Black Bear (December 22 - January 20)

You often find yourself in a position of tribal elder in your community because you represent a foundational cornerstone within the tribe.

You might call it common sense, but those you dispense advice to see your wisdom earthshaking. In reality, you have a unique ability to see several steps ahead and know how to incorporate practical measures to bring about solid results to any endeavor.

You recognize the value of hard work in order to obtain a goal. More importantly, you have a quality of patience that is remarkable.

You can lay months in waiting and planning in order to see the fruits of your labor ripen.

Part of your life lesson is to recognize that even though your ways are proven reliable, they are not always they right ways for everyone (particularly the tribal youths).
