The bear has several meanings that will inspire those who have this animal as totem:
- The primary meaning of the bear spirit animal is strength and confidence
- Standing against adversity; taking action and leadership
- The spirit of the the bear indicates it’s time for healing or using healing abilities to help self or others
- The bear medicine emphasizes the importance of solitude, quiet time, rest
- The spirit of the bear provides strong grounding forces
- The Black Bear spirit animal encourages you to set clear boundaries. Do not compromise under stressful conditions. You can get what you want. Hold your dreams. Spend some time alone to reflect on your life and get new ideas.
With the black bear you should also consider any teachings coming from hybernating like they do. Is there an issue that needs to be dealt with later? Maybe you need to seek self care and rest before you do anything else. Maybe you should feed your body before the big sleep.
As helpful as the traditional meanings are, it is also very important for you to reflect on what a black bear means personally to you in order to work with it’s medicine.
The black bear is highly intuitive. From knowing what to do be before, after, and during hibernation, to their hunting instincts and more, so for this reason it is a great animal guide to work with when you need to reconnect with your intuition.
If the black bear came to you during meditation or soul journey it can be inviting you to be aware and self reflect of your current connection with your intuition so you can strengthen it, or even to learn how to use it, as not everyone is aware that their intuition is actually very powerful.
Let’s not forget the strength of this little bear, as it might not be the biggest between bear but is still such a mighty creature. And it is this strength that you too can call to your aid when you work with bear spirit guides. If one has appeared to you during a healing session is because they are offering their strength and other spiritual properties to you, and asking for help is not needed as they have come to you already.
If you ever had the pleasure to observe a bear you will see that unless they are chasing something or running away from something they tend to move slowly, which is another lesson that comes from the bear spirit animal. Some things need to be dealt with speed, other things need patience and a slow approach, and when the black bear comes to you, it could mean that you are rushing in some area of your life, maybe on a particular decision. Again self awareness and contemplation will be bale to clue you in. But you can always just ask in your mind for the black bear spirit guide to be more clear and to visit you in dreamland to show you more about what you need to know.
You can always study their behavior, check some videos, look for synchronicities any time you see a black bear and see how is the universe trying to get your attention.
