Your Saber color and why?

Someone asked this about a week ago and I'll restate the Awnser I gave then. Mine is purple and here's why. ( just my personal thoughts....may not be in alignment with SW canon)
1. In the first two movies blue was good and red was bad. Purple is a combination of the two. Personally , until I feel I have become close to 100 percent good, or 100 percent bad then a combination is what I will use.
2. I read that mace windu used purple due to his practice of a fighting style that used dark side skills but in a light side way. He could do so due to his skill and focus on self control. On my path self control has been one of my few allies and somthing I have always worked on. Serving in the military for 15 years discipline and self control were pounded into my head.
3. I keep my saber in a glass case in my living room sitting on a stand covered in purple velvet. Seeing the saber and the purple velvet is a daily reminder to stay in control of my life. ( I'll post a picture in a moment). It's also to me, a reminder that I'm not perfect and won't ever be, but that doesn't mean I can't use my imperfections in a good way.

Violet and Indigo are the colors that I’ve used in the two lightsabers I’ve made:
Violet Razor: has a Violet blade and light color since it is my understanding that Violet is closer to Blue than Purple. As such, the Violet Razor represented my desire to pursue good rather than evil. But also reveals that, despite my best efforts, I do occasional act out maliciously in fits of rage, ire, and aggression.
And
Soul’s Harbinger: has an Indigo blade and light color since it is my understanding that Indigo is closer to Red than Purple. In that respect, Soul’s Harbinger displays how I have constantly struggled to retain balance within myself and how I have occasionally come so very closely to committing actions that would cause the Kyber Crystal within my Saber to Bleed.
Left Picture is Soul's Harbinger, Right Picture is Violet Razor (haven't inslatted the electronics yet).

I'd have to say Green consular has always seemed the path I'd go down. I'd try to avoid combat unless necessary.

Green, as I am Slytherin (represent!) and was the color held by my favorite Jedi of all time, Qui Gon Jinn, who never failed at following his own inclinations regardless of the wishes of the council...
Purple is quickly becoming a favorite second as to its significance to my future, and of course crimson as an alternative representing my past as I am a bit of a Revan at heart....
As for forms, my form is that of "no form." After months and months of study and practice, I've come to the realization none of them truly fit me. Instead I take from each and work continuously to create my own...

Purple because I have a strong belief that my aura is purple. Also, the amethyst rock and it's benefits are something that I always appreciated. As you can see, even my font is purple.

I'd have to go with green, and form 3. The best way to win a fight is to have avoided one, but if it comes to that, defense until an opening presents itself is preferable in my opinion to full on assault, and I would present the opinion that it is more in line with the teachings of the Jedi.

I prefer pink (hex #ff33cc) because it speaks to me, internally. It's a color of power and playfulness, and it excites me.

I'd be one of those people who couldn't settle on a color. I'm not one for commitment. So, perhaps one day I'd like purple because of how it represents the struggle of light and dark within me; the next day I'd probably go with pink too. That's my preferred aspect color right now. I think if I pulled out a pink blade in a fight, somebody would be thrown off for a few seconds. haha. I would take a lot of pleasure in that.
As for form... I don't know. I quite liked whatever Luke did at the end of Return of the Jedi. Form 0, right? I'm not a fighter at all. If I were to throw a punch, it wouldn't be convincing. I'd have to think my way out of a conflict.

My plastic fantastic is red, but my proper one will likely be green, with a day (hi) and night (lo) intensity setting, just because while red is ideal for night, apparently animals don't see it so well (which makes it less useful to scare them off)) and the lower intensity needed for green means it's not as bad for night vision as the whites and blues. Plus of course it sits neatly in the middle of the visible spectrum so it represents 'balance' and all that.... but also maybe during the day it might mean my eyes can track blade movement with my eyes half shut
