I had a dream that my fiance and I broke up, and I ended up dating someone who looked like her, but felt sad that it wasn't her. Ended up calling her on the phone but she wouldn't get back in relationship with me. Felt utterly hearbroken. And then I either woke up(and promptly fell back asleep) or the dream shifted. The next dream was something about driving(can't remember details). Had to to three more dreams that I can't remember afterwords. The last had something to do with X3. :haha:

In defense of the color test - given that this is a generalized version. I took the Luscher Color Test as part of a college class several years back.

The person administering the test knew nothing about me and informed me based on color selection that...

1. I had recently ended a long term commitment with a girlfriend or fiance

2. I was frustrated by a family situation that i felt i had no control of, and color placement suggested that it had more to do with a divorce or a death in the family over some petty problem

3. I was excited about a new endeavor that had begun for me as recently as a week ago.

there were about a dozen points to it all the way down to my preference toward artistic things right up to the type of woman i was most attracted to it was all very very specific.

1. I had just ended it with a girlfriend of 3 years

2. my parents were in the middle of a bitter divorce

3. I had switched majors and enrolled in an aviation program just a week or two before taking the color test.

while this hocus pocus internet version is HIGHLY generalized - the actual psychological examination is frighteningly accurate.

EDIT:

personally, i think the mind is an extremely potent and powerful thing that we don't even begin to understand even in this age.

dreams are more than just subconscious entertainment - though sometimes thats all they are. - but i maintain that a lot of the time, dreams contain the keys to our loves, lusts, desires and goals and say more about who we are than we might think.

Umm I'd say you feel a bit insecure about your relationship :D and that you love her MUCH. Well maybe this MUCH(I swear subsim only allows that tall)


:D Kids in you

Umm have you been having a pressing matter that you think is quite urgent that you need to solve quickly? Anyway it looked like you have the capability to deal with the problem.

I usually lose in my dream(I attribute that to low self esteem) except when I get pissed then somehow I'm able to think even in dream and take control LOL.

oopeeen youur Eyyyeeesss!

The so-called Lüscher-Farbtest is not unknown in psychology, though rarely used in institutions and settings needing to take care for methodics, because as fas as I know there is little statistical work done to verify it's validity. However, it gets used by some therapists not working in har-core clinical contexts, but more ion the advisory, councelling field, and in the job assessment setting. I used it myself several times, and for reasons of curiosity many of us students back then did: we experimented, like students do. :D Surprisingly I found it to have a very high hit quota.

Lüscher has chnaged the test several times in an attempt to reduce it to the very basic needs, he reduced the number of colour cards and the number of steps that were needed to do. So, several versions of the Lüscher-Test are in circulation. I prefer the one where in four trials four colours must be sorted in sequence of preference. There are shorter and longer test versions.

The general problem I have with diagnostic tests (this or methodologically tight ones) is that they just label a status, but do not describe a process by which to move on. They can also be faked, intentionally or with the subject not beign aware, since they base on the intellect to chose the answer to questions. A demand by the tester that the subject should act spontane, does not change that.

I do not comment the computer-version of the test shown on page one, since I am suspicious to computerised versions of originally material, real-worl tests, in principal. I imagine the day when you go to an automat like to a banking robot, and you enter your chip card and get asked for your colour preferences and the damn thing next tells you who you are (or what it thinks you should be like), and that you should do this or that. THX-1138, the movie, on my mind.

In offense (:DL) of the color test, what you described there could be done using the techniques of cold reading (something that 'psychics' use to gain insight in a person). I would be a lot more impressed if the person giving you the test never met you or observed you, and gave independently accurate results just from the colors you chose, that were validated before you were informed of the results (ie we got the answers from you before you knew the results).

I will also add that memory is a very flawed thing that tends not to be anywhere near as accurate as commonly thought, and that you may have colored this memory (different meaning) based on your beliefs and pre/post-conceptions. That this test was not quite as accurate as you now remember it being.

Sure dreams probably do carry a lot of subconscious stuff. But most of it is fairly obvious, and I think far less symbolic then people make it out to be. I still heartily disagree with the general attempts to translate supposed symbols from dreams into meaning. From what I have personally studied of dreams though, I think a lot of dreams are just noise.

I took that colour "test" and I tried very hard to take it seriously.

But the results were bogus.

At best they were ambiguous and could apply to anyone
At worst they were actually the direct opposite of my life
On the average they were not applicable.

I can't believe that a free five-minute two-question psychological test found on the Internets Tubes could be so wrong. :har::har::har::har:

But it was amusing to take. :yep:

you will have 7 years of feast
and 7 years of famine,
then you will have 7 more years...

:haha:

So you're going off to Egypt then . . . . not actually the perfect time you missed many hundreds of years LOL.

Funny one.

...bill's in the mail.:D

I always dream of tornadoes, wierd ones. Usually they'll be several. Once I dreamed one was inside my office warehouse chasing me. It came into my office and spun me around. I dream about them every week. Stange I often see them in homes I grew up as a kid. Usual stuff, trying to get into a hiding spot with my family, but they always get us.

Never been scared of them and have been in at least 4 that I saw them. My daughters teacher was killed in one in Stoneville NC tornado and several have been around the NC area.

When I had my horsefarm years ago one came and tore all my outbuildings, killed about 5 cows and took out the barn roof I was in why I dove in a empty horse stall. I even got on the local news.

I ain't got a basement, but because of these dreams I ordered and installed a storm cabinet in the garage,,,not that you could ever get in it with all my wifes crap in it now.
