Our understanding of pole shifts and geomagnetic excursions suggests that partial flips occur roughly every 6,500 years, causing dramatic changes on Earth. Some theories connect these events to ancient stories like the Adam and Eve narrative, describing a 90-degree flip followed by a return to normalcy after six days. Scientific evidence also shows correlations between geomagnetic pole excursions and mass extinction events, such as the one linked to the Younger Dryas climate catastrophe around 1
