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...
