operation   contrasting valkyrie   
     in the  sixties. the  central    
  intelligence agency "cia" release   
   aerosolized  selatenine  over  a   
  jupiter equinox concert,  creating  
  the largest secret paradigm  shift  
  that the world  has  ever seen.   
  
                                          
 the jupiter equinox* concert  is part of 
 a  festival  in black tickle arranged by 
 a  group called epicenter of love. there 
 is  no   entrance   but   visitors   are 
 expected to  help with maintenance. food 
 and  drink  is shared.  many  bands  are 
 playing over the four day  course of the 
 festival, and the stage is open  between 
 scheduled   concerts.   jupiter equinox, 
 while an unknown act, has  a prestigious 
 timeslot  at eight in the evening on the 
 third  day,  which  is  friday.       
                                          
 eight  is  also  when the plane used  to 
 spread  the   aerosol   lifts  off.   it 
 arrives at the festival about a  quarter 
 past,  sound  masked   by  the  concert. 
 around   when    the   first   wave   of 
 selatenine   must   have   reached   the 
 audience, the song comes to a  tense but 
 quiet  movement,  and  the  lead  singer 
 walks  to  the  front   of  the   stage. 
                                          
 she says, with  a crystalline voice:  "i 
 have something to tell you. i  am not  a 
 human being.  i am not  an  animal  or a 
 plant.  i have  been  sent to  deliver a 
 message to  you. a  message of hope. you 
 are  not  alone.  there are other beings 
 in  the  universe.  there  is  life  out 
 there,  life  that  is  reaching  out  a 
 hand.  and it's time  to take that hand. 
 to reach out toward  that  hand and grab 
 it it. it is time to come  home. you are 
 going  home.   you   are   going  home." 
                                          
 the  singer  stands   there  for  a  few 
 moments, her  hand  raised in  the  air, 
 before  the rest  of the band  kicks  in 
 and  the music  builds to  a  crescendo. 
 the  crowd erupts.  and  then  something 
 else  erupts  as  well.  a  concert-goer 
 describes   it:  "suddenly,   the  music 
 seams  broader,  more  colorful.  i  can 
 somehow  see it,  and  i feel the others 
 seeing it,  and i see  it  through their 
 eyes as  well.  meanwhile  i'm  dancing, 
 and i  can  feel  my body as i've  never 
 done  before,  i am aware  of  each cell 
 and  each  molecule,  all  vibrating  in 
 unison.   and  it's  all  going  faster, 
 building up  to something,  waking  up." 
                                          
 people  start  forming  circles, holding 
 hands  and  dancing.  some  are  crying. 
 some  are laughing. some  are screaming. 
                                          
 and  then -  a flutter -  and  something 
 gives.   a   shockwave    of   reversing 
 polarity   in   the  ether,   and   like 
 butterflies  getting hit  by  a burst of 
 wind,  the  third eye opens for everyone 
 in the audience.  and it becomes a chain 
 reaction, quickly  spreading across  the 
 festival area. within seconds  there  is 
 a   global  blackout.   festival   goers 
 regain  their  memories  around  a  week 
 later,  those  in  the  nearby  town  of 
 black tickle  after   a  few   days,  in 
 montreal for  the  evening, the rest  of 
 america  maybe  an  hour.           
                                          
 and  thus,   the   population  of  earth 
 has  kind  of  left  it's  materialistic 
 baseline,   only   that   most  do   not 
 remember                             it. 
                                          
                                          
  
  * there's an interesting aspect to  
   the  "jupiter equinox"  act.  it   
    seems  there   was  never   any   
  jupiter equinox concerts before or  
  after the one in black tickle. the  
   lead singer  (also  colloquially   
  referred to  as jupiter) seemed to  
  immediately disappear (for a long   
  while she was thought to have been  
   a cia  agent, but a  later  foia   
  release refuted this). for obvious  
  reasons, many were looking for any  
   trace  of  the  band,  but  none   
   were fruitful.                     
                                      
  recently, however, some attention   
  has been drawn to juniper helding,  
  a sixteen year old pop singer from  
   england who  has a  very striking  
   similarity...
