Observations dating back to 1957 are used to show that there are two distinct physical states of the heliosphere. From 1957-1970 the diurnal anisotropy consisted of the azimuthal component only. This period is defined as the regime of the east-west anisotropy. The period 1971-1979 is characterized by the appearance of a radial anisotropy which attained a maximum amplitude in 1976, when the solar activity was minimum. It is suggested that there is an inverse correlation between the amplitude of the radial anisotropy and solar activity. The physical state of the heliosphere is very stable during the regime of east-west anisotropy and extremely dynamic during the radial anisotropy regime. It is suggested that the heliosphere switches from one physical state to another following the onset of the solar polar field reversal.
