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...
