Questions in regard to the Kitsune Society

Any questions any of you would like to ask about our revolutionary/spiritual group? ("Revospi?")

OK man I have something to tell you;

You were talking about the fox totem/spirit, Inarai (?) or whatever, being associated with abundance, fortune, prosperity etc (correct me if I am wrong here), and how the elites have stolen this power from us (FOX TV Network??)

Anyways, I just completed the last step in a book I wrote that is being published... and am kind of psyched about it as a first step in a possible new path. (I'm just waiting for a proof in them mail to examine and approve). Hoping it opens new doors and gets my creative/activist energies some new momentum etc...

So last night I was drinkin some wine by the fire by myself and I did a little prayer to the Fox spirit you spoke of. My dog killed a squirrel yesterday and it suddenly came to mind that I could think of it as a sacrifice (?). I drank the wine and said a prayer and imagined a world of good luck/contacts/prosperity flooding in in harmony with Inari etc. Then went to sleep.

Today, my wife calls me and tells me she just had an unusual encounter with a real fox.

...Wow.

The Kitsune are well aware of all new members of the Kitsune Society, keeping records of their believers. We have more than fifty Kindra (members) so far and we've only had ONE person (besides myself - I saw quite a few foxes after creating the idea for the group) to have a similar experience as yours. He's profoundly intelligent and literate, having not only written our constitution, but to also provide the logistical and political support to get us moving in the right direction.

Considering he encountered a fox that just stood in his backyard (Foxes are VERY rare where he lives) after he was at an Occupy protest telling people about the group on the same day, my similar experience after hatching the idea for the group (a LONG time ago) AND your outstanding wisdom and artistic talent, this can only mean one thing:

The Kitsune have chosen you.

I thought it would be best if we had a thread that was devoted to questions surrounding the group.

I've thought about having the site become a part of the group if most of the people here were to join the Kitsune Society, but something tells me that would be a bad idea. Makes sense, since it would alienate forumites who have no interest in the group.

So tell me, what exactly was your wife's vulpine encounter like?

I like 'societies' etc that are not constrained. If we are truly to trust in the currents of destiny and the spirit-realm, then imo we must exercise a degree of faith in it, and allow it to flow where it may, and adapt as it grows. Rules/paradigms etc only pull us back to 3D thinking and fear/mistrust/disagreement. Basic premises that are vague enough to apply to most any situation are good. Ideas that connect us like bridges to the frequencies of whatever has caused the inspiration... but then no need for the bridge.

Also, I wonder sometimes about giving too much trust to 'spirits' or deities. If I may be so bold I believe I have encountered a few such entities in my life, and can tell you not all can be trusted! And the ones that are good are on their own paths. These paths may intertwine with ours, but may only carry us for short bursts of time; too much loyalty/obedience can commit yourself to things that can be too big for us, and deny us our own paths (which are just as important).

If the Kitsune has chosen you, it means you have your own spark or whatever that comes directly from source and needs to be attended. This imo should always be an individual's true focus and refuge, and no pledge to the spirit world should threaten that. If it dictates one day that you must part with the group then there should be no guilt or blame for this, either from self or other



As for my wife's experience, she said while coming home from work, along a fairly urban street she drives every day, a fox crossed the road right in front of her.

She had to slow down the car, and the fox was just walking casually, not scurrying like most animals dodging traffic. She said it looked at her and she felt a wave of good feelings and luck.

She told me this before I said anything about Kitsune.

Also last night we started watching this cool movie called 'Wild', and about 40 minutes in there is a weird scene where the protagonist is out camping in the mountains and a huge majestic fox comes to look at her for a while. Then it leaves. She asks it to come back but its gone

Sounds like you two have both been chosen!

But yeah, if we depended too much on the gods, we'd become weak and feeble - just another liability for beings of a greater power. They want proud, strong minds; warriors willing to make a stand in this world of madness, not zealots mewling and convulsing for salvation from social changes that their bronze-age minds and morals cannot comprehend!

And there are indeed some gods that are simply apathetic towards Humans, benefitting us only if we benefit them. We should all desire to be companions to the gods rather than slaves or sacrifices, just as Nietzsche said.

Though I may have taken that quote way too literally...^^;
