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...
