Might I advise some of you to read a book called
Astrogenetics by Maurice M. Cotterell. I' m not a firm believer of all he writes but he has some interesting points of view on certain things. His theories about geomagnetic fields are all but flawless but recently scientists have come to aknowledge some of his findings, some of which had been based on theories made earlier by Einstein before his
Theory of Relativity got published.
I' ll try to explain some of it:
The sun consists of 2 separate magnetic fields; one that stretches from it' s northpole to the southpole, like on Earth; the other consisting out of 4 bubbels around the equatorial field. Like the Earth, the sun turns around it' s axis, one evolution taking 26 days at the sun-equator and 37 days at the pole areas. This is possible due to the hot gaslike plasma of which the sun consists. The difference in movement of these different areas is known as "differential rotation of the magnetic fields of the sun". Cotterell presumes that the sun' s magnetic fields would revert all 18,139 years resulting in a shift in Earth' s gravitational fields also, which comes with movement of the tectonic plates. This has been confirmed after recent research on surfacestones that showed signs of a reversed polarity all at about the same time. (see also Charles Hapgood on this)
According to the Babcock-Leighton model is the winding of these magnetic fields due to differential rotation responsible for sunsurface activity. Sunspots are areas on the sun' s surface that are being crossed by magnetic loops originating from within the sun.
Magnetic activity inside the sun results in the exhaust of charged particles from it' s surface (negative from the nagative fields and vice versa) and are hurled into space like a lawn-sprinkler. These particles are known as solarwind and once they descend into our atmosphere through the Van Allen-belts and they can be seen at the poleareas as "Northernlight" or aurora borealis (not sure about the spelling here).
So when the magnetic field of the sun changes, so will change that of Earth. The magnetosphere (the protective earthmagnetic field that surrounds us) diminishes en more harmfull ionised radiation is allowed to penetrate our atmosphere. This results in genetic mutations by newborns en leads to an increase in newborn deathrate.
The particles of which the solarwind consists reach the Earth and result in magnetic variations in the atmosphere. These variations are the cause of genetic mutations on our DNA on the moment of impregnation. Same variations accord every 260-day solarcycli. Solarradiation has through regulation influence on behaviour caused by these magnetic variations and mutations. Planetconfigurations, and thus the importance of their own magnetic field and particle emmition, can cause variations in personality at the time of impregnation and at points thereafter. Personality is thus decided by astronomic influences; this is also known as solar-astrology.
Every 28 days the Earth is showered by renewed particles from the sun. It has been proven that this has influence on the follikel-stimulating hormone called FHS, that regulates menstruation and fertility. Cotterell suggests that bioregulation of the human organism happens due to solarparticle caused magnetic modulation. Changes in melantonine influence biorythme, changes in oestrogene and progesteron influence fertility. Part of the brain, called epifyse, translates the surrounding magnetic fields and starts altering and producing melatonine, whereas hypofyse and hypothalamus influence the creation and secreding of fertilityhormones. This proces of "magnetic to chemical" is called "electromagnetic transduction". (read also: Hope Simpsonn, Robbin Murray, Janet Harker and Ross Aidey)
I' m not saying I believe all he' s written and that whatever he has written is truth, but it is always nice to start thinking of what might be right and wrong, a "what if" scenario sort to speak. If you' re interested try to get hold of one of his books but skip his god-like alien conspiracies. The man is nuts on that part. Come to think of it, you might not even consider him to be a reliable source of information due to this. Nah, whatever.
He who keeps the old akindled and adds new knowledge is fit to be a teacher.
