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...
