The Wolf
The Wolf has been regarded by Native Americans as teachers or path finders. Wolves are fiercely loyal to their mates, and have a strong sense of family yet maintaining individualism. In the stars, Wolf is represented by the Dog, Sirius, envisioned by many aboriginal tribes to be “The House of the Ancients.” It has been thought that this connection that Wolf has come to be associated with ancient teachings.
Wolves have long been misunderstood. Despite many beliefs that they are cold blooded predators, They are friendly, social and intelligent amongst each other. They are however truly free spirits even though their packs are highly organized. They go way out of their way just to avoid a fight.
Traditionally, a person with Wolf Medicine has a strong sense of self, and communicates well through subtle changes in voice inflections and body movements. They often find new solutions to problems while providing stability and support that one normally associates with a strong family structure.
