You mean you see black as in you're in the dark and/or your eyes are closed?

What exactly are you expecting to happen? What kind of meditation are you practicing? What do you do when you meditate, and whose advice are you taking on your methods? These kinds of things might help answer questions.

When my eyes are closed its black as night and I meditate to get my chakra aligned and in full operation. After to night I dont know much of anything.

So what do you expect? Involuntary visions to come to mind? Do you expect to see as if your eyes are not closed?

Your eyelids block the ambient light, save what filters through such thin membranes of skin. Why would you see something other than black?

You're not doing anything wrong. I normally see black. I meditated for many months before I saw anything beyond black or the occasional flash of colour. Just be patient and enjoy the moment. I know how irritating it is, but if you're sitting there thinking "why am I only seeing blackness?" you're missing the point of meditation. It's to allow thoughts to flow past and relax. As you fall into deeper states of meditation, you should start to see, feel, hear, smell things [it's different for everyone. Some people don't visualize but they get a general sense of things]
