I went out to a local country outing that a community was hosting. I had some friends that played a set of music and visual exploration. They have a theme of humanity and its quest to understand our place in the cosmos, among other worlds and possible entities. I was impressed with their presentation and spiritual context of their show. Near the end I had a profound inner meditation that seemed to bring me in tune with my inner atoms and their connection to the cosmos. At one point I felt as the everything became light and a beam/ flash of light captured my experience. They shortly ended their set along with my experience. I then joined my friends for star and meteor gazing. As dawn was nearing, I noticed a bright "star' or light in the sky. In a few seconds, it performed a spiral twist, then disappeared. It reappeared a short distance away and repeated the spiral twist. A few times during the twist, a similar flash of light beamed directly into my vision. My other friends saw the light with twists, but not the intense beam/flash. This continued for several minutes each time disappearing and reappearing with the same spiral twist. A few of my friends have told me about some strange sightings in the past, without me fully believing their stories. I've had a couple other experiences in the past, but this was a far more intriguing display. I described my experience to a friend who told me about this sight to report such events.
