Thread: Color Quiz

Great to see people still participating in this experiment.
I will have to re tally the information.

I also have some more information gathered on color and our way we process it!

1. I have never had a dream in color = false

2. Do you dream in color? Yes If so how often? Almost every dream

3. My dreams mostly consist of this or these colors. The full spectrum. Weighted a little bit towards the cool colors (greens, blues, purples)

4. Do you have monochromatic dreams? % Not that I can remember.

5.*Do you have dreams in shades that do not reflect your everyday life? Rarely (I think)

6. Do you have black and white dreams? Yes, rarely, maybe 2 or 3%

7. Comments Nice topic, it really got me thinking about my dreams.
5.Questions or comments I don't really know how to answer that question.

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

2. Do you dream in color? If so how often? All or most dreams in color!

3. My dreams mostly consist of this or these colors.
Every color in the spectrum and they are also very extremely vivid and vibrant. Sometimes due to how bright and amazing they look I do a reality check and go lucid.

4. Do you have monochromatic dreams? % Rarely.

5.*Do you have dreams in shades that do not reflect your everyday life? YES see #3

6. Do you have black and white dreams? Rarely

7. Comments Interesting post and great experiment!
5.Questions or comments Let us know the results!

I know it is a little late in this experiment to be adding new criteria. But if anyone would be kind enough to add their predominant mood in there dreams with a significant color, I would appreciate this very much.
To ask even more, if anyone that has participated in this and can recall or has journaled these results and would like to edit their existing post and add that information, I thank you in advance.

My reasoning.
My interest in art has always required me to look and view color as a tool and an expression.
As it is most commonly perceived the Primary colors show these moods---- Below. ( I wish to parallel the dreaming frame of mind to that of our waking state and how we engage color.)
Thanks everyone!
*These can widley very from one individual to the next. They often suggest
Red = Stimulating, exciting, violent, spontenuity, passion
Yellow = Luminous, attention, health optimism, power, good weather.
Blue = coldness, serenity, restfulness, patience, peaceful

Secondary and any color can have implications.

My own experience. ( In dreams)
Green = peaceful. < yet Questioning
Yellow = uneasiness.
Red = violence
I have nothing else recorded.

That's a hard question. I'll think back, look at my DJ, and add it in to this reply later if I have time, but this could be a challenge.

1. I tend to dream a la 'Sin City', where everything is black and white except for some objects in colour. Once when I was very young I had a repeating dream for several years which was very vivid and in colour, not had it for a long time though and it still bothers me for some reason. [edit: while typing this it seems I remember several dreams in colour, although it's certainly not the majority of time, most of my dreams are set at night though, so that might explain it]

2. Not reguarly, but my dreams involve/are in colour once every few weeks-ish.

3. My dreams mostly consist of this or these colours - red, purple, brown, usually very stong, vivid, bright shades.

4. Do you have monochromatic dreams? 0% - unless black and white counts?

5. Don't really follow this question?

6. Yes, most of my dreams are predominantly black and white, that said they mostly take place at night, so it's dark and I can't really see colour anyway. Streetlights usually stand out as yellow, so maybe it's in colour, just really dark?

7. Like I have said, most dreams are set in darkness, so everything is black/white/grey with just the odd thing in vivid colour. I do have dreams in colour sometimes though, but it's always in the background, not symbolic or anything (i.e trees and grass are green, sky is blue etc, normal stuff)

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

2. Do you dream in color? If so how often? All my dreams.

3. My dreams mostly consist of this or these colors. Generally all colors. But the colors are usually quite desaturated except for one or two colors.

4. Do you have monochromatic dreams? % No.

5.*Do you have dreams in shades that do not reflect your everyday life?* I never notice that. All my dreams are usually desaturated like in question 3.

6. Do you have black and white dreams? No. I think I used to have these false awakening dreams that where B/W. But where I was sleeping it's very dark (cus its nightime).

7. Comments Great idea. I've always been amazed by colors in dreams.

I had this dream once where the main antagonist was a green car and in my whole life, I wasn't always fond of that color trying to kill me. Thing is, this car actually does exist! (I haven't seen it in like two years though.)

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

2. Do you dream in color? If so how often? I am not aware of any dreams that were not in color.

3. My dreams mostly consist of this or these colors: My dreams appear to utilize the same colors I find in waking life.

4. Do you have monochromatic dreams? % No.

5.*Do you have dreams in shades that do not reflect your everyday life?* Occassionally I have dreams where the colors are super bright, and most often (but not always) this occurs if I have dreamt about taking psychedelic drugs. The experience of heightened colors is similar to that of a mushroom trip.

6. Do you have black and white dreams? No.

7. Comments: Interesting. I've paid little attention to color in my dreams in the past, but I'll be more attentive from now on.

5.*Do you have dreams in shades that do not reflect your everyday life?-no, I tend to be pessismistic(sp?) mindset, ex. my room is dark blue and I rarely turn on light, even at night. My dreams hve a lot of dark colors too.

6. Do you have black and white dreams? no

1. I have never had a dream in color. No.

2. Do you dream in color? If so how often? 95% of the time.

The yellow seems right to me. It usually is uneasiness or the feeling like somethings going to happen bad.

EDIT: This is more of a survey than a quiz

My dream last night was full of violet colors, all of which were glows and trails. It was very mystical.

Maybe someone else has violet feeling like this too. Just thought I&#39;d bring it up.

6. Do you have black and white dreams? Not that I recall.

Interesting topic btw, I meant to post here a while ago

I&#39;d answer but my answers are basically "not sure" all the way through. I never make a note of the colours, and I guess after a while I still remember key elements to a dream but the colours just aren&#39;t important. I should try and take note next time.

1. I have never had a dream in color: Nope.

2. Do you dream in color? If so how often?: Yes, 95% of the time

3. My dreams mostly consist of this or these colors: Black, gray. I can&#39;t really think of anything else. Ocasionally green or brown. Not that these are the only colors that I see in dreams, far from it, but I never really notice any others in abundance.

4. Do you have monochromatic dreams? Don&#39;t think I&#39;ve ever had one.

5.Do you have dreams in shades that do not reflect your everyday life? They&#39;re often much darker, like every source of light has been dimmed. Also, colors that stand out like red/blue/green always seem faded, I occasionally see them but they aren&#39;t vivid and don&#39;t attract attention.

6. Do you have black and white dreams? Rarely but I have had a few.

7. Comments:
-There never is a color that really catches my eye in dreams, every color just seems to blend with the others.
-Concerning black and white dreams, I once had a dream where everything was black and white, but I think I realized it. I don&#39;t recall very much from it, but I think that I went lucid for a moment, and that when I did color returned. Even if I wasn&#39;t lucid, I am positive that the dream started black and white and ended in color.
-I can&#39;t recall one moment in any dream I&#39;ve ever had where something was red.
-The only blue that ever appears is mostly when I&#39;m near the ocean or another body of water in a dream. I rarely see the blue sky.

For the implications of colors, I can&#39;t really say much, except black: Fear, mystery, confusion, or the unknown.
