Full Description of Event/Sighting: While Perseid meteor watching I saw two lights in the eastern sky (to the left/north of constellation Cetus). They caught my eye due to their obvious colour, which differed from the stars around them.
They were flickering and shifting from red, to blue and then to white. They were about as far apart as a loonie coin held at arms length and were pinpoints of light. They were situated relative to each other, one at the 10 o'clock position, and the other at approximately 4 o'clock position.
I was surprised to note that the two points of light then began to rotate, and switched positions gradually, with the 4 o'clock light moving to the 10 o'clock position, and vice versa.
Then, they began move directly apart from the 10 and 4 o'clock positions, but very slowly. The top light began to gradually fade and the bottom light subsequently blinked right out and vanished suddenly.
Approximately 15 minutes later the two lights reappeared, in same relative position to each other, but this time they were located more to the north -- they crept across the sky toward the north star.
When they had moved as far as the Little Dipper they appeared to stop moving. They remained motionless for about a minute and then the top light began to shimmer and shake, flashing blue, red, white colours very brightly.
Three blue streams or rays of light briefly shone out of this 'top' light, and pointed towards the 'bottom' light. After a few seconds the 'bottom' light increased in brightness very rapidly, obviously and impressively, and departed with shocking speed to the west. The top light simply ebbed away and vanished without any apparent motion.
