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...
