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...
