It was there again last night.
In research for my original post came across the topic of Ethereal Music or Sounds. Does anyone else hear ethereal sounds or music? I have heard it for years late at night but did not notice it or it's ethereal quality until the evening of 9/11/01.
So I was lying in bed worrying about what was going to happen next about 1:30 am on the evening of 9/11/01 and dang, there was that sound again! Only this time it was louder. That was when it struck me, it sounded..........ethereal...........almost like angels singing or calling. It is a beautiful sound very far off in the distance. It sounds like a suspended note, not mechanical, not animal. The best I can describe it is as rubbing a finger along the rim of a half full wine glass, a suspended high pitch note which continues on and on. It is quite beautiful sounding and cannot be heard all the time. Since 9/11/01 I listen for it regularly and it can only be heard very late at night when the windows are open.I have heard it in the Spring, Summer and Fall but not all the time. Even last night the sound would go on for several minutes and subside and not be heard again.
It is not an animal sound although it could be a voice on suspended note. It is not mechanical, not air condiditoning or any other mechanical sound. Tranquil and quite as can be out there late at night. I thought it could be road traffic off in a distance but it is not as I cannot hear this during the day when I listen. I thought it could be radar as there is an air base about 10 miles away but radar does not make a sound. This cannot be radar. And it isn't a train either as I do hear a train off in the distance late at night and this sound is very unlike a train sound.And it isn't a plane either, not at all.
The sound is really quite beautiful and not threatening at all. I have a problem where sometimes will wake up in the middle of the night and not be able to fall back to sleep for a while and in the Summer have taken to sitting by the window just enjoying the ethereal sound and watching the moonlit shadows outside. It is really quite pleasant and have seen foxes, opposums, bunnies and skunks. On occasion I hear an owl or mockingbird sing, but this sound is not like any of these. Just a clear suspended higher pitch note off in the distance............like a choir or angel calling. And it is not tinitus or ringing in the ear. I know what tinitus or ringing in the ear is,and have that also but this is louder and not at all the same. And it is definitely not any insect or insects!
So, this is my ethereal sounds or music post and I hope to not bore you with it. Does any else hear such sounds late at night? Listen carefully and quietly when the window is open in the summertime and maybe you too will hear this beautiful sound.
