Nine-Tailed Fox

I feel like the tale of the nine-tailed fox has changed so much over the years . It actually did a whole 360 when it comes to it's personality and how it was seen .

During the Qin Dynasty [ 221 to 206 B.C. ] , the nine-tailed fox was seen as an auspicious symbol . With pretty white , silky fur , it was said to have brought prosperity , love , and marriage to those who met it . One would also meet a nine-tailed fox if they were "benevolent and wise" .

However , since the Song Dynasty [ 960–1279 ] , the same nine-tailed fox was slowly being demonized . From bringing prosperity , to bringing death . It was turned into a symbol which sought to bewitch humans and their souls .

Literally a full 360 . Literally .

The only question I have now is : HOW ?

Why did this dude's story do a full 360 .

Who on earth was that salty to make this dude's story turn a full 360.

Like what were they thinking .

Why did my man the nine-tailed fox get demonized ?

Legit I thought ma dude was cool with all that romance and wealth stuff going .

But no the dude's a demon now .

Aight .

Cool .

Funny part is how my dad told me the nine-tails was a romantic .

But when I asked my mom the first thing she said was ..... " demon foxy ? "

So like , which is the fox actually like ?

I wanna know .

But neither of my parents can give me straight answers so-

Imma just go on a limb and say my dude's 50/50
