Polar Bear
A polar bear — white and seemingly pure but deadly — often touches deceit, misfortune approaching in fair aspect, bitter enemies wearing the garb of friendship. The dream may ask who is coming at you cloaked in apparent goodwill, and whether you can see, beneath the innocent-looking surface, the rival or threat moving to supersede you.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for polar bear, in their own words. They are period voices, not predictions, and they do not always agree with one another.
Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
Polar bears in dreams, are prognostic of deceit, as misfortune will approach you in a seeming fair aspect. Your bitterest enemies will wear the garb of friendship. Rivals will try to supersede you.
To see the skin of one, denotes that you will successfully overcome any opposition.
