Bright Light over Mountains

I saw a bright light in the western sky, it was bright white with a halo like appearance around it first thought to be clouds, but stars around this object were seen unobstructed by any clouds.

At first I thought it was a star, but then noticed the light moving in small circles. It was about the size of a typical star but was 100 times brighter. It would go in a small circle and then go back to hovering. After watching this for about 5 minutes the object began to move away further west, the halo began pulsing, and then continued to fly away until it became the size of a pin head in the sky, and then pulsed a few more times and dissipated completely.
