the Earth's axis always wobbles but it does so seasonally and when it does it changes seasons in certian locations. when the axis wobbles, whatever location you are in will either get tilted towards the Sun or get tilted away from the Sun, which changes the season with the help of the revolution of the Earth around the Sun

How does the north star changes?
Due to the earths precession (How the earth 'wobbles' on its axis) the pole star changes over time. Though this takes many, many years
which best describes precession ?
Earth's axis wobbles.
What are other earth's movement aside from rotation and revolution?
The Earth spins like a top around its own axis. The Earth orbits the Sun. The Sun has its own proper motion through the Milky Way galaxy, and orbits the center of the galaxy every 220 million years or so. The Milky Way galaxy itself is moving, but because we don't have any fixed point of reference in the universe, we don't know in what direction.
What is planitary wobble?
I believe that is when the rotation of the planet moves(wobbles) its North-South Axis. Normally a planet will have this axis point in one direction.
Why does the tilt of earths axis relative to its orbit cause the seasons as earth revolves around the sun?
The tilt of the Earth plus the rotational speed of 1000Mph cases a wobble effect. So the Earth not only orbits on is axis it wobbles on it. See below http://www.soes.soton.ac.uk/staff/ejr/DarkMed/F7wobble.jpg
Why are the seasons reversed in the northern and southern hemisphere?
Because Earths axis is tilted.
What does Earths magnetic axis do not do with its rotational axis?
intersect
What is the Imaginary rod on which the earth rotate?
The axis
Why does the Earth have seasons in shorter words?
Because it 'wobbles' on its axis - and orbits the sun in an oval path (instead of a circle)
How much of the tilt of the earth axis?
About 23.5 degrees, but it wobbles around this angle (between 22.1 and 24.5 degrees).
Two reasons for seasons?
1. Tilt of earths axis 2. Earths axis remains parallel throughout its yearly orbit.
Is the earth spinning on the x or y axis?
The Earth rotates on the X-Axis but also "wobbles" slightly on the Y-axis. This cause many interesting effects on our tides and day and night cycles in some parts of the world.
