How often do you dream in color? (lemmy.ca)

I just had a dream with very distinct (and beautiful) colors, which made me think about how my other dreams are pretty boring

For me I think it only happens every few months (or years)

I typically only dream in color. I'm also one of the rare people who experiences pain in my dreams.

Like recently I had a dream where I was attacked by a shark and it bit my hands. It felt just like when my hands were bitten by a dog (in real life). I could feel my hands being crushed and hear the sounds of my cartridge crunching like in the dog bites.

Even if I don't have a reference point for it, I'll still experience pain for injuries like a gunshot or terrible aching pain radiating from a compound fracture or something. I've had zombie dreams where I've felt bites being taken out of me when swarmed and eaten alive.

Now if I could only learn to lucid dream reliably...
