Yeah, I do have a different take on it Nicole.

Do whatever your teachers tell you to but,

The purple is probably related to a gentle release of phosphenes deep inside your eyes. They are commonly found to present the colors purple and blue.

It's one of those things that you are supposed to ignore during meditation practice, otherwise, you are looking at the pretty purple lights instead of meditating.

Same boat. Every once in a while my vision will turn purple, or I'll see a blur/blob of purple for a short bit.

That makes sense as well on a logical side.

We can easily get confused in meditation with random tid bits of sudden focus without even realizing it.

According to Deepak Chopra (speaking on seeing colors in meditation) ; "...while colors might be pretty to look at, they are merely the result of the refocusing of perception..."

But then again, one can easily slip down the rabbithole of occult correspondences and psychological archetypes, depending on the nature of your private reality-tunnel...

Hjello,

I should have spotted this thread before I posted about it yesterday, but I can totally relate your experience. I've seen it since about 2005 in natural half asleep states, falling asleep, or getting a back rub from my wife.

For years now I have viewed the color purple/violet while first waking up, in a half asleep state. Yesterday, II tried listening to a video on past life regression. Well, not long into it I started seeing this same purple with my eyes closed, I also felt a tickling sensation, but a "good" tickling sensation go over the front of my head and down my temple a little bit, "it really felt nice."

Really good to hear others are experiencing this as well. Also, it makes its own shapes and the deeper I stare into it, "even with my eyes closed," the more active it gets and changes shapes frequently, matter of fact I think it's always changing. I've even seen what I thought were faces in it for just a second. I have been reading "Journey of Souls," by Michael Newton and decided to try to relax myself since I haven't found out where to get this done yet.

When I was a child I would see different shapes, sizes, colors, when I closed my eyes sometimes, but never this purple flame, this actually started out of the blue one morning upon awakening in 2005 or 2006, I just woke up opened my eyes and had this purple/violet hue that was fading away and lasted for about 5-7 seconds. Since then I've seen it while half asleep or awakening, but sometimes I can see it as I'm drifting off to sleep. This evening was the first time I've seen it come up while trying to relax and let myself go.
