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...
