A magnetic polarity reversal is a change of the earth's magnetic field to the opposite polarity. This has occurred at irregular intervals during geologic time. Polarity reversals can be preserved in sequences of magnetized rocks and compared with standard polarity-change time scales to estimate geologic ages of the rocks.

Some recent investigations have examined how the magnetic field approaches a polarity reversal. Since the magnetic field of the earth is locked into rocks when the rocks first form, it is possible to study how the magnetic field of the earth changes by studying the magnetic field of the rocks.

The position of Earth's magnetic field changes over geologic time. Currently, the north magnetic pole is located near Earth's North Pole, a condition called normal polarity. Periods when the north magnetic pole is located near Earth's South Pole are called reversed polarity.

As the time line at right shows, hundreds of times in our planet's history the polarity of the magnetic shield ensheathing the globe has gone from "normal," our current orientation to the north, to "reversed," and back again.
