Do you dream in color?

I know for a fact that when I dream I see color but I never paid attention to see if the colors matched or what type of color scheme they were. Were they cool? Warm? Complimentary? Were they colors that were just “there” to represent something in my dream or did they actually represent the object they were portraying?

Do we dream what I call “emotional colors” that are vibrant and bouncy or are they mellow, pastel colors? This is something worth paying attention to. 

Benjamin Moore Dreamscape colors could be:

Enchanted
Mellow Yellow
Return to Paradise
Hazy Blue
Misty Teal
Dreamy Cloud

If not by the color but by the name alone - just dreamy!

    we would have to pay attention to our dreams, which would mean trying to be aware in an unaware or unconscious state. i'm confused but i think it can be done...

  4. Don't be confused - it 's called Lucid dreams - being aware in a dream state

  7. Sure do! I grew up on the Long Island sound, Port Jefferson, NY. It was a beautiful and colorful place to grow up. My favorite colors are the beach glass blue and green - and all the other coastal colors too!

    Thank you for the post!
