Not every person dreams in colour. Often people see black and white dreams, while some may be monochrome. People who are more aware of colours in waking lives will have more colourful dreams. However, it is more important to decipher a colour which is particularly striking in your dream, because it can be a separate symbol which in combination with the object will give you some extra information.

The first dreams which we have after falling asleep often revolve around the day's events. We go through them, sorting out and discarding things we don't need to remember and gaining insight into those we do. Often, we are inspired with suggestions that we can use to remedy the situations that plague us by day. As we progress through the night's dreams, they may take up more fantastic qualities, offering fanciful experiences. These often pleasant images can relieve the stress of the day. But the dream we have just before the awakening often contains information the subconscious mind wants to make known to the conscious. And this information, if remembered, interpreted, and understood, can serve as an important tool in our lives.
