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...
