Even in ancient times, the chronicles of Greece, Egypt, the Roman Empire reported heavenly signs, when strange motionless and / or moving pictures and even quite meaningful signs, letters, numbers appeared in the sky.
It is known that one of these signs promised another military victory to Julius Caesar, which happened later.
In the Middle Ages, many prints and paintings by artists captured for us some of these phenomena, such as the "sign" over Nuremberg on April 14, 1561.
The Danish flag, known as the Dannebrog, is probably one of the oldest national flags in the world. According to legend, his story is the story of a sign.
It begins with the time when the Danish crusaders under the leadership of King Valdemar II the Victor fought against the pagan Estonians.
The struggle continued until the Estonians called all their warriors to arms on St. Vitus Day, June 15, 1219.
The Danes were confused by the brutal and unexpected attack, but suddenly, like a sign of the Lord, a giant blood-red flag with a white cross descended from heaven.
The retreating Danish soldiers caught the flag and shouted "Forward to victory under the sign of the cross!" won the battle. There is no definite evidence that the Dannebrog was born this early; his first image appeared in "Wapenboek Gelre" ("Geldern coat of arms" - Dutch coat of arms, universal, painted, one of the most authoritative medieval heralds) in the second half of the XIV century.

But maybe Dannebrog was originally (XII century) used as a banner in the Crusades? The most plausible theory is that Dannebrog was used in the same way as flags for territories on the borders of the Holy Roman Empire, most of which depict a white cross on red or red on white. However, not a single legend, as you know, just appears, it is always preceded by something.
Do not think that all heavenly signs are the lot of medieval observers. Our contemporaries, people who lived in the enlightened XX century, were also witnesses of the "heavenly messages". and living today.
One of them is the founder of modern cosmonautics K. E. Tsiolkovsky. In his diaries, he once wrote: “This is what happened to me on May 31, 1928, in the evening, at eight o'clock.
After reading or doing some other work, I went out to freshen up on the covered glassed-in balcony. He faced the balcony. It was facing northwest. In this direction I looked at the sunset.
It hadn't gone down yet, and it was quite light. The weather was semi-cloudy and the sun was obscured by clouds. Almost at the very horizon, I saw, without any flaws, as if printed, horizontally arranged side by side three letters: CHAU.
It is clear that they are composed of clouds and were at a distance of 20-30 versts (because they are close to the horizon). While I was looking at them, they changed their shape.
I was very surprised by the correctness of the letters, but what does “CHOW” mean? It doesn't make sense in any language I know. A minute later I entered the room to write down the date and the word itself, as it was written in the clouds.
It immediately occurred to me to mistake the letters for Latin ones. Then I read "PARADISE". It already made sense. The word was pretty vulgar, but what to do? Take what they give. Under the cloud word was something like a slab or a tomb (I didn't pay attention).
I understood it all this way: after death - the end of all our torments, that is, what I proved in "Monism of the Universe". Thus, speaking in a high syllable, the sky itself confirmed my assumptions.
In essence, these are clouds. But what forces gave them a form that has a definite and appropriate meaning? For seventy years I have never suffered from hallucinations, I have never drunk wine, and I have never taken any stimulants (I have not even smoked).
The projection light could not produce these images in bright daylight, moreover, at a great distance, these images would not be visible and distorted …
If someone wanted to play a trick at home, they would write “PARADISE” in Russian … When I returned to the balcony, the word was gone.
My room is on the second floor, and I didn't have time to call anyone, especially since at first I saw only a curiosity here, since I had read nonsense in Russian. "CHOW" in English means "ray" and reads "ray". One might think, though tensely, that the sunset of life (death) gives the light (ray) of knowledge."
This strange phenomenon, observed by Tsiolkovsky, unexpectedly, after half a century, received documentary confirmation. On December 2, 1990, Kazakhstan meteorologists recorded cloudiness images transmitted from the American meteorological satellite on a telegraph.
To their amazement, over the Caspian Sea, in a break in the clouds, giant letters shone. And the situation with their reading arose exactly the same as that described by Tsiolkovsky: there were three letters, and when viewed from the equator, the Latin "JVL" were read, from the side of the pole - Russian "GLS".
Having decided that someone's equipment, either Kazakh or American, was junk, the meteorologists contacted their neighbors in Uzbekistan. They confirmed that their pictures show the same picture.
But, it turns out, they sinned in vain on the American satellite: the same picture appeared on the images obtained from the Soviet meteor-3 meteorological satellite! Only this time it was not possible to give any reasonable interpretation to these three letters.
However, meteorologists recalled that a year before, on October 15, 1989, a whole set of signs and numbers appeared in the sky over Salsk (Rostov region), which many researchers tried to decipher.
They also recalled that on October 24, 1990 at 21:15, four light squares with flames inside appeared over the Kokichev farm and the nearby Krasnodonetskaya station. The squares were, as it were, projected by rays in the sky and formed a black cross.
Then, next to the cross, the numbers "2001" appeared, separated by a small burning circle in the middle, and the signs "?!" According to some observers, the size of the signs exceeded 100 m!
It's time to ask the same question with an exclamation mark: what would that mean? By the way, squares and question marks were also observed in the sky over Salsk.
In general, 1990 was unique in this respect. In different places of the then Soviet Union, signs and figures, including human, mathematical numbers and symbols, appeared in the sky. It was like some giant used the sky and clouds as a slate.
Well, it would be somehow understandable if these “heavenly signs” were timed to coincide with 1991, the year of the putsch, although the previous year was very turbulent in the history of the Soviet country.
Another thing is strange: since someone who uses the "heavenly screen" for his exercises knows letters and numbers well, write down specifically what you want or what you warn against, and do not make pointless puzzles! It is not for nothing that one of the ufologists called these "endings of the world" in 1990 "a heavenly poltergeist."
Taking into account the case already cited, the subsequent phenomena in their temporal sequence demonstrate a clear tendency for the "pictures" to become more complex. On the morning of April 3, three rectangles appeared over the Krasnodar Porcelain Factory, which then transformed into three semicircles, three dots and three dotted lines.
At 19:30 on June 20, 1990, a woman from Odessa E. Chudina saw from the window of her apartment a gray oval cloud, which then split in two. A woman with a crown on her head and in a long golden dress (!) Appeared in the resulting opening, sitting in an armchair. The "session" lasted 15 minutes.
At 1 am on July 9, a resident of the village of Davydovo in the Orekhovo-Zuevsky District of the Moscow Region V. Burovaya noticed an unusual cloud in the sky, which turned into a kind of screen.
Drawings began to appear on it from right to left: a house without a roof with three luminous windows (or maybe a schoolbag?), Something that looked like a skull, incomprehensible signs resembling hieroglyphs, the body of a man with a cylinder on his head.
His eyes suddenly opened, and from them bright beams shot down to the ground. Then the rays disappeared, the pupils narrowed into lines and disappeared, and then the figure also disappeared. The entire "session" lasted eight minutes.
According to the newspaper "Sovetskaya Moldova", an even more impressive picture was observed in early October 1990 by the passengers of the bus going to the village of Rybitsa.
An orange female figure the size of half a firmament appeared right in the cloudless sky! The impression was as if the woman leaned back freely in the chair. The outlines of her profile, lush flowing hair, high breasts were clearly visible.
Her legs were covered with a flowing cloth. This picture was observed for half an hour, then it disappeared, leaving a blurred yellow spot on the sky.
You can, of course, write off such phantasmagorias to the inventions of journalists, but in the sky above the strip of the German-Russian front in 1914, a huge female figure was observed by thousands of German and Russian soldiers!
A rumor immediately spread that it was a vision of the Virgin Mary, blessing the soldiers for victory (one wonders, which ones?). Well, while Soviet literature, when it came to this case, “explained”: “Virgin Mary” appeared with the help of a powerful projection lamp!
It is amazing, but a similar explanation of the "heavenly movie" was given in the book by V. Fulk, dedicated to atmospheric phenomena and published in … be caused in two ways: artificial and natural. Artificially, they are caused with the help of certain mirrors and tools made according to the secret laws of science, which is called catoptrika (the science of mirrors and the reflection of light). However, as a rule, these phenomena occur naturally, when the air, due to its properties, suddenly begins to reflect everything that is and is happening on the Earth."
If we take for granted Fulk's explanation that the sky reflects what is happening on earth, then how to explain the occurrence of the word "Allah" in Arabic script in the sky over Tajikistan on March 11, 2009?! The inscription was seen by thousands of people in the evening at about 8 pm local time in the territory of central and southern Tajikistan for half an hour. Many have captured it on cameras of cameras and mobile phones.
“I raised my head and saw a luminous inscription similar to Arabic script appear among the clouds. At first, the outlines were blurry, then they became more accurate and bright, silver, blue and pink, and then I saw the word "Allah" in the sky, - said an eyewitness.
Of course, clouds can sometimes fold into rather bizarre pictures, and if the imagination is connected, then you can see anything at all. But the color of the inscription ?! Noctilucent clouds - okay, pink - okay too (although there was no sunset yet to color the clouds pink). But blue clouds ?!
A similar inscription was seen in Baku at about the same years. At least two friends of your humble servant, who did not know each other, said that one saw the inscription in the Novkhanov area, the other in the area of the Fatmai village.
The history of mankind knows a lot of signs in the sky. And they are actually most often incomprehensible. As for why an unknown someone does not “say” directly what he wants to convey to people, then who said that this “someone” thinks the same way as we do?
Perhaps he has a much better opinion of our mental faculties and believes that we should understand his simple hints.
