Kitsune mask and geisha. "When a fox is fifty years old, it can transform itself into a woman; when a hundred years old, it becomes a beautiful female, or a spirit medium. Such beings are able to know things at more than a thousand miles' distance; they can poison men by sorcery, or possess and bewilder them, so that they lose their memory and knowledge; and when a fox is thousand years old, it ascends to heaven and becomes a celestial fox."

In Japan, as earlier in China, the mythical Phoenix was adopted as a symbol of the imperial household, particularily the empress. This mythical bird represents fire, the sun, justice, obedience, fidelity, and the southern star constellations. According to legend (mostly from China), the Hō-ō appears very rarely, and only to mark the beginning of a new era -- the birth of a virtuous ruler, for example. In other traditions, the Hō-ō appears only in peaceful and prosperous times (nesting, it is said, in paulownia trees), and hides itself when there is trouble. As the herald of a new age, the Hō-ō descends from heaven to earth to do good deeds, and then it returns to its celestial abode to await a new era.

The Japanese spider represents seduction, vice and manipulation when it has a woman's face. The spider's web imprisons the world.

The kyuubi no kitsune ('the nine-tailed fox') is a powerful youkai (Japanese word for spiritual and otherwise supernatural creatures in folklore) commonly seen in Japan, China, and Korea. A normal fox is said to be able to turn into one, by gaining a tail each century of living and spiritual training. Records of the nine-tailed fox can be seen first in China. It is a benevolent, if not outright divine creature, and anyone who can encounter one and live to tell the tale is destined to become a lord or even the emperor. In Korea these creatures wish to become human, often by stealing the life force of human males by transforming into a woman and seducing them.

The toad, in Japan, is an animal that represents wealth and opulence. Its big belly shows its wealth. Surrounded by Japanese coins, the toad dances its happiness.

The catfish represents in Japan the desire to live and the thirst for freedom. On him, a Japanese gourd (Hyoutan) blocks his movements in order to prevent him from being free.

The tiger represents strength and power, while the bamboo is synonymous with the limits of things. The tiger symbolizes here the freedom confronted with a world too structured, against which it fights.
