Wolves are extremely respected and much feared at the same time worldwide. They are very smart and social animals, organized, and have a clear hierarchy in the wolf pack. The wolf symbol represents peace, social power, and acceptance. This is why wolf rigs are very popular and chosen to enhance one's style. Strong men and women often than not, a wolf ring is the best way to do so.

What does the wolf ring symbolize?

Wolves are pack animals, very social and family-oriented, but at the same time they can manage alone while trusting their instincts. What's interesting about wolves is that if they lose their partner, they never choose another ones. That makes them fully loyal but free as well.

The symbol of the wolf works as a sign to trust your inner voice and intuition, and it points you to the right direction. For example, if you are in an unstable situation, you can choose to wear a wolf ring to guide you at the right path. Or you can choose to wear a wolf ring to represent the importance of the family bond in your life. It could also work as reminder to live more freely and be more brave.

These fantasy rings are associated with Vikings, Norse mythology, even fables and tales such as Red Riding Hood. Wolf rings are not just a depiction of an aggressive and powerful animal, but they bring power, strength, justice, and fearlessness. In addition, they represent loyalty, family bonds, hierarchy, as well as mysterious power. Whether you pick a Fenrir wolf, or a Alpha wolf for your ring’s design, keep in mind that this animal holds divine powers and is considered sacred to some.

Types of wolves on rings

Wolves ca represent both positive and negative sides. The negative side reflect aggressiveness and darkness, while the positive side expresses loyalty, freedom, love for the family, and intelligence. At the same time, the different types of wolf symbols can have other symbolic meanings, this is why you should know various kinds before purchasing a wolf ring. The most popular are the folowing:

  • Fenrir wolf: Fenrir is the most famous mythological wolf, and the most important element of Norse mythology. Wearing a Fenrir wolf ring you reflect justice, vengeance, power, strength, destiny and fearlessness. It is stylized in various ways and tends to be more masculine, expressing ferocity and destinity.
  • Alpha wolf: Native American tribes believe that wolves are sacred animals. Actually, they support that wolves are the incarnation of God. The hierarchical structure of a tribe has the same logic as a wolf tribe - the pack is led by the oldest wolf, the Alpha Wolf. Thus, an Alpha Wolf ring symbolizes loyalty, hierarchy, family bonds, but mysterious power as well that must be respected at all times.
  • Big bad wolf: Probably the most popular wolf in Western culture. It is the wolf in the Little Red Riding Hood tale, known for its trickery. The wolf wanted to eat the girl, but she was saved by a heroic huntsman. Other fables discuss that the wolf managed to feast on the girl, while others suggest that the hunter was the girl. The head of the wolf was worn as a trophy, with red stones in its eyes to symbolize its fierce and aggressive nature ad appearance. A Big Bad Wolf ring demonstrates power, trickery, aggressiveness, and fierceness when worn.
