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...
