Has anyone else ever had colorful and colorless dreams?

Asked by dee1313 (953points) July 28th, 2009

When I was younger, I had colorless dreams. The best way to describe them is black and white, but when I dream those colors are there, there is just no color. Usually there is no defining shapes for what I am dreaming about, either, almost like what I would imagine having terrible vision is like. Although the shapes are vague, I still clearly know what it/he/she is.

I’ve also had very colorful dreams that vary in how vivid they are, but everything is very clear, no wishy washy stuff. They are usually kind of bright, and busy.

I feel that dreams are just reflections on how we feel or what is on our minds (or what we’re recently encountered during our waking/sleeping hours). Though, I have no idea whether having a dream in color or if it is colorless has any significance. Oftentimes my colorful dreams are crazy so I have difficultly understanding why I would dream them. The only one I can remember is the first, which mashed Willy Wonka and Resident Evil into my dream.
