A blinking light usually indicates that the controller needs to be recharged. Plug it in using a USB cable and let it juice up.
My controller blinks when it's searching for a Bluetooth connection. Try resetting the controller by pressing the small reset button on the back near the L2 shoulder button for about 5 seconds.
Sometimes it blinks when the controller firmware needs an update. Connect it to your PS4 or PS5 and check for any system updates.
