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...
