On the night of August 1st, 2022, in Cocoyoc, Morelos, an unusual aerial phenomenon captured my full attention, etching itself into my memory with remarkable clarity. Between 10:45 and 11:00 PM, I witnessed a circular light cutting swiftly across the sky, enveloped by a cloud-like haze that blurred its edges and defied any simple explanation.
This mysterious orb moved silently from south to north at an unearthly speed, its glow steady and devoid of the pulsating light typical of airplanes. The air was clear, free of clouds, yet this luminous circle was surrounded by a soft aura—sometimes appearing white, sometimes tinged with a faint greenish hue. The object’s bright, steady light stood out starkly against the dark canvas of the night.
As it raced overhead, the silence was profound. There was no hum of an engine or the blinking red navigation lights of conventional aircraft. Shortly after the sighting, a plane passed in the opposite direction, slow and noisy, a stark contrast to what I had just seen. This orb was not a falling star; its steady course, consistent height, and peculiar color ruled out meteors or commonplace aerial objects.
The sighting lasted approximately five to seven seconds, abruptly ending as the object slipped behind a large wall at the Hotel Hacienda Cocoyoc, cutting off my view. Despite the brevity, the encounter was vivid and surreal.
I can confidently say no substances influenced my perception—this was a sober, firsthand experience of something truly out of the ordinary. The night air, the quiet speed, the translucent glow wrapped in a misty halo—together they wove a compelling tapestry of the unknown.
This fleeting visitor from the depths of the skies left me pondering the mysteries that still slip past our everyday view, hidden in the folds of night. What was this glowing circle with its ghostly mist, darting silently above Cocoyoc? A secret of the heavens, or something more? The enigma remains, beckoning to those who are willing to watch, listen, and believe.
