Big Bear Medicine and the Power of Woman. From birth, Bear and Man are remarkably similar. They each enter the world as a blank slate with only instinct. They each must master, through their experiences, the tasks required to operate in their world. They each exhibit vast differences in temperament and develop distinct personalities. They are each equally unpredictable. It is impossible to predict the behaviour of a strange human or a strange bear but is not complicated to predict the behaviour of a familiar human or a familiar bear. Both are at risk for physical and emotional damage if they are not cared for early in life. Without the skills acquired through being taught by a mother, neither bear nor man would survive. There have been observations of bears displaying mal-adaptive behaviour or acting "neurotic" in the absence of another to teach them.In bringing Bear into our lives, we must feel the power of the feminine. Bear lives alone and relies on no one but herself. She is a single parent and must provide all physical and emotional needs for her cubs. She is loving and kind as she teaches her children about life but she is also a fierce disciplinarian if her children do not learn the lesson fast. She is disciplined in all things, including her own behaviour. She sets limits and boundaries for herself and for others and will not tolerate others taking advantage of her. These limits and boundaries are communicated by attitude rather than by words. Bear demands respect.
She has a high level of concentration and focuses on a goal without wavering. It has been said that Bear can stop a hunter from shooting her through her concentration. Making and maintaining goals is using the power of Bear. Bear will help with the focus and concentration needed for the completion of goals. The yearly cycle maintained by Bear symbolizes the cycle of birth, growth, decay and rebirth. This can be seen in the ability to regulate one's life, on both a physical and emotional levels. Bear is the supreme model of this cycle and therefore the guiding spirit of the theme of renewal. Living Bear is to move in these cycles, be fully alert at all times but settle down into a hibernate state to renew energy and prepare for the next cycle. The renewal process provides a pressure gauge for our emotional well-being, allowing us to cycle our emotions inward and outward as the situation demands. Bear teaches us that we can be kind without giving up our boundaries and that we can be generous without giving up ourselves, we can, like Bear, go to the cave and hibernate.
