I took a quick glance off the road to get a better look, briefly slowing down as the road was a bit treacherous. After a few seconds, the trees obstructed our view, and a sense of dread settled in as we continued our drive.<\/p>\n<p>Later, we debated what we had seen. My ex claimed it could have been a \u201chouse,\u201d but I was convinced that what we encountered was something unusual. I realize either of us could have been projecting what we wanted to see, but the unease I felt at the memory of that moment made me wish her theory was right.<\/p>\n<p>About a month later, I returned to the summit during the day. I checked maps and found that, while there are smaller houses in the area, their location wouldn&#8217;t align with what I observed. Furthermore, I felt the same sense of dread during my visit.<\/p>\n<h4>And here\u2019s where things get really intriguing\u2026<\/h4>\n<p>On March 7, 2025, around 30 minutes before sunset, I was parked outside a local church, enjoying some fast food and taking in the view. Suddenly, the song that was playing when I first spotted the craft came on my Spotify.<\/p>\n<p>That prompted me to reflect on the experience, which had started to fade from my mind over time. I began to consider some CE5 mental exercises and found myself mentally asking, \u201cDid I really see what I think I saw? Was it just my imagination? If there\u2019s something more, please give me a sign.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>And then, without any warning\u2026<\/p>\n<p>Two faint orbs of light appeared, almost like stars, and seemed to briefly \u201corbit\u201d one another in a counterclockwise direction before vanishing. They were larger than typical stars in perceived size and were spaced about a pinky finger\u2019s width apart if you were to hold your hand out to the sky.<\/p>\n<p>To say I was startled would be an understatement; it made me question everything yet again.<\/p>\n<p>Apologies for the lengthy post. I\u2019m not usually active here, but this has been weighing on me, and I felt compelled to share.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"entry-summary\">\nMy Two Experiences\u2026 Let me keep this brief (though I might ramble a bit).
