I was recently rereading the section of Liber Kaos concerning this and came across the part where it says that each magician sees the colour of magick differently. Now Carroll says each magician is supposed to discover this for him or herself but doesn't say how. Is the colour octarine the color one is most easily able to visualize or what?

Read Terry Pratchett's awesome novel and first tale in the discworld saga "The Color of Magic" for his take on octarine.After all Mr.Pratchett was the one to coin the term and as P.J.C. says "Many a useful thing is said in jest."

My octarine is a pale blue light, tinged with violet. I use it for a lot of stuff, including rewiring my brain when it's not working right, and when trying to talk to the aliens.

I just see it as a kinda purply-greeny-dark-bluey northern lights kinda colour. I kinda just went with what I imagined it to look like.

God, Liber Kaos, tho' that takes me back...*goes all nostalgic*
