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...
