Which coyote did you meet?

  • A coyote talks

    An unexpected voice can give you a new angle on a concern you have been taking very seriously. Remember the words or the tone and see whether either makes the situation easier to look at.

  • A coyote chases you or you run with coyotes

    Pursuit can evoke caution, while running alongside them can raise questions about the company you keep. Consider whether being part of the group felt freeing or made you more watchful.

  • A coyote pup

    A younger animal can suggest learning to adapt without being expected to have every answer. Think about what you are still discovering as you try a different way forward.
