Inuit mythology, spirits play a crucial role in mediating the relationship between humans and the natural world. These spirits, often referred to as animistic beings, inhabit various elements of nature, such as animals, rocks, and waters. They serve as protectors and guides, influencing the balance of life, hunting, and the environment. Spirits are also involved in community welfare, emphasizing respect for nature. Through rituals and storytelling, Inuit culture integrates these spiritual beliefs, embodying the interconnectedness of humanity and the surrounding world.
