It seems that there was a really big one in December
NASA - Biggest Full Moon of the Year
I wasn't aware that it looks bigger sometimes - called Perigee Moon
The link explains it

Right now, venus is at 0h 16 43.0s x 5 deg 9' 0.0"
so could quite possibly be Venus,but i know the ISS has been visible for last couple of months

I'm pretty sure its Venus too, think its usually the brightest object we see. You can see sirius "the dog star" too but thats not quite as bright!

its not the ISS that travels very fast, not stationary like a planet/star appears to

Re: bright light
 
It won't be the secret Planet X - that is sneaking in - and is only visible in the Antarctic using infrared
