Bear House
power
The Bear House is where authority and resources concentrate. Money, leadership, physical strength, parental figures, and the weight of responsibility that comes with having power all operate through this position. A card here shows how power is being held and whether it is being used well.

When a supportive card lands here
Responsible stewardship. A supportive card here suggests resources are abundant, leadership is sound, and the person in charge — whether that is you or someone else — is using their influence constructively.
When a difficult card lands here
Control struggles. A difficult card here warns of financial pressure, authority wielded without fairness, possessiveness, or the burden of carrying more weight than one person should.
Reading this house
In the Grand Tableau, every card that lands in position 15 is coloured by this house's theme. Read the visiting card first on its own terms, then ask how power reshapes its meaning. A supportive card here amplifies the house; a difficult card creates friction within it.
