Axial Precession

Axial Precession is the gradual, cyclical wobble in the orientation of a planet's rotational axis, caused by gravitational torques from the Sun and Moon acting on the planet's equatorial bulge, which distinguishes it from other forms of planetary motion by altering the timing of seasonal alignment over long periods without changing the axial tilt magnitude.
