The bear does not really "stand" for anything in the traditional Navajo religion. There are bears in some traditional stories and a clan and a mountain that has the bear (or it's spirit) as a protector but the bear is not really a big part of traditional belief. It is important in one ceremony, the Mountain Way chant. Hunting bear or eating it is considered taboo. Traditional Navajo do not wear bear claws or parts.
