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...
