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...
