Violet is the highest of the visible color wavelength. The violet
flame is said to be the transmuting force that naturally converts
harmful effects to pleasant & good ones.

Normally, people are most perceptive to the color green (which is why
it is commonly used in night vision goggles). In the color spectrum,
green is in the middle:
RED ORANGE YELLOW GREEN BLUE INDIGO VIOLET

A lot of occultists have an affinity for violet and indigo. My entire
workspace is lit up by indigo lights, and I always lay violet towels
in the corner for my cat to sleep on.

The mental state which you refer to, where the images seem to come to
you, is a trance-like state called dissociation. It is more commonly
referred to as "day-dreaming", but you don't actually go into REM or
Delta sleep states. In a controlled state of dissociation, the brain
is not functioning as it normally would (certain parts are shut down,
others activate). The effects of this state vary to the degree and
intensity of the various parts of the brain that are affected. The
frontal lobe will often times pick up random messages generated by the
chaotic actifity (ectopy), and in a rush try and decypher them. The
reason why you have somewhat lucid control over it is that you're
still conscious, and active thought will influence the way the random
messages are interpreted.
