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...
