I am kind of curious as to why flight attendants will always dim the lights during air plane take-off and during landing. Could it be for security reasons, power conservation, flight control, or power consumption? What exactly is the reason for such??

@ogbenishyna As I said it is a safety measure.
It is done to ensure that your eyes are adjusted to the gloom enough to see the floor lights leading you to safety along the aisle in the event of a crash or emergency evacuation. If the cabin lights were on, but then went out, your eyes would need a while to adjust to the lower light

Because they are creating ambience, known as calming effect to anyone that is anxious on the fight.
