A few years ago, I had a dream of a Goddess. She was in Polar Bear form and wore armor similar to Iorek from The Golden Compass, only Her armor was silver and Her helmet was more ornate. She had a powerful regal and noble air to Her. She also had a quiet male Polar Bear consort with Her. We walked, we talked, She gave me an important lesson, then we parted and I woke up. I know it was a Goddess, because Animal Spirits don't speak to me, only communicate through gestures and images, even in the Dreamscape and the Astral. Plus, I knew She was a Goddess; but She never mentioned her name. And I know it was a real deity, not a dream deity. I've worked with Dream Magik long enough to know the difference.
This sort of thing isn't unusual for me, often Deities will come to me in dream and not say who they are, they'll only leave vague clues as to who they are. It's not always significant either. One time, my Matron, Hestia, visited me, accompanied by two cloaked Goddess (one in yellow, the other in green), who never introduced Themselves.
I've done some research on Goddesses in relation to Bears, like Artemis, Artio, and a few others. I'm a follower of Artemis now, and the Polar Bear doesn't feel the same (not to mention that Artemis is usually accompanied by a Stag or a Hare for me). I also felt that the Polar Bear was specific, if that makes any sense.
I had just accepted it; I often do. If They feel that Their identity is important, then They'll say something or give clues. The Nameless Polar Bear Goddess. Cool. But every time I see a Polar Bear, I think of Her and I wonder. More and more this question is poking at me. Who was this?
I can't really meditate/journey too often anymore due to my kids, although I'm going to try another method to try and get some answers. However, I was wondering if any of you have and ideas as to who this might be? Any at all.
Thanks.
