Blue/Green Light Circling In The Sky Above Riverside South Ottawa Ontario (Searchlight)

Date:  October 24, 2012 and October 25, 2012
Time:  6:15 a.m. and 6:30 a.m.

Hi there, I saw something similar, 2 mornings in a row. The first was the morning of Wednesday October 24, 2012 at 6:15 a.m. in Riverside South, Ottawa. I went outside for a morning walk and I saw a bluish/greenish light circling in the eastern sky. 

My first thought was that it was a spotlight. But as I examined, the light was shinning through the clouds, from up above, and not from below.

It wasn't a plane. The circular path the light "form" was travelling was too small and travelling too fast for it to be a plane, plus the light "form" was too big to be lights from a plane. 

It reminded me of the Northern Lights, the colours were similar and "moved". But I have seen the Northern Lights, and they don't travel in a circle, plus the shape of them is more like waves, and this was more of a circle/oval mass. 

The other observation that stood out to me was when the light "form" would travel across an open patch of sky (no clouds) it would disappear, but reappear as soon as it was behind the clouds. Northern Lights appear when it's a clear sky.  

All of these "logical" thoughts happened so quickly through my head while I kept walking and starring at it. The only other thing I thought of was that it was some sort of "entity". I did not feel frightened or threatened. I'm really curious as to know what it was.

I saw it again the next morning, October 25, 2012 at 6:30 a.m. It was an overcast morning.

The light was not as bright as the morning before, but I could still see it. It was in a similar spot in the sky. By 7:30 a.m., I couldn't see it anymore since the sky was getting brighter with daylight.

I'm happy that I'm not the only one who saw this "thing" in the sky, any thoughts on what it could be?

Additional Information: Update.
A person wrote into the Vike Factor with the explanation as to what the lights were. Below is their report.

I also saw these lights in the south end, they were see-able in the south on Highway 31/bank near the Hindu temple. Also when I went to the Wal-Mart
they were clear in the dark night sky.

It was a spot-light that was geographically near the South Keys Wal-Mart, because the light beams were clear and bright. I still couldn't pin-point the origin of these lights, but it seemed to be closer to this location than any other.

There was 1 or 2 spot lights that were swirling in the sky in circular patterns.
