The connection between **monkeys** and **veil‑crossing** isn’t something that comes from one single myth or culture — it’s a symbolic pattern that shows up across many traditions. When people talk about monkeys as “veil‑crossers,” they’re usually referring to the idea that monkeys naturally move between **states**, **worlds**, or **levels of consciousness** in a way humans cannot.
Here’s how that idea forms and why it’s so persistent.
**1. Monkeys move between realms physically**
Monkeys live in a space humans don’t:
– **the canopy** (sky‑adjacent)
– **the ground** (earth)
– **the in‑between branches** (liminal space)
This makes them natural symbols of **liminality** — creatures who exist between worlds.
Cultures often interpret animals that move between layers of the world as **messengers**, **mediators**, or **tricksters**.
**2. Their intelligence gives them a “threshold” quality**
Monkeys are:
– clever
– curious
– unpredictable
– socially complex
This puts them right on the **threshold between human and animal**, which many mythologies treat as a sacred or magical boundary.
Anything that sits “between categories” is often seen as able to cross the veil.
**3. Trickster figures are almost always veil‑crossers**
In global mythology, tricksters are the ones who:
– break rules
– move between worlds
– talk to gods and humans
– shift shape or identity
Monkeys frequently fill this role (though not always spider monkeys specifically).
Examples include:
– **Sun Wukong** (Journey to the West)
– **Hanuman** (Ramayana)
– Various Southeast Asian monkey spirits
Tricksters are *defined* by their ability to cross boundaries — including the boundary between the physical world and the spiritual one.
**4. Monkeys embody play, chaos, and transformation**
Cultures often associate veil‑crossing with:
– shapeshifting
– mischief
– breaking expectations
– sudden insight
– spiritual disruption
Monkeys naturally behave in ways that match these qualities.
So even without explicit myths, they *feel* like creatures that slip between realities.
**5. In Mesoamerican symbolism, monkeys are tied to creativity and the sacred**
While spider monkeys aren’t linked to fire or the sun, they *are* connected to:
– **art**
– **ritual**
– **spiritual performance**
– **communication with the divine**
Artists, dancers, and ritual performers were often seen as people who “cross the veil” through trance, rhythm, or ecstatic movement.
Monkeys, with their fluid motion and expressive behavior, became symbols of that same spiritual crossing.
**So the connection is:**
Monkeys = **liminal beings**
Liminal beings = **veil‑crossers**
They move between:
– earth and sky
– human and animal
– order and chaos
– physical and spiritual
That’s why they’re such natural symbols for **crossing the veil**, even if no single culture explicitly says “monkeys cross between worlds.”

Proposition 36 (Passed Nov 2024): This was a game-changer for Northern California. It allowed prosecutors to charge repeat shoplifting offenders with felonies
if they have two or more prior convictions, effectively ending the “under $950” loophole that critics often cited on social media.
Sacramento: While closures were less frequent than in the Bay Area, several drugstores (CVS/Walgreens) shuttered locations in the downtown grid, citing “changing consumer patterns” and high loss rates.
San Francisco: The “Union Square Exodus” saw brands like Old Navy, Whole Foods (8th and Market), and Nordstrom close flagship locations, citing both retail theft and reduced foot traffic from remote work.
Oakland: The most famous closure was the In-N-Out Burger on Oakport St (2024)—the first in the company’s history—due to persistent car break-ins and safety concerns for customers.
In Northern California, closures were concentrated in areas where the “cost of crime” (security + repairs) exceeded profit margins.
Oakland: Violent crime and robberies dropped by roughly 25%.
• San Francisco: Property crime fell by 21%.
• Sacramento: Experienced a steady 19% decrease in property crime by the start of 2025 compared to previous highs.
The Peak (2023–2024): In 2024, shoplifting in California was reported at 47.5% higher than pre-pandemic levels (2019). Major retailers reported a 19% jump in incidents during this window.
It is important to distinguish between “petty shoplifting” (someone grabbing a candy bar) and “Organized Retail Theft” (coordinated “smash-and-grabs” meant for resale).
The “Vibe” is returning: For the first time in three years, downtown vacancy rates have actually started to decrease (down to about 31.9% from a peak of 33% earlier this year), signaling that new businesses are finally starting to move back in to take advantage of lower rent
New Efforts: The city recently launched a Retail Theft Task Force and is currently considering tax relief for small businesses to stop the exodus.
Downtown Office/Retail: In early 2026, the vacancy rate in the downtown core reached roughly 31%. This means nearly one out of every three spaces is empty.
The Tax Burden: This is often the “final straw.” Portland currently has some of the highest effective business tax rates in the U.S. (combining city, county,
and state taxes). For many small shops, the combination of paying for private security, repairing broken glass, and high taxes makes it impossible to turn a profit.
Vandalism: In 2023, 67% of downtown businesses had to repair broken windows or storefronts. By 2024, that number dropped to 47%
Theft Statistics: According to a 2024 Downtown Portland Business Survey, about 30% of businesses reported dealing with theft or shoplifting. While that sounds high, it’s actually a massive improvement from 2023, where 47% reported the same issues.
Small Businesses: The “Silent” Exodus
For smaller shops, the issue isn’t just one big robbery; it’s the cost of doing business.
Cracker Barrel & Target: Both closed locations in the metro area (Target closed three stores in late 2023) citing theft and organized retail crime as the primary drivers
Walmart: Closed its last two stores within Portland city limits in 2023.
REI: Closed its Pearl District flagship in early 2024. While they mentioned retail theft, they also noted that the lease was up and the space no longer fit their needs.
Nike: Closed its long-running community store in Northeast Portland (MLK Blvd) in 2023, explicitly citing “theft and safety concerns.”

**The monkey most strongly connected to *fire* or the *sun* in world mythology is *Sun Wukong*, the Monkey King of Chinese tradition.** He is directly linked to fiery celestial energy, golden light, and supernatural flames. [Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sun_Wukong) [Mythopedia](https://mythopedia.com/topics/sun-wukong/)
Sun‑Linked and Fire‑Linked Monkey Figures
**1. Sun Wukong (China) — The Monkey King**
Sun Wukong is the clearest and most explicit example of a monkey associated with **solar light** and **celestial fire**.
Key connections:
– **Born from a magical stone infused with the essence of Heaven and Earth**, which released **golden beams of light** into the sky when he opened his eyes — a solar symbol. [Mythopedia](https://mythopedia.com/topics/sun-wukong/)
– Possesses **“True Sight” (Jin Jing Huo Yan)**, literally “Fiery Golden Eyes,” a power gained after enduring the flames of a celestial furnace. [Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sun_Wukong)
– In later legends, he seeks or interacts with **Celestial Fire**, a divine flame representing enlightenment and immortality. [chinese.mythologyworldwide.com](https://chinese.mythologyworldwide.com/the-monkey-king-and-the-quest-for-the-celestial-fire/)
– His name *Wukong* is often depicted with golden imagery, and he is frequently shown with **golden armor**, **a fiery aura**, or **sun‑like radiance**. [mythicalencyclopedia.com](https://mythicalencyclopedia.com/sun-wukong/)
Because of these traits, Sun Wukong is widely interpreted as a mythic figure tied to **solar power, illumination, and transformative fire**.
Are there other monkey–fire or monkey–sun connections?
While Sun Wukong is the most prominent, a few broader mythic patterns exist:
**2. Fire symbolism in Sun Wukong’s trials**
In some retellings, Sun Wukong undergoes trials involving **heavenly fire**, reinforcing his association with fiery transformation and cosmic energy. [chinese.mythologyworldwide.com](https://chinese.mythologyworldwide.com/the-monkey-king-and-the-quest-for-the-celestial-fire/)
**3. Monkeys in other cultures**
Most global mythologies do **not** strongly link monkeys to the sun or fire.
For example:
– **Hindu mythology** features Hanuman, a divine monkey, but he is associated with **devotion and strength**, not the sun or fire.
– **Mesoamerican cultures** (like the Maya) have monkey deities tied to **art and writing**, not solar or fiery domains.
Thus, **Sun Wukong stands alone as the clearest monkey figure with direct solar and fire connections**.
Summary
If you’re looking for **monkeys connected to fire or the sun**, the answer is overwhelmingly:
> **Sun Wukong — the Monkey King**, whose myth includes golden light, fiery eyes, celestial fire, and solar symbolism.
