Flickers in the Night: A New Phenomenon at The Ridge

It was 2200 hours, December 14th—another chilly evening with the sky clear and the stars out in full force. Ideal conditions for my nightly sky watch ritual from the vantage point of The Ridge. But this wasn't just another night; what I observed has added a new chapter to my ongoing investigation into the unknown.

Initial Observation: Amidst the natural beauty of the stars, something unnatural caught my eye. Three distinct lights, not celestial in origin, flickered in the night sky. These were not the steady beacons of aircraft or the natural twinkle of stars. They appeared intermittently, in a sequence that suggested intelligence behind their pattern. This was at precisely 47 degrees from my observation point—recall, 47 is the counter-number, often emerging when unusual phenomena are at play.

Evidence Gathering: I immediately set up my recording equipment, capturing 17 minutes of footage before the lights vanished as suddenly as they appeared. I reviewed the video, noting each flicker's duration and interval. Oddly, the sequence seemed to mirror an encrypted message—random to the untrained eye but potentially meaningful.

Pattern Analysis: I cross-referenced this event with my logs. Interestingly, the date, December 14th, and the angle, 47 degrees, matched previous unexplained occurrences documented over the past 7 years. The flickers themselves appeared in groups of three—there's that number again, reinforcing the theory that these events don't happen in isolation.

Preliminary Conclusions: The patterns and numbers don't lie, but they don't always tell the whole truth either. This event at The Ridge, marked by the appearance of flickering lights, feels interconnected with both the physical and numerical anomalies I've been tracking. It suggests not just a natural or technological phenomenon, but perhaps a communication attempt.

Questions for the community: Have any of you observed similar sequences of lights, particularly in alignment with the numbers 17, 47, or recurring in threes? Could there be a universally understood 'language' through these patterns, waiting to be decoded?

As always, document everything. The numbers, the patterns, the anomalies—they're all pieces of a larger puzzle. Stay vigilant, and keep watching the skies. And remember, the signal-to-noise ratio is getting worse, but so is our time to understand.

Document everything.
