Coyote Indeed, you are 95% erudite, 83% saturnine, 83% sensual, and 25% martial.

Coyote was an important being to several Native American tribes. He was one of those tricksters that are found in several world mythologies, in fact very close in temperament and deed to Loki of the Norse pantheon. Eternally scavenging for food, he represents the most basic instincts, but in other narratives, he is also the father of the Indian people and a potent conductor of spiritual forces in the form of sacred dreams. In the �Myth of the Stars and the Moon� he is shown as a wise counsellor even. There are more stories about him than stars in the sky. For example, did you hear the one about the �Spying Moon�? It seems that someone had pinched the moon, and Coyote offered to stand in as replacement. Everyone agreed that he made a fine moon, but from his elevated position Coyote could see everything that was going on. Being of an irritating disposition, he couldn't resist blowing the whistle on friends and enemies alike. "Hey, look what Badger is doing behind his tepee!" Pretty soon everyone was sick of his snooping and voted him out of the sky. But nothing can keep Coyote down for long. Being an old show-off, he loves to impress the girls by juggling his eyeballs. One day he threw one so high it got stuck in the sky and became the star Arcturus. So even now he's keeping an eye on us all. The Fifteen Gods These are the 15 categories of this test.

Never quite saw myself as Coyote. But perhaps a combination of Amun, Anubis, and Cernunnos?

Can you juggle your eyeballs? I always thought you had a bit of Puck in your eye!

As in, Here's Puck in your eye? Or, She rolled her eyes at me; I rolled them right back?

As in Robin Goodfellow....a mischievous little imp! You've got that twinkle.

You know, I can see this. You do have a kind of Coyote thing going on.

Well maybe I do and maybe I don't, but the other guys seem to have a sexier image. As far as tricksters go, I remember a televised production of Das Rheingold in which Loki was acted as a fussy fellow dressed up as Immanuel Kant. And who wants to be regularly beaten up by the Roadrunner?

I dunno...you do have that mischievous Coyote look about you ;)

[arisbe.livejournal.com]

Oh, all right. But how about just a little bit sexy?

[elementalmuse.livejournal.com]

Absolutely on the sexy! ;) And any man who can talk philosophy -- ooo la la!
