I wasn’t able to find a lot of information on the symbology of the grey wolf by itself, but there is a plethora of information available on alchemy out there on the internet.
The wolf devouring the sun represent purification of gold by antimony.
“In Prelude to Chemistry: An Outline of Alchemy“, The alchemical wolf in general represents a corrosive or “biting” agent, sometimes an acid …. the grey wolf is clearly antimony which was known to the alchemists as lupus metallorum,or “wolf of the metals,” because it “devoured,” or united with, all the known metals except gold.
The metal antimony symbolizes the animal nature or wild spirit of man and nature.
Tao Talk 
Antimony is a chemical element that is a lustrous gray metalloid, found in nature mainly as the sulfide mineral stibnite. Antimony compounds have been known since ancient times and were powdered for use as medicine and cosmetics. The principle use of antimony is in flame retardants where it is most commonly used as a synergist to improve the performance of other flame retardants. As a metal strengthener, antimony is used in batteries, from cell phones to hybrid vehicles, and cable sheathing. Antimony is often blended with textiles, plastics and paints to make them safer.

Thank you very much for that info. For some reason I was thinking it was something used only long ago, not in modern society.

Us humans sometimes forget that we’re animals don’t we? It’s easy enough to do I. I love this reminder.

You are welcome. Thank you for reading and yes, it even seems like there is an effort to promote humans to a more exalted status. It will be our downfall if we don’t get reconnected as a society to nature and our animal nature within it.
