There has been a spike in the power of the earth’s geomagnetic field

Affecting the schumann’s resonance: reaching a 15 month high.

The Spike

The spike was recorded by the Global Coherence Monitoring System from the Heart Math institute:

The Global Coherence Monitoring System has been in operation since 2015 and uses state-of-the-art sensing technology to detect changes in the earth’s magnetic field. They have 6 systems based in

Boulder Creek, California.
Hofuf, Saudi Arabia
Alberta, Canada
Baisogala, Lithuania
Northland Region of New Zealand
Kwazulu Natal, South Africa
Going back for the 15 months I have data for the there have been Schumann Resonances Power lows of 15 and highs of around 360. With the field for the most part sitting between 80 and 200 dependant on the location. In the last 10 days it reached a high of 538.83 in Alberta, Canada and then continued to fluctuate in the successive days, reaching a peak yesterday of 1006.6. Peaks have also been reached in California, Lithuania and New Zealand over this period.

What Caused The Spike?

It is hard to say for certain what has caused this spike, but the geomagnetic field can be influenced by solar activity, the moon’s rotations and interplanetary activity.

What Is The Geomagnetic Field?

The Earth’s geomagnetic field is the magnetic field surrounding the planet that extends from the Earth’s core to outer space, where it comes into contact with solarwinds which are a stream of charged particles emanating from the Sun’s rays.

The geomagnetic field has 2 poles (north and south) which are different from geographic poles and can shift as much as 55 kilometers every year.

The geomagnetic field is vital for our survival and protects the earth’s atmosphere from otherwise catastrophic solar activity which would destroy the earth’s ozone layer.

Many species of animals detect the Earth’s magnetic field and it is used for navigation when migrating. It has also been shown that cows and deer align themselves to the earth’s magnetic field when grazing.

The Difference Between The Geomagnetic Field And The Schumann Resonance

There has been a lot of confusion in recent times (myself being included in this confusion) with the Geomagnetic activity and that of the Schumann’s resonance. The Schumann’s resonance does not fluctuate much, but has 8 different frequencies ranging from 0.5Hz to 45Hz. However the geomagnetic field does fluctuate, this video from Rajie Kablie and Rollin Mccraty of HeartMath clears up some of the misconceptions:
