Magnetic storms
Moderate levels of geomagnetic activity are forecasted for February 20-22. Those sensitive to geomagnetic shifts might experience heightened aggression, decreased self-esteem and confidence, disrupted sleep, vision and hearing impairments, speech and cognitive difficulties, increased sensitivity to electromagnetic radiation, dizziness, nausea, loss of balance, and exacerbation of chronic illnesses.
Scientists are anticipating a significant solar storm event on February 23, which is expected to culminate in a severe geomagnetic storm on Earth come February 24.
Individuals prone to reacting to such cosmic events are advised to brace themselves and take measures to weather the storm period. During geomagnetic storms, reduced productivity, increased fatigue and weakness, weakened immunity, headaches, irritability, and decreased work efficiency may be observed.
