I think I got it. First I tried some combinations in Esperanto, and was very close to a nice result of "vibrating light," but the available vowels didn't help me get the suffixes right.

So I tried something different. Taking the letters I and V to stand for the Roman numeral four, I arrived at this:

aim4blur

Meaning, "point your attention towards things unclear," the unstated next action being, "shoot."
