Color Quiz

Hi!
This is an excellent research topic in my opinion:). I'll definitely be visiting this thread more often to check for more interesting data. Here is my answers:

1. I have never had a dream in color. False.

2. Do you dream in color? If so how often? Yes, probably about 90% of my dreams have colours in them.

3. My dreams mostly consist of this or these colors. 'Regular' colours. I haven't noticed any specific colours recurring in my dreams, but i've noticed that sometimes the dreams are coloured in very 'organized' ways. The dream might be mainly made up of dark shades of different colours, or then very bright versions of all colours (See also answer to question 6). This colour grouping doesn't happen that often though...or maybe i just haven't paid attention to it...hmmm...i dont' know...:hrm:
I was actually lucid in one of the dreams that had really bright colours in it. Perhaps a reflection of the increased clarity of my consciousness…?

4. Do you have monochromatic dreams? Yes, but extremely rarely.

5. Do you have dreams in shades that do not reflect your everyday life? Yes, but i can't remember a dramatic example right now.

6. Do you have black and white dreams? Yes. This is odd, because my nightmares too are usually the ones to be black and white (with shades of greys at times). Predominant emotion was obviously fear. I didn't know others had black and white nightmares too… Really interesting stuff.:P It would be fascinating to study more extensively how much or in what ways emotions affect the colour schemes of dreams. :) The dreamscience.org page looked good. Has anyone read the book by Hoss?

7. Comments. I don't know how much of a contribution these answers are but hopefully there will be something useful/helpful that you can extract from my vague answers.:P

1. I have never had a dream in color
I always dream in color.

2. Do you dream in color? If so how often?
Always.


3. My dreams mostly consist of this or these colors.
Normal colors as would be expected in life, though sometimes more vivid than reality.

4. Do you have monochromatic dreams? %

Only when the time of day would make it appropriate, as in dusk or night dream settings.

5.*Do you have dreams in shades that do not reflect your everyday life?
No - but vividness can be greater than IRL.

6. Do you have black and white dreams?
Again - only when appropriate as to normal lighting conditions for when and where the dream is occurring.

Awesome guys/ gals!! Thanks so much.
Again I will, when I get time compile the new data and compare it with that of the old and see what pans out.

Monochromatic and black and white dreams seem to be symbols of something.
This may be something to take note of.
Because they seem to be rare, we may be able to possibly pin down their meaning.
Having looked through some my dream journal entries, I have found that my dreams that have been a predominant green has shown me that they have all been reminiscent in nature.

This could be a dream sign. Although I like the dreams as they are. I don't know if I would wish for my conscious opinion to mess them up. :P

Who knows. Maybe it is our own psyche that strips away our color, as if it were the life to any positive emotion. Ha ha.. maybe not. There is likely a reason though. Don't you think
Hoss? No Can you elaborate? :Smile"

I don't know... What would be the common factor among the people who have black-and-white nightmares, that their psyches should be the ones to do so? And what would determine which nightmares this would happen in?
Keep writing more of your thoughts, it's very interesting stuff to read.

It seems to me that many of the nightmares are vacant of color. At least very many colors.
Universally, many colors often symbolize specific things. Our at least taught to be so in relation while rendering art. If our minds perceive colors consciously looking at a piece of art, in similar fashion, then I think our subconscious would follow suite.

As I think that our dreams, created from our right brain, abstract hemisphere would reinforce the concept of some commonly accepted abstract patterns.
I.E.
~cool colors - calm, tranquil. (restful harmonious lines and shapes.
~Hot colors, curving lines or sharp lines , sensual, bliss, violent.
There are so many variables and additions to these abstract set of principles. I just am trying to make some correlation to the patterns of the colors in our dreams and using the conscious set of ideas as building blocks to further understanding.

Any ideas or thought, please do jot them down.
This format for the "color quiz" is far from smoothed out. I am just throwing ideas up in the air and monitoring where they fall. :hrm:

Yes

1) I have never had a dream in color.
False

2) Do you dream in color? If so how often?
Yes. From the dreams I can recall 100% were in color.

3) My dreams mostly consist of this or these colors.
I see all colors, but green, yellow, and blue seem to dominate. Out of those I'd say yellow is the most, and my dreams seem to have a very very slight yellowish tint to them.

4) Do you have monochromatic dreams?
Maybe I have, but I don't recall a single one.

5) Do you have dreams in shades that do not reflect your everyday life?
The shades of color in my dreams are a little more pale and washed out most of the time. If I become lucid the opposite happens and they tend to intensify.

6) Do you have black and white dreams?
No, unless you count dreaming it is night. In that case of course you'd see in black and white.

7) Comments
The sky in my dreams is not blue in at least 25% of dreams. In these cases it is usually orange or yellow as if the sun is setting, or recently purple.
