Triangle craft with blinking multicolored lights

Driving home from Valley Center on Old castle to Camino del Rey . Spotted what I thought was a constellation 6 points of light until it broke into two distinct sets of 3 with one set accelerating at a rapid rate and disappearing. I then came around a few more corners as I realize the one triangle is closer then I originally thought. I then came around a corner to a straight part of the road and realized the object was right in my field of vision to my west . I slow and almost run off the road and stop. Mesmerizing the 3 points of light as they strobed. I am dublmbfounded at this point. I continue to watch as the pattern becomes almost rhythmic. I notice the trees around look as if they are moving with a wierd haze like magnetic energy around a triangle shape silhouette against the night sky. I could swear at one point I could see through it and then it appeared almost holographic . It was eerily silent yet a slight buzzing in a low frequency. As soon as it started to "morph" or cloak , the 3 lights at the ends of the triangle stopped. It was very slowly moving S to N in direction and was slowly rotating its axis. The 3 lights at the tips were bright white and suddenly went dim. Almost simultaneously a larger center light illuminated and at that brief flash of light I could see all the detail in the craft. It was clearly metallic and smooth , dark graphite and every angle visible . The edges came to a clearly visible edge and at one point I noticed a slightly domed top while rotating . At some point what I originally thought would be the tail of the craft due to it's orientation in flight now was at the bottom with the forward tip now pointed straight up and the whole what I perceived to be the underside visible for a brief second when the bright white light in the center illuminated. It then went completely like a hologram and fucking disappeared right before my eyes. I could not wrap my my mind around what I witnessed then ,nor can I to this day. I went through all kinds of emotions . I even cried afterwards when I pulled to the gas station about a mile and a half to Hwy 76 . I sat between the McDonald's and gas station drawing the object writing down my account and repeating over and over to myself ,""WTF, WTF,WTF". I did that for 4 hours and to be honest , about 3 days straight trying to understand what I witnessed. I at one point that night remember my cell phone was right next to me and a camera or video never even crossed my mind throughout the whole encounter. My dog was very concerned that evening I remember as well. All homes and other objects like stars were visible throughout the encounter. Wind was calm and conditions clear. The Super Blood Moon eclipse took place the next early morning about 7 hours after my encounter . The attached rendering I drew out is not the original but as clear and detailed as the night I saw it. I will never forget the details even the background . It's engrained in my brain. I have drawn more than 20 different depictions and they are all the same just from different distance perspectives.
