Confess! Who dreams in color? Who knows the sensation of flying?

[Baitball Blogger]

[ohiosmith]

1. Yep to both!

[Baitball Blogger]

3. Did you get that whole depth perception adjustment as you flew across the changing landscaping?

It only happened once for me, but it was very, very cool.

I dream in color all the time.

[ohiosmith]

4. Yes! Usually I'm flying through cities I know like New York, London, Paris, Vancouver, Los Angeles,

San Francisco. I'm fine until I land then I get lost. I can't recall ever dreaming in anything but color.

[NYC_SKP]

2. Yes to both.

[Robyn66]

5. Just color

I dont remember ever flying

[mucifer]

6. Yes to both. It felt like the wind is playing carrying me about in the sky.

I didn't have much control. But, it felt so good. It was soooo much fun. I have also had dreams where when I walk I can control very short flying motions and it also was a lot of fun. I wish I would have those dreams more often or remember them more if I am having them.

[Baitball Blogger]

8. I remember the feeling of weightlessness.

[mucifer]

13. Yes weightlessness but it's never scary. You can always trust the wind!

[Behind the Aegis]

7. Yes to both. I also dream in B/W, some have subtitles, and few have their own soundtrack.

I love sleeping!

[Baitball Blogger]

9. Subtitles!

Now that's a first.

[Behind the Aegis]

10. I don't always dream in English.

Why my brain feels the need to subtitle, I couldn't explain. Thought, sometimes my dreams are in a language I don't know or understand, and thus the subtitles, which makes sense...sort of.

[Bertha Venation]

52. Fascinating.

Really. This is fascinating.

[ashling]

11. Yes and Yes

At times my flying dreams have been so real that they leave me with the sensation during waking hours that I could actually fly.

[Baitball Blogger]

14. Now that's got to be cool.

[ashling]

20. Yeah, but

it's a real downer when I realize I can't - pardon the pun

[murielm99]

27. That is the way I have felt, too, after

having flying dreams.

Unfortunately, I have not had a flying dream in a long time. I wish they would come back.

[ashling]

59. Here is another one

[CaliforniaPeggy]

12. My dreams are always in color...When I was a girl, I used to dream I could fly.

It was really fun!

Haven't had those dreams in decades, alas...

[Baitball Blogger]

15. Are you telling me that you didn't even get good drugs at the hospital to

stimulate those kind of dreams?

Bummer.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

18. Hey, I came home the same day! They wanted me to WAKE UP!

Last Feb., when I had my knee replaced..... THEN I had some interesting dreams while I was in the hospital.

[riderinthestorm]

16. I have the one where I'm late for a final exam for a class I've blown off all semester

Can't even remember where the classroom is located... I HATE that dream.

Haven't had one in decades but my "flying" dreams were on a swingset and I'd jump off when I was at the highest point of the arc. I'm falling through the air - definitely NOT flying.

Then there's the ones where I'm having sex with completely inappropriate people

I always dream in color.

[Baitball Blogger]

17. I've had the classroom dream.

My dreams are usually about traversing through hallways, (schools and dorm rooms) and Malls. Except, I know the narrow corridors represent journeys, challenges and/or a combination of time and human interactions.

[vanlassie]

24. I have that exact school dream.

Hate it. My flying ones are that I can move by jumping and soaring and then jumping as though I am lighter than air. Very real. Love it.

[Tunkamerica]

31. The classroom thing is pretty common. I always dream I'm falling off a bike which usually wakes me.

[Amaril]

19. Yes to both

I also often dream that I'm a contortionist (all bendy & twisty like a pretzel person).

[Honeycombe8]

21. I dream in color. I don't recall flying in a dream, but I have fallen, which is similar.

Any particular reason you ask?

[Baitball Blogger]

22. None at all. I was amused by the threads that began with the word, "Confess"

So I decided to start my own thread. The topic just popped in my head.

[Lasher]

23. I can do both.

Sometimes I realize I'm dreaming and decide to fly around for fun. Just now zombies were after me and I thought it was real. I guess I didn't think about flying away because I was protecting my family. I am the only one who can fly, you see. I couldn't sleep after that so here I am.

[Brother Buzz]

25. I simply don't remember any colors in my dreams and...

I don't remember flying, but I often jump down mountains and hills in my dreams. I was an exceptional glissader in my youth, and I guess I notched it up a bit in my dreams. I simply run and leap and let gravity carry me down. I stretch and arch like I'm doing a long jump landing and I never touch touch the earth. Funny, with all my jumping down slopes, I have no memory of even landing.

[Tunkamerica]

30. I start running and lean back. Flying feet first, looking up.

[Brother Buzz]

37. That's what I do

but I was told I'd go blind if I pull back on the stick.

[Bertha Venation]

53. hahahahahaha

Duzy

[sakabatou]

26. I used to dream in color, but never flew.

Ever since 2007, I never dreamed (or at least I don't remember them).

[Baitball Blogger]

39. I went through a period where I lost my dreams, too.

Or, I only remembered the ones that woke me up--usually nightmares.

The good dreams are coming back.

[sakabatou]

57. I'm still not dreaming

One of the weirdest ones I had as a kid was where I was chased by a brass water pitcher.

[fizzgig]

28. in color, with sound

i've flown, i can breathe underwater. fox is often my companion.

[JesterCS]

35. i had a dream I was on the moon once and couldnt breath

then again, I have Sleep Apnea.. so.. could have been an attack.

[fizzgig]

49. i had a dream where i couldn't breathe once

i think the cat was laying on my face. scared me, though.

[Tunkamerica]

29. I do (but i fly on my back?) and contrary to popular wisdom i swear i read in my dreams.

I've also cut the lights on and off.

[fizzgig]

32. i've read in my dreams

[Tunkamerica]

33. there was some movie (inception? maybe not) that posited you could know if you were

dreaming by trying to read or flipping a light switch

[fizzgig]

48. i didn't see that movie

but i don't know that i've ever used a light switch in a dream.

[Tunkamerica]

61. try it next time you're semi-lucid

[LeftishBrit]

38. I definitely read in my dreams

I once dreamt that I was re-reading 'Jane Eyre' and there was a passage about someone getting into trouble for sending e-mails about drug-taking. In my dream I thought 'But did they have e-mails in the 19th century?' and went back to the passage to re-read it, but the reference to e-mails was still there.

[JesterCS]

34. yes to both

the one that always gets me though is the feeling of "falling". especially if you are dozing and not fully asleep. I dont know how many times i've violently jerked because i thought i was falling off a couch or bed.

[Baitball Blogger]

40. I wake up when I step into a hole.

[LeftishBrit]

36. I think I always dream in colour

A lot of my dreams are mainly about conversations; but I have some dreams which are basically just about seeing objects, and the colour is very salient in those dreams: one recent dream was all about pink balloons, and another was about watching ten white ducks.

[LynneSin]

41. I have dreams of being paralyzed

What's weird is I realize that I'm dreaming but I try to move and I can't like I really am paralyzed.

[Baitball Blogger]

46. I had those when I was younger.

I even had a dream where the upper part of my body was elevating, but I was anchored down by the weight of my butt. I was a skinny little kid, too.

[frogmarch]

42. Always color, but when I fly

my body is always in a vertical position and the people chasing me can almost grab my feet. I hate that.

[Baitball Blogger]

45. You need more lift.

[KamaAina]

43. The girl in that Pearl Jam song

[KamaAina]

44. Flying? Hell, I know the sensation of crash-landing!

Into the atrium of a building in Atlanta. On my feet.

[Baitball Blogger]

47. Sounds like a nightmare.

[bikebloke]

50. Both

Always dream in color. When flying I always tried to avoid touching the ground because I was afraid I wouldn't go aloft again. Though it's been a while since I flew - I must have touched the ground.

[Bertha Venation]

51. I frequently fly in my dreams, and

just as frequently, I almost weep when I wake up, because it was just a dream.

[GoCubsGo]

54. Yes to both. Unfortunately....

Many of my flying dreams involve trying to fly around high tension power lines. I also have dreams where I can jump hundreds of feet into the air, although those also come with being afraid I won't come back down. Those still beat the my dreams of being in elevators that have the tendency to get stuck between floors, or even worse, drop several floors in free-fall.

[Gidney N Cloyd]

55. My wierd twist on the flying dream:

And I've had this many times. I can fly but only over waterfront areas like over the sand at the beach. If I veer off over nearby grassy areas I gently descend to the ground but I can take off again if I run toward the beach.

[femmocrat]

56. I always dream in color. I have very vivid dreams.

And I have dreamed of flying, although I have never actually done so.

[lunatica]

58. I dream in color and as a kid I could fly in my dreams

I escaped many a monster by flying away. I've also felt the breeze on my face when I run. My ex said I always talked in Spanish in my sleep too.

[Populist_Prole]

60. Definitely dream in color, but no to the flying.

My dreams are consistently very vivid though.
