Some of the house sigils are foreshadowing devices

I agree with OP that the Umber sigil is most likely forshadowing for the GreatJon breaking free. As soon as he got captured, I assumed we would see him go apeshit.



Other examples of forshadowing in the books:



_Freys have a double crossing on their sigil. And they double-crossed Robb



_ Bobby B had a stag. Cersei cheated on him, he was wearing horns.

House Tarly has a hunstman with a bow and a dagger. Sam already killed with a dagger and now he is practicing with longbow. Euron means to sack Oldtown. Krakens and leviathans are enemies to each other. Leo Tyrell called Sam a leviathan.

and...a huntsman blows a horn...the horn of winter! Down comes the wall, up comes the ice dragon, and Ragnarok officially begins.

The sigil for House Dondarrion is a lightning bolt - the electric revivification by fire of Beric (only that lightning struck SIX times in the same place - what are the odds?)

Sam's House is in Horn Hill, as you've said the horn of winter! Awesome! the horn he didn't sell in AFFC

«His swordbelt hung from a peg on the wall, beside the old cracked horn that Jon had given him.»

(AFFC, 26)

«By the time the dealing was done, Sam was down to his boots and blacks and smallclothes, and the broken horn Jon Snow had found on the Fist of First Men.»

(AFFC, 35)
