HOW TO FIND WHERE THE SOUTH IS WITHOUT A COMPASS.

Dear Steemit

If we are in a situation where we have to orient ourselves to the directions of the world in order to survive and find a way out, there is a way for that to happen. There is an old military technique that commandos have used to navigate the directions of the world without a compass.

The technique is very simple and easy to perform, of course, if you have a sun and a clock with hands. Place your hand parallel to the ground with the clock pointing up.

if your House or you are standing or staying in North side then you should focus your clock at the sun.The point halfway between this arrow and 12 o'clock (13 o'clock in winter) always points to the South.

Now if you are staying in south then you should line your clock at the sun.The point of half the distance between the arrow and 12 o'clock (13 o'clock in winter) will always point exactly to the North.

Important! If the clock is moved forward to save daylight, use the distance of up to 13 hours as described above.

Another easy way is to look at the moss on the stones or trees, if there are any, of course, and if they have moss on them. It is formed only on the northern part of the stone, ie the opposite direction is South.

Hello there, friend.
To be honest, this is the first time I've heard of this information, and it's very useful in some situations, such as a camping trip or a picnic, when we don't want to bring our phones because almost all mobile phones nowadays have a compass and Google Maps application that does all the hard work for us.
In any case, this is a good post with helpful information.
Thank you for taking the time to share it with us.

Lol.. Greetings friend.. Knowing this for the first time.
