- UPDATE: I made a mistake in this video. I made another video to correct my mistake: • The Precession Correct...
The Earth's axis is slowly moving. This disrupts our calendar, replaces our North star, and will one day cause astrological signs not to line up with the seasons. And it's all because the earth is not a perfect sphere.
I made a mistake in this video. I made another video to correct my mistake: th-cam.com/video/-QT1rsr9U44/w-d-xo.html
Nancy Lieder was right all along!
it was not first discovered by hipparcus. indian texts like suryasidhantha already covered this 1000 of years before hipparcus
The best evidence is that the Surya Siddhanta was written centuries after Hipparchus, not before: rajarammohanroy.medium.com/s%C5%ABrya-siddh%C4%81nta-was-not-written-over-14-000-years-ago-1591a02a293e
You made several that I know about it, the great year is 25920 years no 26000. This is extremely important to get right, because it relates to shamanic ressonance, 432hz, I will explain to you if you respond and care to hear about it.
😂
That last sarcastic part was awesome!!😂😂😂
He's not being sarcastic, he just loves astrology
You visual representation of everything is just mind-blowing.
Thank god someone finally puts the word "precession" on this calendar thing, instead of saying "the way the earth moves".
half right half wrong, axis precesses in, not stars; so since precession means to go forward, seasons slip backward, stars do not precess forward. Spring season slipped back from March 20 to March 10, the stars of March 10 is not a sphere that moved forward to March 20. Like the electricity books now in school that talks about vacant electron-holes moving backward.
Fun fact:
When Hipparchus
Developed trigonometry, he was one of the first people to find evidence that the planets don’t move in perfect circles and he actually thought that was an error in his theory, and threw it out the window
omg really?
@@user-gf8mw9zd2q
Yes actually
I love the details and the effort you put into it. Great video. You deserve many more subscribers! Good luck!
Indian Vedic scriptures Vedanga jyotisha and surya siddhanta 1400 BCE already mentions it. But just the difference is in the cycle. They mentioned 25,700 year instead of 26,000 year. It also mentions Abhijit will be the new pole star in 14000 AD.
Oh my god I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS! They’re funny, informative and SO well graphically presented!!! Thankyou so so much 🙏🏼✨
I finally understood why there's no correspondence between the star you can see in the sky (zodiac sign) and the time of the year you're in! Thanks!
I’ve believed in astrology for 10 years and I’m trying to abandon it bc I realize it’s been hurting me. This video, made me feel better. Thank you 😌
If only more females would realize this sooner
Yeah it’s upsetting to see how ubiquitous it is, I feel like it seriously needs to stop.
This is a weird comment. Astrology is just the language of the celestial skies. The amount of people who think it's like a religion to believe in as opposed to a tool to illuminate, like a philosophical school of thought, is disturbing.
@@redfullmoon well its often vulnerable people who are driven to superstition. I agree astrology is bullshit, and I am glad I no longer believe in it.
looks like you never truly undestood astrology :(
Haha! Great concept to put you standing at the pole and equator! As always great graphics and script.
the visuals at the beginning helped SO MUCH
There are a few problems with this.
1. The gravitational model has so many problems, it’s difficult to harmonise it even with the moon being where it is or behaving as it does. The wobbel is an assumption, there can be other reasons for the apparent precession. Certainly, things have to be simplified, but is quite a crime of omission. Especially as all statements are made as if ascertained fact, which they aren't at all.
2. At least one star, namely Sirius, seems not to take part in this, which cannot be explained by the cuttent theory.
3. It was not H. who first observed precession. In fact, he didn’t. We know that, bc he gives no measurements by himself. If you read his numbers carefully, you’ll notice, that they correspond to observations made in Mesopotamia and Egypt. Neugebauer sadly declared that the Ancient Babyloninans did not no precession. We today know that this is quite wrong. They did. And so did the Egyptians. They used Sirius, however, that barely moves, precisely bc it’s an exception.
4. Astrology very weak. If you use the Sidereal system, the sun is not in Capricorn at New Year, but in Sagittarius. Only in the Tropical system it’s still in Capricorn.
5. Caesar got his calendar fixed by Egyptians he brought back to Rome
6. Your take on Astrology is embarrassing. I hope you do know a bit more about Astronomy than the nonsense you say about Astrology. Really, even the basis is incorrect and even for those believing in astral determinism (very few do) your statements are off.
1. The gravitational model is solid. I don't know what issues you're talking about.
2. Sirius precesses like all the other stars:
astronomy.stackexchange.com/questions/45442/is-the-claim-that-the-star-sirius-does-not-precess-like-other-stars-true
Yes, I was having some fun with astrology, but my horoscope seems pretty accurate.
This video is amazing. Thank you! The ending had me almost falling off my chair laughing! 😂 I'm using this in an astronomy course I'm teaching thank you!
Why aren't there more videos like this out there. The lack of information I have with the alignment of the Earth's axis and such is killing me!
The most beautiful scientific but also entertaining video I have ever seen. Of course, the exact zodiac prediction at the end also counts.
Best animation I've seen explaining the precession
Just got to your channel. You are making great videos! New subscriber.
Cosmic motions in all their complexity are so ludicrously complicated, I cannot stop wondering how physicists responsible for cosmic probes, rockets and similar stuff get their calculations right most of the time.
If you learn something new, it was a worthwhile day.
This type of content is so underrated
Precession was known about by civilizations long, long before Hipparchus.
Yes.. Just thinking about Göbekli Tepe from 11.500 years ago!!
Yes measured from global Flood 2370bc, at Babylon 1626bc as 6 days in 744 years.
And at Egypt in 1570bc as 6 days in 800 years, where Egyptian calendar inaugurated Year 340 in 2030bc July 17 as Pamenot 1
verifying 3 days in 400 years in Egyptian dates 2030-1630bc; and Adam's 400 of his 2000-2400am (2026-1626bc).
Watching this video was like a fever dream in the best way possible

Hey.. Your videos are great and informative..
But your presentation is what really shines out 🌟🌟🌟
Worth clarifying: the Zodiac he refers to is the Sidereal Zodiac, used mostly in the East by Vedic Astrology rather than Western, though some Astrologers of the West have begun to look at this Zodiac. Most Astrologers in the West refer to the Topical Zodiac, which is Seasonal rather than based on the Constellations (as he mentions!) The Tropical Zodiac is fixed to the solstices and equinoxes and is unchanging with time. This means that Aries, for example is defined by the first 30° of the ecliptic following the vernal equinox, Cancer the first 30° following the Summer Solstice, Libra the first 30° following the Autumnal Equinox, and Capricorn the first 30° following the Winter Solstice. Aside from this, the Zodiacal Signs are 30° of the ecliptic each. The Constellational boundaries we know today, even if they had been the exact same as they were 5000 years ago, would be far different. Virgo is the largest Ecliptic Constellation encompassing almost 14% of the Ecliptic, whereas Scorpius (the Constellation of the Sign Scorpio) is less than 2% (approximately). The constellations were used in ancient times as reference points to the Signs, but they are not the Zodiac itself. The separation between Sidereal and Tropical astrology occurred in the years following the discovery of the precession, and remains in place today. Sidereal and Tropical Astrology both have their benefits in terms of self discovery, but are very different practices.
The last part was the most creative thing i saw this year
This made everything so much easier to understand.. thank you!!
How can it have been discovered by Hipparchus when the ancients encoded the precession into their structures?
The ancients recorded the cycles. Copernuis then Newton gave it a physical explanation (which is wrong but still taught as a fact). I do wonder if and HOW the ancients understood it better than we do. We fudge the math equations out of observations and they still don't work.
This was an amazing animation and explanation thank you
It almost made me cry. All the educations I had 'suffered' from the schools were the torture compare to this vid.
It is amazing. Thank you Thank you Thank you.
Woa that horoscope was remarkably accurate
Well done - best explanation I've ever heard for axis shift and calendar timing.
This is also the reason for the Sahara desert. The Sahara desert changes from a desert to a marsh wetland depending on the wobble of the earth. That means the Sierra desert will be green again someday. Unfortunately none of us will be alive to see it. Perhaps in generations to come and man hasn’t destroyed himself humans will see the desert become green again.
WTF this video is genius!
Okay back to that assignment for my geodesy master's degree now...
The Egyptians found out about the Precession of the Equinoxes, and Americans still think earth is flat.

There are only a tiny few that are Flat Earth club members. They seem to occupy a disproportionate presence on YT, but I've never met a flat earth club member.
So it's not "Americans", but a very small international cluster. And even at that, most Flat Earth club members really believe in Flat Earth, it's just an act.
Americans love teaching people to defy anyone or everyone because that's what they think defines freedom. They think they need enforced American law to force people to obey (so preventing chaos) when in fact USA is laws giving people rights to be chaotic

But Polaris isn't very far away.
I have a hard copy star chart from 1900. And in the textbook there is a short comment on the declination of Polaris is increasing. In 1900 Polaris was 1.15° from north. Today Polaris 0.73° from true north.
Well the chart is now visibly different. Polaris is closer, and in 2050 it'll be at its minimum of 0.5°.
This video is very informative. Thank you for your efforts.
Simply outstanding.. Hats off sir

Peace be with you.
Great and informative video that is easy to understand and not patronizing because I am not an Astronomer. Amusing. Enough to keep my interest.
great content brother!! It doesnt make any sense that this video has only 60k views.
The earth has been " wobbling " on its axis for millennia. It's just so slow and occurs over the millennia, we never notice it. Seasonal changes happen +/- and that's it. Spin a top on the floor, it wobbles as it slows too. Same thing.
0:27 I think the ancient Egyptians discovered this long before HIPPARCHUS.
That claim has been made, but there's no hard evidence to support it: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axial_precession#Ancient_Egyptians
@@ItsJustAstronomical The Egyptians encoded the dimensions of the earth into the dimensions of the pyramids. They could not have done so without knowing of the earths procession. The great pyramid is almost perfectly aligned to true north. There are so many clues that mainstream archaeologists ignore that show the ancients knew exactly what we know today if not more.
Very interesting. I came here bc something is off. Either our calendar, or our calculations, or the precession is changing speed. I have been been becoming aware of it over a year now. Today, Jan.2, 2021, it is darker, at an earlier time, than it was on Dec.21. Guaranteed. I'd like to know what's going on. :) peace
The rate of precession is changing. They don't have an explanation and I wouldn't take whatever they pull out of their butts as to why seriously. The earth doesn't wobble because the entire solar system is doing it.
Yes i observe the sun set more north in summer and more south in winter. Plus the big dipper is visible when i open my door. In summer it appears at night handle up n dipper down in beginning of night and rotates handle to left and levels out late night. In winter it is appearing level handle on left. And rotates handle down late at night.
great video....love the plug at the end...subscribed without hesitation
Yeah that was pretty funny tbf
One quick correction to your video. At 2:19 you say “In a year the SUN moves through all the signs of the zodiac.” I think you meant to say in a year the EARTH moves through all of the signs of the zodiac. The sun stays fixed in your animation.
You make outstanding videos by the way. Keep up the good work!
Actually he is right, because what he mean is the SUN moves through all the signs of the zodiac from our point of view here on EARTH.
The Sun is in Capricorn from January 19 to February 15 around about now, astronomically speaking.
So, if you were born in January, chances are you'll be a Sagittarius.
Astrology will tell you differently though.
Hes right... Moving through the signs of the zodiac is done by the SUN as viewed from earth. We cannot see the earth's motion through the night sky because we are necessarily on the earth. We can only see other objects going through the sky.
Polaris is currently only about 0.75 degrees from the north celestial pole. It is the 49th brightest star in the sky. It turns out that having a pole star with this level of quality is rare. I did a lot of math on this and found that the probability of having a better pole star is only about 2% for the north pole or 4% for either pole. The details of these numbers follow.
I defined the quality of a pole star as 1 / (rank * angle from pole * angle from pole).
So the quality of Polaris is 1 / (49 * 0.75° * 0.75°) = 1 / (49 * 0.013 * 0.013) = 119.1
I got the probability of having a better pole star using the following code. It simulates random placement of 5000 stars for each simulated planet. It counts what portion of the planets have a pole star with better quality than Polaris. You can run this code in the inspector console in a desktop web browser. You can control various simulation parameters by changing the last line. Currently it outputs the probability of having a better pole star at either pole.
const NUM_STARS_LIMIT = 5000; // The number of stars visible to the naked eye is about 5000.
const POLARIS_DISTANCE_FROM_POLE_DEGREES = 0.75;
const POLARIS_RANK = 49;
function getProbabilityBetterThanPolaris(num_rounds, include_both_poles, quality_function) {
// num_rounds: the number of rounds to run to get the probability. Go at least 10000 for accuracy.
// include_both_poles: boolean
// if true, stars near either pole will be considered
// if false, stars near only one pole will be considered even though stars in both hemispheres are included in the ranking of stars
// quality_function: (rank, radius_squared) => Number
// This function is called for each star.
// The higher the number, the better the star is as a pole star.
const polaris_quality = quality_function(POLARIS_RANK, Math.pow(POLARIS_DISTANCE_FROM_POLE_DEGREES * Math.PI / 180, 2));
let num_rounds_with_better_pole_star_than_polaris = 0;
for(let round_index = 0; round_index < num_rounds; round_index++) {
let found_better_pole_star = false;

distance_squared = (x*x) + (y*y) + (z*z);
}
// is now guaranteed to be in the unit sphere.
// Also, x, y, and z are guaranteed to be nonzero.
if(include_both_poles || z > 0) {
const quality = quality_function(star_index + 1, ((x * x) + (y * y)) / (z * z));

Very interesting, thank you!
That wobble also effect temperature change as there is a wobble with the path of that oval shape around the sun.
The Axial Precession was discovered by pre-dynastic Egyptians. The Pyramid Code is a 5 part documentary with an indigenous Egyptian Hakim Arywan, a historian & wisdom keeper explains about the Dark Age/Golden Age 26K year cycle. The documentary also introduces the Dogon people who were also speaking of it and Sirius long before we had telescopes to prove it.

Perfect explanation! Thank you!
Absolutely phenomenal video! Besides the correction on why axial precession happens (which you already corrected) you forgot that due to axial precession, the constellations are already about a month off, scorpio isn't around November (it was around 1 ad) now it is around december... Meaning around 15,000 ad geminis will be born around January, yes you probably read the wrong horoscope your entire life... Astrology is complete nonsense.
You don't know what you're talking about
My favorite video yet! Maybe that's because I love charts and graphics... and good humor.
oh well my charts look better than that. Mine are actually volvelles as in charts that slide or rotate as paper tools of math calculating. Mine are free, you can make a video, I would like that. One chart shows how every day number 1 such as 1 and 11 and 21 of Noah's 360-day is Chinese WU for 1, and Mayan kin 1 as imix (Mayan kin 11 has another name), and there is no 21 because Mayans count by 20 not by 30. I saw a documentary once 20 years ago that said Sothic being 1460 years is half-Sothic in 730 years. Not so because 720 is 180-day, and 720 is another 180-day to be 360 in 1440, and then the 5 days for 365 leap days requires 20 years so you cannot just cut it in half, and Genesis knows this because the stretched Genesis uses 740 and 720 years for 185 and 180 leap days. Peleg they have die in year 740 as 2+135+130+134+Peleg 339.

All already discovered in Vedic Astrology
Procession is about 1° / 72 years.... But that's not why the Julian and Gregorian calendars are inaccurate. They're just not accurate. The year (neither sidereal nor tropical) is not evenly divisible by whole days. Either solar noon shifts every day, or we add/subtract days every few odd years, irrespective of the zodiac.
It was known about by civilizations before Hipparchus. Just imagine Göbekli Tepe from 11.500 years ago!!

this is best 3D Astrology part! thanks!
I do like the video. Smart, fun. Thanx!
Another really interesting presentation. The general public is certainly very ignorant about all of this. I was somewhat as well!
It was first introduced in the book Surya Siddhanta.. Which a lot don't know about.
It's been wobbling and will continue to wobble. No big woop here
I have been monitoring the position of "Sun" in sky changing for over 10 years, from same location @ 48.75 N Lat. I made a video called "Earth's Axis Shift", as 2008 had this same phenomena (corollary with 11 year Solar Minimum) of Sunlight out of position, best seen at Summer Solstice. I removed it when I realized Earth is not a Planet, it's a static Plane covered in a Torus Field. Now it's 2019 and to calculate position of Sun, I use photo of shadow line at high noon, and very level surface line (like Eaves) with a virtual Protractor overlay, to acquire Angle A. I then use the Aaron Dover Astrolabe apkdownloadforandroid.com/com.aarondover.yinyangapp/ to get Sun Latitude line, combined with my "GPS" Location and Google Earth Ruler for the Longitude distance from You to the Sun Latitude (Side B). Any Right Angle Trigonometry Calculator will do the hard stuff, here www.carbidedepot.com/formulas-trigright.asp you'll be entering Angle A, and Side B.
What I've discovered is that the height (Side A) of "Sun" is always changing now (last couple years for sure), and it's not even consistent year after year, finding itself at different altitudes, on the same day different year.
Today: May 30 2019: I tried to do a calculation because I know (lived here 45 yrs) the "Sun" is too far North, and Flat Earth Astrolabe is giving a strange reading of Sun latitude, already at 24.0 degrees North and it's not even June 21 Summer Solstice yet, so my results will be off. The Photo's I've taken of high noon shadow line on May 30 2018 and May 30 2019 differ by 8 degrees (using protractor), which is proof the "Sun" angle has changed. The FE Astrolabe is max at 24 degrees North, so there's no way to calculate "Sun" height at Summer Solstice now, as it won't be accurate ?
I have videos showing that the Sun is a Local Star Phenomena (likely Capacitor), and Moon is also local and controlling "Sun" Position and Luminosity as Technology (think Square Wave Frequency Modulator). So don't worry about Earth tipping over, it's not a Planet or Spinning. The era of Disaster (Dead-Star) is upon us, and the weakening of the Torus Fields (AKA Magnetopause) determines our fate.
Well, I do not know if everyone will love your video... but did!
4.35 "...and Americans are celebrating Christmas in the middle of Summer". Yet the photo is of Cronulla, Sydney, Australia :)
Good vid, but please point out how the 26 mile equatorial bulge is only one-thousandth the size of the Earth's circumference, so the Earth is just as spherical as a billiard ball.
It isn't as spherical as that. It does not spin like a homogeneous sphere would, and this is easily tested by measuring the moment of inertia. That measurement clearly indicates how the earth wobbles in its axis, because it doesn't spin like a homogeneous sphere would. It tells us that mass is distributed differently as varying locations on earth
You want a better example of what you think the earth is like? Look at jupiter
The ending was amazing, but I do have a question. Is astrology accurate? Now of course I don't mean accurate in predicting your future, is it accurate in saying that I am a sagitarius because I was born between november 23 and December 21? If the earths position relative to the stars moves ever so slightly shouldn't that date change at least a day during a human lifetime? Not to mention, when were the zodiac dates decided? As far as I know they could've been set in stone 400 years ago and by this point we are truly facing Sagittarius in January or something.
You're totally right. They were set a long time ago and they are slightly off from when they were originally set. This article explains more: www.livescience.com/4667-astrological-sign.html

Great video sir..
Thanks for this video, very informative. 👍👍👍
Just leaving out the fact that the earths "wobbling" does only affect the stars and not the other planets. Does that mean that the whole system "wobbles" after the earth?
The change in the axis affects the position of both the stars and planets. And each planet's axis can change too.
The earth doesn't wobble but yes the entire solar system is actually precessing. Some of the stars are rising with us too. This is impossible in the standard model theory.
very good, well explained.
Plz update Christmas Date from 25th December 2023 to 15th January 2024
Thank you for the Astro video😄😄
Everything matters, has a purpose, has a meaning. I was thinking today about how the earth axis rotated every so 20,000 years and how it relates to zodiacs. Now 5 mins ago I was thinking wtf is a precession asked Siri bc of thinking thoughts and intuition and curious. Now I’m here watching this video about precession of the earth. Follow your intuition curiosity and intellect!!!
tremendous diagramatic explanation
Thank you for your video!
That kind of explained my question:
Is this means that along with precession, seasons are also slightly shifting possition around the sun? If so, then after some thousands of years we would see stars that now could be seen in winter, we will see them in summer? Im not sure if anyone would understand my question.
That's exactly right. The seasons will happen when the earth is at a different point along its orbit. So in 13,000 years, the earth will be on the opposite side of the Sun during summer. So stars that were visible in the winter will be visible in the summer in 13,000 years.
@@ItsJustAstronomical Thank you!
The seasons are not shifting. The model predicts it, but the historical evidence contradicts it. Which means it's wrong.
At 2:15, how can you be sure that it’s Capricorn? Obviously you cannot see the constellation behind the sun due to the sun’s light. Wouldn’t it be better to use the cancer sign instead since you can see and verify the cancer constellation at night?
Awesome video and great explanation. Thanks. Just what I was searching for to piss off my friends who believe in zodiac signs.
Awesome! Please piss them off for me!
The concept of the zodiac is a representation based partly on the constellations and partly on the symbolic importance of a twelve-fold cycle of archetypal energies which form the complete circle of the zodiac. The zodiac signs are not to be confused with the constellations that share their names and they are known to astrologers as the tropical zodiac to distinguish them from the sidereal backdrop of constellations. In this way, astrologers can be sure of a common starting point for chart calculation and planetary movements
1 degree of a 26,000-year precession "arc" is actually 72.3 years. 72.3 * 360 = 26,028.
Nothing new--in AD 325 at the 1st Ecumenical Council of the Orthodox Church of the Roman Empire, the Spring Equinox fell on 25 March; during the discussions about the formula for calculating the date of Holy Pascha each year, the Holy Fathers agreed on "the first Sunday after the first full moon after the Spring Equinox" at which point the Pope of Alexandria pointed out that the sun had crossed the equator that year on 21 March, so that phrase was added to the kanon, and ever since that has been the date of the Spring Equinox. No doubt at some point in the future it will have to be revised once again.
The Earth has always wobbled.
Never have seen the sun so low in the sky
. No matter what season
Check out Hamlet's Mill and Graham Hancock. The precessional has been recorded and known for much, much longer than 2nd Century BC.
-Old Kingdom Egypt
-Maya
-Norse Mythology
Etc.
Good explanation.
It's a wrong explanation. There's no wobbling. I've been meaning to read Hamlet's Mill because I'm curious if the ancients did actually understand it better. Modern astrophysics is trash.
There's also like Lilith which I'm sure they're using-a true north and a node North, which means Polaris is not actually true North star. If I'm not mistaken I think it may be Sirius or something like that I don't remember.
