Polar bear
A polar bear lives where few others can, crossing ice and freezing water with ease. Dreaming of one brings out your own endurance: the ability to stay strong when things around you feel cold or distant. It can also be about independence and a need for space. A peaceful bear on the ice says you're handling a lonely or chilly stretch better than you think. If it came toward you, a strong personality or a big task is asking for your respect.
Also called: Polar bears, White bear, Ice bear
