How often, lost in conjectures about the meaning of this or that dream, we turn to the help of recognized interpreters, and in their writings we try to find answers to our questions. Being guides to the world of the unknown, they lift the veil of the future for us and help us comprehend the present. This article will help us figure out what, according to the compilers of dream books, means paint that has become part of the plot of night dreams.
Mr. Miller's opinions
We will open our review with an essay belonging to one of the most authoritative and recognized interpreters of dreams - the American psychiatrist Gustav Miller, who became famous at the beginning of the 20th century for creating a wonderful dream book that has not lost its popularity to this day. In it, this image is given a double assessment, depending on many circumstances of what he saw. For example, if the dreamer dreamed that a fabric or some kind of ready-made clothes was being dyed in his presence, then the color used plays an important role. If it is red, golden or blue, then luck awaits ahead, while black or whitepromise trouble. But, according to the same dream book, painting the walls of a newly built house with paint means quick and complete success in all endeavors, regardless of the color chosen.
Strange as it may seem, but the visions in which the paintings appear, also created with paints, evoked a very negative reaction from Mr. Miller. So, contemplation of pictures in a dream, in his opinion, portends deception on the part of close friends or relatives. At the same time, if a woman dreamed that she herself was busy creating a painting, this means that her husband or lover (and possibly both at once - everything can be expected from men) is preparing to change her in the meanest way.
Again about the awl in the bag
Mr. Miller's opinion about the positive meaning of the plot associated with painting the house is not shared by the compilers of the Gypsy Dream Book, which is also quite popular with readers. Over the past years, it has taken leading positions in the ranking of publications of this kind, which is undoubtedly a great honor for the authors.
In their dream book, the interpretation of paint has a very peculiar character. So, applying it with a brush to any surface, whether it be a wall of a house or something else, means the dreamer's desire to hide something from others. Perhaps his conscience is burdened by an unseemly act, the publicity of which can damage his reputation and adversely affect his future fate.
At the same time, the plot in which someone they know paints, in their opinion, indicates thatit is this person who has his skeleton in the closet, which no one should know about. But, as stated in the dream book, to paint with paints, that is, to create a work of art with them, means that soon all the secret will become clear, and the awl that they are trying to hide in the bag will certainly come out.
What are the aristocrats talking about?
An extraordinary ability to perceive colors is demonstrated by many interpreters. In most cases, the interpretations they cite are made dependent on the slightest shades of color of the images seen. So, according to the compilers of the Noble Dream Book, red paint indicates mental imbalance, while pale blue or soft green speak of inner peace and harmony of feelings.
Very unfavorable night visions, colored in purple, violet and dark blue tones. Nothing good can be expected from them, and the gentlemen of the nobles, after their visit, are preparing for all sorts of troubles. It is noteworthy that, according to the same dream book, black paint is far from always a gloomy omen. So, in combination with yellow, she speaks of the dreamer's unusually high intelligence and his ability to be guided by common sense, and not by emotions.
A few equally curious remarks
It is worth noting another discovery presented to the world by the authors of the dream book: green paint in combination with yellow tones is a harbinger of disease. Note that this applies exclusively to its sharp, flashy shades, while soft and gentletones of green accompany the spiritual harmony of the dreamer, as mentioned above.
In a positive way, the authors also interpret dreams in which familiar images suddenly change their color. For example, the sky suddenly turns green and the grass turns red. Such metamorphoses should not be frightened. According to the compilers of the Noble Dream Book, the colors that have changed places in our minds portend good luck and a favorable outcome of the work begun. In general, they say, those who are visited by colored dreams can be envied, because they have an artistic mindset, combined with an allegorical vision of the world, which undoubtedly makes life brighter and richer.
Through the pages of a dream book for family people
The theme of colors in the dream book is also very thoroughly covered, the compilers of which call it the “Newest Family”. This name allows us to hope to draw from it a lot of interesting information. And indeed, from the very first pages, the reader learns that a very bad omen is a dream in which he sees his clothes stained with paint. At the same time, it doesn’t matter what color it was - in any case, in reality, he risks becoming a victim of slander and false slander. Obviously, some ill-wishers planned to compromise him by smearing his honest name with mud.
It is curious that the authors of the "Newest Family Dream Book" do not consider white paint a good sign. In this they disagree with most of their colleagues. In their view, whiteness is not a symbol of purity and purity, as is commonly believed, butthe personification of emptiness. Based on this interpretation, they build all the predictions related to the future life of a dreamer who saw the world in immaculate white colors - loneliness, mental and physical dissatisfaction, as well as a futile search for solutions to pressing problems.
What and what color was painted in a dream?
Everyone who is interested in secret signs that contain night visions will be curious to know that even such a seemingly simple and mundane story as painting a newly built or renovated house can have many different meanings. At the same time, it is important not only what paint was chosen, but also what part of the house was covered with it.
For example, the famous Austrian psychiatrist Sigmund Freud wrote that everyone who had a chance to paint the floor in a dream can be congratulated: in reality they will have a bright and rich intimate life (at least, it appears from the essay en titled by his name). At the same time, according to the "Women's Dream Book", painting a certain dark surface with white paint means waking up to get involved in some dubious enterprise, fraught not only with large financial losses, but also undermining business reputation.
Paint the doors but don't get your hands dirty
Many authors agree that painting doors in a dream is a very good omen, promising rich profits in real life. It can be obtained thanks to a successfully concluded deal, a promotion, or an inheritance that has fallen out of nowhere. There is only onean extremely important caveat: the paint should be applied from the outside of the door, in order to lure good luck wandering somewhere nearby. If you paint from the inside, then you can provoke the departure of the well-being that already lives in the house.
It is not known whether the ancient Egyptian queen Cleopatra had a chance to pick up a paint brush, but in the dream book, en titled by her name, it is said that a person who, doing painting in a dream, got his hands dirty, in real life is clearly trying to embellish himself in the eyes surrounding. Not feeling the proper measure, he runs the risk of being in a ridiculous position and thereby getting the opposite of the desired result. It should be noted that the ruler of the Upper and Lower Nile herself always knew how to present herself from the most favorable side.
Beware of mixing colors
Another very extraordinary woman, but this time our contemporary - an American interpreter and medium, hiding under the pseudonym of Miss Hasse, also told the world interesting information on a topic of interest to us. In the dream book she compiled, paints, or rather, night dreams with their participation, are considered from various angles. In particular, it is reported that by mixing them on a palette or simply squeezing them out of tubes and randomly smearing them where necessary, the dreamer betrays his intention to undertake some kind of intrigue or at least seduce someone.
Whether the venerable lady was guided by her own experience or came to such a conclusion on the basis of a survey, is unknown. It is not possible to check ita statement, since all schemers and seducers, as a rule, are secretive and not prone to revelations.
A look from the depths of time
In the dream book, the cover of which is decorated with the name of the medieval alchemist, soothsayer and warlock Michel de Nostradamus, there are extremely interesting facts about the various colors seen by people in their night dreams. At the same time, the ancient author reveals an amazing awareness of various types of modern dyes. Back in the 16th century, he foresaw and indicated in his essay that jars with acrylic or finishing paint that appeared in a dream can bring great love to real life, and filled with oil can bring rich profit. The master spoke with praise about bright watercolors, which, in his opinion, bring satisfaction with life and the joy of well-being.
Troubles will pass - joy will prevail
But at the same time, referring to those who happened to use hair dye in a dream, that is, mostly to women, the omniscient seer wrote that she was a harbinger of imminent and unexpected troubles, such as family quarrels, he alth problems and even passionate, but, alas, unrequited love. But he immediately added that all these trials should be accepted resignedly, since they will turn out to be fleeting and will soon give way to the usual course of life: the husband, as before, will bestow his love, the ailments will pass, and that self-satisfied handsome man who treacherously broke the lady’s heart will finally serenades under her window.
Don't talk too much - don'thave to cry
However, this dream also has its pitfalls, one of which may be the image of hair dye spilled in a dream. Such a plot twist foreshadows a woman in serious trouble caused by the publicity of certain circumstances related to her personal life, or rather, with that side of her that is carefully hidden from her husband, but very colorfully signs in a circle of friends. Perhaps one of them, driven by envy, will not hesitate to tell her husband about her adventures and thereby satisfy her petty and vile little soul.
