Someone once told me that we humans don't dream in color.
Do what???
One dream I remember the colors vividly, as if it were real.
I was flying over the clouds, being taken somewhere I didn't want to go, but I couldn't believe how beautiful it was, the sun reflecting on the clouds all pink and orange and gold. It was stunning.

Do you remember your dreams in color?

    What colorful dreams do you remember?

    AET might get you some responses.

    Is this thread a result of indica or sativa?

    Sounds to me you were abducted. And I don't believe sativa or indica would cause this. At least not with me.

    This is very interesting, I didn't know about this. All the dreams I've dreamt and no way I can remember if they were in colors or not. Gave me something to think about this morning :) thanks Theia

    Also when we are dreaming we can't read, as language is a written text. So if in your dream you came across a written text like a newspaper or a sign on the street it would not be letters just a blur.

    I've seen colors in dreams, and inhaled nostalgic scents too.

    The mind's pretty powerful. Love the trips taken.

    Whether or not assisted by the green, I firmly believe that the brain is connected to the dream-bone :)

    Wtf? Are quotes not working anymore or something? I was asking if that "no reading" thing is true that I'm-a-PJ-fan-and-won't-ever-leave-unfortunately wrote.

    Color is a standard formation point in memorization, there fore it is supposed that when we dream in color, it is memory based, ( as in past thoughts, ideals, and even fears!) and when we dream in black and white, it is due to lack of information on the things found in our subconscious..


    This always seemed hokey to me.. But I have no clue.. It's just a note I took from Psychology class back in 92. As for reading in dreams, that part isn't true.. I have read things in my dreams.. It didn't make logical sense, as the one I can remember was I read a sign that told me: he he's water within walls. Don't ask! That's all I can remember of the dream.. Anyhow.. I always found that psychology note interesting.. I found Psychology interesting, until we got into motivations.. Then I just found humans more disturbing than ever..

    I rarely remember my dreams, but next time I do I will try to remember if it is in color!

    PS - Nice, thought provoking thread based on PJ lyrics...Not sure why people get bent over where stuff is posted???

    Merry Christmas everyone!

    I know I dream in colour. One time I did have a black and white dream, and I woke up really tripped out.

    What I always wonder about is wtf people who have been blind since birth dream of. :-/
