I seem to always have dreams about a bear. Now, I've read the dictionary and themes page on what the bear symbolizes, but I would like to know more if possible.

Dream #1: I am in a dense forest with moss on the ground everwhere, and two bears, a mother and baby, attack 3 deer around me. I feel fear, but I get away

Dream #2: I see 2 bears (not sure if it's a mother or baby, etc.) at the park behind my house. They are in bushes. I again feel fear. Can't remember what happens.

My most recent dream
Dream #3: I am on the patio in my backyard. My patio was distorted and had elongated steps which ended near the back of my backyard. I walk down the many steps and I see the baby bear by a tree. I start provoking it, making threatening motions. The baby bear gets very angry and chases after me up the steps. My fear is extreme now and I run as fast as I can up the steps. I then jump off the steps into an abyss.




In the Animal Themes section about the bear, it says that sometimes the bear symbolizes a parent. Does it have any significance? I've been kinda provoking my parents lately....

Did you read what it says about Deer in Animal Dreams? I think that might be significant and also, like it says in the dictionary, I think it depends how you feel about bears in general?
