Dubhe

Imum Coeli Conjunct Dubhe

Dubhe is the Great Bear's pointer, a star of raw protective power and primal strength. At the Imum Coeli it lives in the home and the ancestral ground: a family that shields fiercely, a private base of deep instinctive force, roots that hold firm under threat. That guarding power steadies you, though it can wall you in, so read the star with the whole chart.
