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...
