Dreaming of bears mean outward aggression and hostility towards enemies and friends alike. There’s very little discretion as to who will not fear your imposing stature and desire for blood lust.
The bear is also viewed a protector of sacred wisdom. It may be unspoken, but the guardian knows more than meets the eye.
Also, dreaming of bears usually symbolize a need for self-protection. Bears may represent worries about personal safety, or concern for the safety of your loved ones.
When the bear is angry or dangerous, it indicates something is wrong that needs to be addressed. Sometimes dreaming about bears may mean you are feeling out of control and are worried about your own powerlessness. You may feel that you have lost control over your life and need to take back your authority and power.
Mothers will often dream about a bear in order to gain protection for their young children, who they perceive as cubs. This reflects their desire to protect their young from any harm, whether real or imagined.
