How color filled are your dreams. Has this changed with time?
Mine have , i have full colour dreams now , a while ago all my dreams were in black and white , they will get better trust me
My dreams have always been in color, I noticed as my dream control got better that my dreams were much more colorful like on the T.V. if you go into the picture settings and increse the color that's how they are now.
I find a lot of my dreams have a dull color tone to them. I can distinguish between certain colors but they're sometimes cloudy and lifeless. I have had a few dreams that I can remember that have been in full natural colors.
I used to get "non colored" (not black or white, but just no color at all) dreams, but now I get semi-colored dreams. It's complicated. :(
hmmm weird thread i thought evyerone would have a colored dream , ive never had a non colored dream
I've also always had my dreams in color.
Hey Tekken Dreams, do you play DR? If so, how do you like it compared to the others? I haven't played that version myself.
Last one I played was 5.0
my dreams have always been in color
Always dreamed in colour.
Colours may vary, from primary and bright colours to a full ocre scale, but I never dream in black and white, even when it's dark
Maybe it's related to nocturnal habits?
I rarely even see pictures in my dreams. When I do, it's never in color. I believe it will improve with time though!
I see them in colors.. Usually in one dream scenario certain colors are used more.. :confused:
I get greyscale dreams if I'm dead tired. I probably have more, but my mind will colourize them when I wake up.
I've noticed how colourful my dreams are tend to depend on the general tone of events. For example sad dreams of mine are often in very washed out shades of blue, while the fun lucids are very saturated bright colours.
I have always dreamed in vivid full color.
i've always dreamed in color. I only remember one dream that wasnt in color, and it had no picture at all.
Yep, always in color. I think I would be freaked out if I dreamed in black and white!
Now that you mention it I do recall having a dream a little bit ago that was in black in white, or maybe it was just really really dull colors.
aynone here ever have a dream in color and then have something turn black and white? that happened to me once when I was driving in a dream and noticed a house that was in black and white, and then a pile of leaves also. It startled me into having a good LD.
I would assume dream recall comes into play here. I do not understand why their would be drastic color variations in a dream, such as black and white dreams. Why would the brain do this? I would think as your dream recall improves the more vivid your colors become. Color is just another detail in the dream and if we are not good at recalling our dreams then we will mix up our colors and maybe recall them as different colors once we wake up. Anyone agree?
Full color in my dreams. I think. I'm not sure if I notice it, but it always seems like I have full vivid colors.
Yes, the full spectrum. Very vivid sometimes too.
I've always dreamed in full colour. Only maybe photo's for me are in black and white.
ive always dreamed in colour...but as for senses my dreams now have all 5 senses working and stronger than they are normally...and other senses which i cant explain like being able to feel everything around you mentally
My dreams are very real. Meaning, they are indeed in color.
Where'd that come from? Either way when I dreamt without color I never perceived black or white, I just ...knew something was there I guess. I don't know, there wasn't any color, but there wasn't any black or white either, so take that as you will. It was strange.
I rarely pay attention in normal dreams. I generally only remember a plot rather than vivid images. There are however some dreams where I remember colors, either because the color is somehow relevant to the plot or because some colors are particularly beautiful. And from the one lucid dream I had so far, I also know that I dream in color because in this lucid dream I paid attention to the colors. So, yes, I do dream in color.
LET'S CLEAR THIS OUT:
Everyone dream in color. Now, the fact that some may think they dream in black and white is because they can't recall colors. It's all a question of vividness and recall. Your dream may seem detailed but black and white simply because you're not remembering it. It's not that you don't remember your dream, but you simply aren't paying attention to colors. If you find that you recall your dreams in black and white there are ways to train yourself.
Take a long walk somewhere, pay attention to all colors around you. The color of the flowers, the trees, berries, animals, sky, stones and everything else. Really "feel" the colors and take notice of different tones and highlights.
Doing this just as you do reality checks will help you to pay more attention to the colors in your dream as well.
Now, your dream might be set in a black and white movie, but I'm talking about normal dreams.
Man sometimes my dreams are so cool
It's like I'm watching pieces of different movies. I think of someting, and i see it. It ends, I think of another think, and I see it.
I think it's my brain organizing memories or something.
My sense of color has grown year after year of dreaming. Anyone ever see PLEASANTVILLE? That movie has everything in black and white, then some things become colored. I have actually had weird mixed dreams. Some of the key items are bright and most are black and white. I have froze the picture in some dreams and had it seem like shades of tan rather than black and white. About 15 years into my dreams I started having dreams where ultra vivid colors actually had shades and shadow, and many distinct colors exist. I actually still have dreams that are only lightly colored. I know what some members mean about dreams with no imagery. That is even weirder.
doesn't every non color blind person dream in color?
lucidmike, being colour blind doesn't mean you cannot see colours. It means you have difficulty to recognise them.
Even if you are colour blind, you can dream in colour. The only way for one no to dream in colour at all would for him/her to have a disease that doesn't let them see any colour, from birth. I do not know of such a disease.
And EVEN SO, the stimuli for colour can also show up in dreams (even if you cannot see colour) so I doubt anyone dreams only in black and white.
As it has been said, I believe you only do not recall colour. The same happens with vividness. Sometimes you become lucid in a -oh-so-vivid dream, but when you wake up, you don't think it is that vivid anymore. The dream was vivid, but you cannot recall it perfectly.
Hmm, my dreams are always in colour. Usually wherever I am there is a lot of light though and it makes it rather hard to see anything other than white. In my last nights dream I saw my friend on a porn site and that was in colour (One of the only things in colour) :P.
my dreams are always colourful
A strange thing has been coming up with me lately. I am having a lot of dreams that are almost black and white and silver. Here is the odd thing, in the dreams like this I have had extremely good lucidity and dream control. The dreams that develop more color and details often seem to have more random elements and my thinking is cloudy. Very strange.
Thread locked for revival :P I know it's your thread, but you shouldn't bring up a thread that's almost 5 years old :) Just make a new one
