夢想色解密-dream language：self-understanding through color
大家先來猜猜下面的夢主真實生活中的狀態吧：
Let"s guess the real life state of the following dreamer:
A :「In the dream I was one of three women, and was wearing a red hat. We were going into town, walking along a road, when suddenly we sank into the ground.」
「夢中，我們三個女人一起去城裡玩，我戴著一頂紅色的帽子，我們在路上走著走著，突然摔了下去。」
B:「......後來，洪水來了。我試著去救我那被水捲走的狗，但它不肯鬆開一根被咬住的木頭。唯一的顏色是棕色的木頭。「
「Later a flood came by. I tried to save my dog who was in the water, but he would not let go of a piece of wood held tight in his teeth. The only color was the brown wood.」
C:"我夢見紅黃藍綠四個球體。藍色的那個球體分離開來像『魔戒』一樣落在我的手上，讓我感到擁有了解決一切問題的能量。"
「I dreamed of a blue sphere which was part of a group of four spheres colored red, yellow, blue and green. The blue sphere separated and landed on my finger like a "magic" ring that I perceived would give me the power to solve all my problems.」
學過色彩心理學的同學都知道，
每種色彩都有其個性和感染力，
藍色讓人平靜、紅色讓人興奮，
橙色勾人食慾、綠色讓人平和，
人們自發的對特定的色彩會產生特定的心理狀態。
通過對色彩心理的揣摩，
我們大致可以通過夢的色彩來幫助人們正視或者發掘潛在被忽略的心理狀態和生活態度。
以上三個夢境來自Bob Hoss一系列關於夢的形象和色彩的試驗數據，
通過色彩心理學分析，與夢主當時的生活狀態和心理狀態相當吻合。
同學們請留言猜測她們的狀態吧，

以下科普夢中色彩心理學知識，沒耐心的同學可以直接拉到最下面看答案：
研究發現，
色彩直接影響自主神經系統，
大腦的電反應會隨著光譜的變化而變化。
也就是說，
藍色使副交感神經支平靜，
紅色使交感神經支興奮，使心跳和呼吸分別減少和增加。
大腦對紅色的反應是警覺和喚醒，
而對藍色的反應是放鬆。
我們大腦中有一個叫做邊緣系統的部分，
它接收包括色彩在內的所有感官輸入，
然後將情感一一進行分配。
比如遇到危險的時候，
它會第一時間提醒我們，
並提供三種模式供我們選擇：
勇敢的去戰鬥、識時務的逃跑、或是獃頭鵝般的凍結反應。
這貨極可能還負責人類的共情反應（共同的情感聯想），
比如害怕、快樂、悲傷等。
下次說某人冷血，
可以換個說法說他大腦邊緣系統不達標，
絕對又文藝又優雅又高深。
一般來說，
紅色對應的是被擾亂的體驗、外部世界的吸引、情緒的激發、具有攻擊性、讓人興奮和衝動。
綠色則是脫離塵囂回歸自我，冥想、任務的完滿實現。
曾有人對房間顏色及其對兒童學習影響進行了三年的研究，
結論是黃色、黃綠色、橙色和淺藍色能促進孩子學習，
而白色、黑色和棕色會讓孩子的學習情緒下降，
橙色還可以改善孩子的社會行為。
（熊孩子家長值得參考）
色彩處理髮生在大腦一個單獨的部分，
而不是與圖像一起。
當我們清醒時，
色彩、形狀和空間位置雖然由大腦不同部分分管，
但這些外部視覺刺激元素被組合起來形成整個圖像傳達給我們感知。
而在夢中，
夢裡的圖像完全由內部刺激而成，
這些獨立的情感刺激可以分別產生夢裡圖像的色彩、形狀和空間位置，
再由這些獨立但相關的情感刺激共同組成夢的圖像。
關注夢中圖像的色彩，結合其形狀和空間位置，
可能會揭示很多潛在的信息。
Over the last 50 years or so there has been a small, but notable, degree of research into the human and animal response to color . The impact of this research in the field of 「color psychology」 is primarily seen today in the influence it has had in the field of advertising, food packaging, art, style, decorating and such. Much of the research indicated that color illumination evokes a common physiological response in human subjects, an automatic response that is below our level of awareness. Color illumination has been shown to affect the autonomic nervous system directly , as well as the brains electrical response , responses that change with color across the spectrum. Blue, for example, calms the parasympathetic branch, while red excites the sympathetic branch, causing decreases and increases respectively in heartbeat and respiration. The brains response to red is that of alerting and arousal, whereas the response to blue is that of relaxation.
There is a part of our brain called the limbic system, which plays a role in alerting us to danger and initiating fight, flight or freeze response. This system performs its function by assigning emotions to all the sensory input it receives, which would naturally include color. Early laboratory work revealed some of the common human emotional associations likely assigned by this system. Red stimulation corresponds to the experience of being disrupted, attracted to the outer world, inciting activity, aggression, excitation and emotionally determined action. Green correspond to withdrawal from the outer world and retreat to ones own center, to a condition of meditation and exact fulfillment of the task. A 3-year study on room color and its effect on learning with children showed that yellow, yellow-green, orange and light blue increased learning while white, black and brown caused a decrease in learning; and orange improved social behavior.
Color appears to have meaningful symbolic associations with waking life as does other dream imagery. It appears to combine (or condense) with dream imagery, to add emotional content to complete the final composite image. This notion has some biological support, since color processing occurs in a separate part of the brain than the processing of imagery. When we are awake the entire image is reconstructed from the external visual stimuli, and although color, shape and spatial placement might be processed in different parts of the brain, the final composite is combined to match the original sensory source. When dreaming, however, the dream image is based totally on internal stimuli, so a dream image (its color and shape and spatial placement) might result from separate but associated emotional stimuli. Paying attention to the color of a dream image, as well as its shape and identity, may reveal important information that would be lost if we ignored the color.
比如夢境A中，戴紅帽子的女人角色扮演傳達的意思是「我們出去玩」、「我覺得自己活力四射」，展現了強烈的生命力和活力，渴望盡情地擁抱生活。夢主醒來後表示，這樣的情緒和情境對她來說已恍如隔世，許久未曾體驗，在現實中，她處處為人著想，壓抑了自己的社會生活和慾望。請注意，夢的後面她們摔了下去，是常見的現實生活和壓抑情緒的隱喻。
而夢境B中，死死咬住木頭的狗是一種角色扮演，如果放開木頭，會淹死；棕色是最能引起夢主共鳴的含義是「對家庭、家庭或個人根源的關心」。據夢主透露，這個夢確實可以對應到一個她試圖支持的家庭成員。她擔心，如果她「放手」而不是「緊緊抓住」這個家庭成員，那個人就會離開，她就會淹沒在情感的洪流中。棕色增加了對家庭成員的關心的元素，這與害怕和被緊緊抓住有關。
夢境C中並沒有明確的形象，而只有顏色，四原色代表了一種完整的狀態，而藍色在這裡表達的是想要重新融入，成為整體。藍色傳達給夢主的信息是「我需要休息、和平和療養的機會。」 而這個夢發生在急需假期情緒產生的第一天，夢主承認療養確實是他現在真正需要的。藍色確實傳達了他為了重建一個穩定的狀態所需要的東西——一個休息和恢復的機會。
In Dreamland A, for example, the role play of a woman in a red hat conveys "Let"s go out and play" and "I feel energetic", exhibiting a strong sense of vitality and a desire to live life to the fullest. When the dreamer woke up, she said that such emotions and situations had not been experienced for a long time. In reality, she had suppressed her social life and desires， to take care of a personal situation. Note that the action in the dream of sinking into the ground, or disappearing below, is a common metaphor or motif for suppression.
In dream B, the dog that bites the wood is a role-play that, if released, will drown; brown most resonates with the dreamer"s meaning of "concern for the family, family or personal roots." According to the dreamer, the dream does correspond to a family member she is trying to support. She feared that if she "let go" rather than "hold on" to the family member, the person would leave and she would be overwhelmed by the torrent of emotion. Brown adds an element of concern to family members, which is associated with fear and clenching.
Dream C does not have a clear image, but only the color, the four primary colors represent a complete state, and blue is expressed here is to re-integrate into the whole. Blue"s message to the dreamer is, "I need rest, peace and a chance to recuperate." "the dream occurred on the first day of the much-needed holiday mood, and the dreamer admitted that recuperation was indeed what he really needed right now. Blue does convey what he needs to rebuild a stable status-a chance to rest and recover.
