Dreams and Interpretations
 

I interpret my own dreams, but I'm pretty sure that dreams can't be interpreted in detail and correctly by random people on the internet.

1. Color, though there have been times where my dreams are highly desaturated, but none completely black and white.

2. I do this a lot (lucid dreaming). Sometimes I play around with my dream, but usually I have a "screw this, next!" attitude where I either wake up or switch dreams.

1)Do you dream in colour, or black and white?
I never had a black and white dream,
but there are a few people say they never had one with colour!

I think perhaps I've had a few dreams where the color was drained out but not really black and white. I know I have most of my dreams in color and dreams where particular colors are important.

2)Are you able to realize that it's just a dream while you are dreaming?
When or if you do, can you do whatever you want in that dream?

Every so often I can have a dream going along a sort of plot line and it will suddenly go in a direction that seems wrong and that jars me to a point where I become alert enough to redirect it to the way I want to go. I can sometimes also jump from person to person in the dream and play it from different points of view or jump out and just be entirely the "cameraman" for a while.

I want to have a solid flying dream but the closest I get is being able to jump really far - like hill top to hill top.

Most of my dreams are about skiing down endless slopes of deep, dry powder snow. Don't need anyone to interpret those for me. I already know I'm hopelessly addicted to skiing! ;)

1)Do you dream in colour, or black and white?
Depends on the dream. Normally it's ordinary colour, sometimes I dream in black and white, sometimes black and white with highlights (eg, anything yellow is in colour, the rest isn't), sometimes it all runs on a monochromatic theme (eg, everything is in shades of blue)

2)Are you able to realize that it's just a dream while you are dreaming?
Almost never. I've had a few dreams where I've clued in that it's just a dream, but they're few and far between and always of one very particular sort. Often I kind of half-realize but I'm busy playing the part of someone else and I want to keep rolling and see where the story goes, so I let the knowledge that it's just a dream slide.

Does anyone else get sensory input during their dreams? I mean like taste, touch, smell, pain, hot, cold etc or is it all limited to visuals for you?

And have you ever died in a dream?

I've thought about this before, I think what I see while dreaming is vivid to a point where I want to say there was a sense of touch and maybe smell. I've been in places where being hot or cold were an issue but more saw effects than felt them. No sense of taste at all even when eating or drinking. Once I dreamt about eating an ice cream cone, but it tasted so bad I woke up - the whole corner of my pillow was wet like I'd been licking it. >_> So really my pillow did not taste like vanilla ice cream.

I have died in accidents and been killed in dreams but I don't go through with the experience. I jump out of my body into cameraman mode or become someone else.
