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...
