If you dream of bears hibernating, this could indicate that some aspect of yourself is feeling very shut down or is being protected from something that isn’t beneficial for your health.

Negative Meanings

If you dream of watching a bear hibernating, this could represent your own instinctive need to protect yourself from other people or situations in your life. Perhaps it’s an aspect of yourself which is afraid of being criticized or hurt, but which you don’t have the resources to deal with in a healthy way. Qiu Zhanxiang (2003).

Bears have been hunted since prehistoric times for their meat and fur; they have also been used for bear-baiting and other forms of entertainment, such as being made to dance. With their powerful physical presence, they play a prominent role in the arts, mythology, and other cultural aspects of various human societies. In modern times, bears have come under pressure through encroachment on their habitats and illegal trade in bear parts, including the Asian bile bear market. The IUCN lists six bear species as vulnerable or endangered, and even least concern species, such as the brown bear, are at risk of extirpation in certain countries. The poaching and international trade of these most threatened populations are prohibited, but still ongoing.
