fortune. The flowering cherry trees come into full bloom around the end of March and the beginning of April. April is Sakura month. Sakura, or cherry blossoms, are pink .. for one thing it is one of my favourite colors! Sakura Festivals, or Cherry Blossom Festivals, celebrate the greatest springtime, a time of new beginnings and new arisings. Fox Spirits (Japan: Kitsune) are believed to gain an extra tail for every 100 years they live, the wisest and most powerful having nine tails. Sakura Kitsune ("flower fox") is an interesting find, as not only is she still growing (having only five tails), but her tails have markings of sakura (cherry blossom).

*Alder Fox ~ Celtic Tree Oracle (Ongham). Alder month (March 18 - April 14). Alder Moon. Alder (Alnus glutinosa) is closely associated to the sabbat Ostara. Druids associated this tree with the Fox, so the Fox is the druidic Guardian Animal of those people born with the Alder Spirit, for diplomacy - Alders must learn the art of diplomacy or they waste energy in fruitless disputes.

*Fox under the Cherry Tree at the April Pink Moon. Foxes, dogs and raccoon dogs are the only omnivore canids.
