Monochrome dream architecture . It's like some people dream more in sounds ,some dream more in movement, some more in patterns . I dream more in Black and White . So, welcome in guys, i present you the Dark Side of the Moon .

The Philosophy of Black and White

How Darkness, Light and Absorbed Colours shape Vision , Spirit and Dream. 

For years this essay waited inside me ,ever since 2017, sitting in my photography classroom (classes attended at kallitechnio , the art café near my home ), discovering how shadows could speak more truthfully than colour. I didn't yet understand that black and white was not just a style. It was a language. Away of seeing reality stripped of noise, filtered down to essence. 

Only now i do understand why I have always felt drawn to it , why even my dreams arrive in black and white , like old films playing in the unconscious. The muted palette is not an accident . It is a message. And finally the words come.

Darkness as the Original State of the Universe 

Before colour , before sound , before memory , there was darkness. 

Physics tell us that darkness not the absence of something . It's the natural state of space. 

Light appears only when energy bursts into motion . Colour is an aftereffect of light interacting with matter. 

This means something profound :

• Darkness is the rule

• Light is the exception

•Colour is the momentary echo of energy

When i dream in Black and White i feel I'm seeing the world closer to its original blueprint.  Without distraction. Without the illusion of colour that the waking mind constantly constructs. Pure form . Pure symbol . Pure meaning.

Dreams in monochrome are not empty , they are honest.

The Spiritual Dimension of Shadow

Many traditions once understood darkness not as fear , but as fertility . the womb of cosmos . ( I dreamt on Sunday, November the 16th , i felt i was pregnant and i was seeking for a doctor for him to listen to the heartbeat of what i was even pregnant with ....i know the idea is there , I'm fertile with ideas i must translate )  So. every creation begins unseen , unformed , in the quiet dark.

In meditation , the eyes close . In grief we retreat . In transformation , we descend into shadow before emerging into the light. Darkness is not hostile rather than the birthplace of clarity. 

When i dream in black and white , i often wake up with the sense that the dream came from a deeper , older part of myself. the images  feel carved from stone , not painted in colour . As if the unconscious communicates in the original language of existence.

Light , Colour and what the Eye cannot See

Physics offer a startling perspective :

Objects do not possess colour . They absorb certain wavelengths and reject others. what we call "blue"  , "red" or "yellow" is not the object itself . It is what the object refuses to absorb . 

Black absorbs everything .

White rejects everything.

Colour is the tension between the two.

This absorption and reflection principle mirrors something profound in human perception . Just as objects absorbs certain wavelengths, I personally find that people absorb or emit emotional wavelengths ( also ,I'm on a personal research-journey on experiencing wearing more all black , or all white outfits ). Back to what i see...Their aura subtle , intuitive , energetic appears to me like a kind of spiritual "colour", one not always visible to the physical eye , but deeply felt. Some people feel like they absorb light : calm, grounding , deep . Others radiate outward expansive , bright and energetic. Some are soft greys , gentle , quiet , steady. 

The physics of colour becomes a metaphor for the physics of the soul . 

The Dark Side of the Moon and the Illusion of Shadow

We speak of the "dark side of the moon " , but physics correct us : 

there is no permanently dark side . Every surface of the moon receives light at some point . It simply rotates differently from our perspective . What appears dark is often only unseen from where we stand . 

This applies to people ,too. We call certain parts of them "dark" simply because we cannot see them , not because they lack light. When i sense someone's aura , it often feels like I'm glimpsing the side of them that is illuminated even if they can't see it themselves .Seeing someone's inner colours is a reminder that "darkness" is nothing but misperception.

This hints that death might be an illusion !

Dreams in Black and White

A Return to the Essential.

My Monochrome dreams have always puzzled me . Why does my inner world strip itself of colour ?

I dream very logical , the mind simplifies to the essentials. It turns off the noise  . It removes reflected light. It stops interpreting wavelengths . It shows me raw shapes of meaning. I think this answer came slowly , spiritually and scientifically.  

In dreams i trust myself completely . When i wake up from a dream i trust intuition , which shows me all the colours hidden . Dreaming in black and white is very precious , like touching the skeleton of reality . Shadow become symbols . Light becomes guidance . Everything unnecessary disappears . My dreams speak in the same visual vocabulary that the universe used at its beginning :contrast , depth , stillness, truth . 

Auras and Absorbed Colours

Am I a physician of the Soul ?   Just to put things straight i don't always see colours . When i look at a person , i often sense their aura  not as bright "rainbow colours" , but as a tone , a vibration , almost like an emotional wavelength. That's why i like some people we look nothing alike . It is that we are on the same wavelength , maybe.  I've come to understand this all through the physics of colour. 

Just as objects absorb some light , people absorb emotional wavelengths . Some people absorb heaviness, Some absorb hope . Some reflect joy so strongly that it brightness the room . We call these impressions "intuition" , but they may be closer to perception than we admit. Auras are not the neon colours drawn in spiritual books , they are energetic signatures , the invisible contrast between who someone really is and what they reflect outward . Just like black and white photography , sensing someone's aura shows the truth beneath the visible surface . 

*I have recently attended eurythmy classes and had internship in one of those Waldorf schools . Other than flow  , intuition is also natural  being taught and trained  for example by sensing what object's  colour is lying beneath in  black and white pictures.

Why Black and White feels like Home 

Black and White reveal essence , simplify truth and remove essence. they return thew world to it's original geometry , the architecture beneath the illusion. It's not the light i think we notice when we get out of the womb , that might scare us. It's us separating from warmth and wanting to connect with what feels warm and safe again in this world . 

In the same way that colour blinds us to form , emotional noise blinds us to the essence of people . Absorbed colours literal or symbolic tell us who someone is .

Do you think the Devil as someone who wears red and God as  someone who wears all white ? Why that ?

Also, who are the real blind people on earth?
