The hedgehog is a nocturnal animal that navigates in the dark. Soft-bodied and spined.

Across cultures, hedgehogs have been carried as protection—against venom, against spirits, against what cannot be reasoned with.

The Hedgehog Medallion continues the medallion series from the previous year: the 2025 Cockroach. Not as an improvement, but as a succession.

Raised spikes are meant to be touched. Repeated contact—grounding.

The hedgehog survives by self-protection.

This is the medallion for 2026. Not symbolic in the abstract—specific to the moment
