For as long as people have lived in the desert southwest, they have told stories of Coyote, that peculiar personality that’s both a common wild canine and the devious trickster god who created the world. 

Also: A lot of people are seeing coyotes stand up and walk away like a man. This is Episode #179, ENCOUNTERS WITH COYOTE-MAN.

Looking for God in the world? Watch the coyote. Huehuecoyotl, that’s its Holy name. Old, old coyote. Lord of the arts, god of music and dance, our guide through adolescence and onward to adulthood. King of the Prank, patron of the promiscuous, lord of the Friday night party. Canis latrans is the new name, from the 1800s. Coyotl is the ancient American name.

Now is the time for EPISODE #144: HUEHUECOYOTL, THE COYOTE GOD. Thanks for supporting the show via our Desert Oracle Patreon page.
