If the Bear is your Algonquin birth totem, you are naturally curious. The more difficult the puzzle, the more it intrigues you. Once a mystery unravels your next action is sharing that information, but such a gift should be balanced with caution. You don't want to spoil a surprise or an epiphany for someone else.
Bear folks are practical and discrete. You like sitting back and gathering information for future use. Bears are also very physical people who respond to sensual input strongly. One of the challenges for Bears is understanding that there is more to this world than what we encounter on the corporal level. Your spiritual self isn't easily categorized in the tidy filing cabinet of your mind.
Your personal space is very important to you. That cave is secure and welcoming. It is a place where you can safely explore all aspects of your inner world. You go to that sacred place for quiet revitalization.
Bears are not creatures of change. What others call "same-old, same old" you find comfortable and assuring. Nonetheless, you must learn how to handle transformations; OTHERWISE you will never truly grow into your fullness.
