The evolution of the photospheric magnetic-field pattern over eleven solar rotations preceding a minimum of the activity cycle is shown to be characterized by abrupt changes in the dominant geometrical patterns of the field. These changes are associated with the onset and end of a sudden increase in the calculated total energy content of the field, which is otherwise decreasing through the period. The calculated geometrical rearrangements correspond in time to observed restructurings of the corona, the interplanetary field, and the solar rotation pattern.
