Some people remember their dreams in colour, others in black and white. Some people never remember their dreams, some remember them lots. However, just because you remember a dream in colour or b+w doesn't in itself mean the actual dream was in either colour or b+w, only that the memory is.

There are several stages (and kinds of dreams). Some experts claim that women dream in color far more often than men. That said, dreams mimic real life and much of real life occurs during the night when the rods of the eye's retina see only in black and white. During the day the cones of the eye predominate and we see mostly in color. It is unlikely that anyone dreams a night scene in full color. Except perhaps for those who are color blind there is no reason that a person (man or woman) cannot dream in black and white (night) or in full color (day). Beyond that people often have "vivid dreams" in which all the colors may be more vivid than in real life. Grass is green but often not as green as a pail of deep green paint. Some vivid dreams are as clear as color photographs without exaggerations and seem so real. Because most dreams are lost by sunrise, it is often necessary for a sleep lab to interrupt dreams (when rapid eye movements appear) to help a person document their dream abilities. Hope that gives you something to sleep on. Pleasant dreams.

The colour we see in our dream is the combination of the many images in our sub-concious part of the brain.

It can be colourful according to the image created by our mental sub-concious or it can be black and white especially if you watch a black and white movie.

You can think the dream to be a clash between the thoughts and memories that you have kept in your mind.

Research shows that the majority of our dreams are in color. In the sleep lab, Robert Van de Castle, Ph.D. reports that when awoken from the REM state, distinct color was reported in 70% of the cases and vague color in another 13%.

The reason most people perceive dreams as colorless appears to be a matter of recall. Spontaneous non-laboratory dream reports (normal daily dream recall) indicate that only about 25% (Van De Castle) to 29% (Hall) of dreamers recall color (partial or full color).

Color recall may have to do with the nature of our consciousness in dreams, as observed by the vivid colors usually associated with Lucid dreams. Another important aspect of color recall may be the emotional intensity of the dream or the colored imagery. People have a tendency to recall the most emotionally impacting or stimulating parts of a dream, and not so much the rest.

Perhaps there is emotional significance to the specific dream colors we recall. This may explain why our brain assigns certain color to dream objects particularly when the color can be optional, for example dreaming of a red car versus a blue car.

This is going into the contraversial colour theory argument. human beings have argued for years about the actual existence of colour. Photons (undemanding) hit on the exterior of an merchandise and the incompatible photons get meditated and attain our eyes. We then convert this signal in our seen device (which contains eye and mind) into perceived colour. So the colour we "see" in straightforward words exists at the same time as it truly is processed in our brains. One glaring is that after we change into attentive to hues, we perceive in accordance with their context. for instance, all of us recognize that the fairly yellow-stained enamel of a lady could look whiter at the same time as she wears outstanding red lipstick. The context the following is the red around the yellow enamel. because dream takes position in straightforward words interior our heads, it may nicely be in colour (we are able to change into attentive to the dream with hues); or it can merely be in black and white, besides the shown actuality that the latter is a lot uncommon than the first. i don't believe of the "colour" we see in our aims are categorize as an similar "colour" we see with our eyes. The "colour" in aims are more effective of a sense, more effective of the feeling that i recognize what the article is, truly than understanding what the article really seem as if in info (colour, structure, style...)

dreams are in colour, if you learn to focus on it you will remember the colours in your dreams.
It can be a colour that you have seen a lot the day before your dream but that is not always true.

It is never black and white. Rather, it is as colourful as the world you see.

the above answers are wrong. research shows that our dreams are black and white. they are generally as silhouttes.


most people say that their dreams are color... thats not totally correct because the mind fills the color in subconciously so that they appear realistic.

our dreams are very fast... an hour in dream may be 5 minutes in real. mind does not have time to imagine color to each and every frame we dream. it reproduces it in color when we think over it when we wake up.
