Subject: Magnetic Pole Shift
Hello,
Has anyone read "The Orion Prophecy" by Geryl and Ratinckx? And
perhaps "The Mayan Prophecies" by Gilbert and Cotterell? A lot has
been discussed throughout various forums about the magnetic poles
shifting. Also many of you have been keeping close tabs on the
geological events and solar dynamics. The following article just came
across my desk and I'm astounded at what the scientists are presently
concluding. I tried accessing the archives but you have to sign up so
pinpointing the exact article is a no-go.
After a little research on the net, I've compiled here various
sources for those interested in this topic. There is some crossing of
perspectives from the more scientific view over into the spiritual
side as well....
It sure is amazing =))

MAGNETIC POLE SHIFT
UK Sunday Times - Environment editor
12/1/03
"The north Pole is on the move. Scientists have found large holes in
the Earth's magnetic field, suggesting that the north and south poles
are preparing to REVERSE POSITIONS. A period of chaos could be
approaching, when compasses no longer point north, migrating animals
take the wrong direction and satelites are burnt up by solar
radiation. The holes lie over the South Atlantic and the Arctic. The
changes were revealed after detailed data from the Danish Orsted
satellite was analysed. Results were compared with data from earlier
satellites. The speed of the change has surprised scientists. Nils
Olsen, of the Centre for Planetary Science in Denmark, one of several
centres analysing the data, said the Earth's core appeared to be
undergoing dramatic changes. He added: "This could be the state in
which the Earth's geodynamo operates before reversing."
The geodynamo is the way the magnetic field is generated by currents
of molten iron flowing around a solid core. Sometimes giant vortices
form in the liquid metal and they can change or even reverse the
magnetic fields above them. Olsen's team believes vortices have
formed beneath the north Pole and south Atlantic. If they become
powerful enough they could reverse all the currents, causing the
north and south poles to switch places.
Dr Andy Jackson, a specialist in geomagnetism at Leeds University UK,
said a change was long overdue:"Such flips normally happen every
500,00 years, but it has now been 750,000 years since the last one".
The change could affect both humans and wildlife. The magnetosphere
gives vital protection against searing solar radiation that would
otherwise sterilise Earth. Although the magnetic field would not
disappear altogether, it might weaken while the poles switched,
resulting in a surge of radiations that could cause cancers, reduce
crops, and confuse migrating animals from whales to pigeons. For
scientists the big question is not whether but when the changeover
will happen. Some say it could be soon while others say it could be
anytime in the next 1,000 years".

Found in the Sunday, December 29th edition of the Salt Lake Tribune:
"mayan doomsday"
"KENSINGTON, Australia -- There are only 10 years left before the
world ends. That's if you follow the ancient Mayan calendar, which is
considered one of the most accurate ever and mysteriously ends on a
date that scientists say corresponds to December 21, 2012, on the
western calendar.
As a result, many people believe the world will end on that date
and one person who is preparing for the worst is Australian-based
doomsday researcher Robert Bast. He believes the ancient Mayans had
the ability to scientifically predict a major cataclysmic event that
will destroy Earth. The smart money is on a polar ice shift, but Bast
says a magnetic pole shift may also cause the equivalent of a nuclear
war.
Bast plans to move to a secret mountaintop in West Africa, which,
according to his research, is the safest spot in the world."

Magnetic measures indicate Earth rolled suddenly long ago
January 21, 2000, Friday
By RANDOLPH E. SCHMID
"Suddenly, long ago, something changed the Earth's weight
distribution, causing the planet to roll slightly before slowly
returning to normal, say a pair of scientists studying underwater
volcanoes. They're not sure just what happened 84 million years ago,
but they have collected evidence they believe shows the planet
shifted like an out-of-balance ball, relocating the poles and moving
the location of Washington to the tropics."

"In 1958 Charles Hapgood suggested in his book The Earth's Shifting
Crust that the Earth's crust had undergone repeated
displacements....crustal shift was made possible by a layer of liquid
rock situated about 100 miles beneath the surface of the planet. A
pole shift would thus displace the Earth's crust in around the inner
mantle, resulting in crustal rock's being exposed to magnetic fields
of a different direction."
