Earth's magnetic field follows several cyclical patterns. Its field strength rises and falls every 24 hours. It also cycles monthly in phase with the tides. It apparently also reverses its direction 180 degrees every so many hundreds of thousands of years. It has been shown that this reversal has caused the extinction of at least one organism, radiolaria, again emphasizing the impact of the magnetic field upon life forms.¹³

Our entire existence is based on the interaction of a great number of different types of wave-form phenomena. Virtually everything in existence would appear to be cyclic, oscillating between extremes. Wave-form phenomena are seen at all levels from the subatomic to the macroscopic.

When sets of waves interact they produce an interference pattern much like that of a hologram. A living organism, including a human, oscillates. An oscillator vibrating at different frequencies from other oscillators can, over time, get locked into phase through rhythm entrainment. It then will resonate. Our reality is constructed by our brain as it interprets the differences, or interference patterns, in all of the various electromagnetic and sound waves which are constantly being perceived by the totality of our bodily sensing devices.¹⁴

Systems theory recognizes the rhythmic patterns present at all levels. Atoms are patterns of probability waves; molecules are oscillating; and all organisms are multidimensional, interdependent patterns of fluctuations constantly undergoing various cycles. The planet also has its rhythms and cycles as it both spins and moves around the sun.¹⁵...Our reality is a creation of the brain as it translates and integrates the many types of oscillating vibratory patterns picked up by our senses.¹⁶

Life has proliferated in every conceivable direction by adapting to all possible locales. The limits have been set by all physical forces operating on the surface of our planet.

Every animal's behavior is heavily influenced by the sum total of all bombarding, interacting, outside, natural physical events acting upon it and perturbing its intelligence. In higher life forms there is a constant interplay between consciousness and its exercise of free agency and the competing external events that are continuously nudging the organism in many different directions. Any organism's effective intelligence is not static but varies over a period of hours, days, weeks, months and years, depending upon environmental conditions, built-in biorhythms and other competing physical forces. Any life form and its resultant intelligence reflects the sum total of all existing physical forces that have acted upon it, not only from planet Earth, but from the rest of the universe as well.
