The Sun's magnetic field reverses approximately every 11 years, as part of the regular solar cycle that also produces sunspots. This cycle, Solar Cycle 25, was predicted to be a cycle of weak activity, with the magnetic field reversing around 2025 or so. However, solar activity has been much stronger than expected, and it appears that the reversal will occur earlier.
