I'm throwing this question out there to all cheers

I've always felt Magnetic Nth is the real Nth. A compass doesn't lie lol

True North from Wiki

Quote :

True north is the direction along the earth's surface towards the geographic North Pole. Think about a picture of the world when you think "True North".


North Pole used for measurement:

Although I do not have a logical intelligent brain Soma, I would have thought that the magnetic north is the real north imho. xo

I think I out thought myself on this one Biggsy LOL

I'm right down a rabbit hole at the moment with google earth checking out... Who Bothers to Build their Places of Worship in alignment with Magnetic Nth.

Although True Nth has its purposes, Magnetic Nth is more important inmho.

I have a great example of the Catholics getting their house of worship in my hometown completely wrong in regard to these matters of building in alignment of Magnetic Nth lol!
