Currently the Earth's pole points toward Polaris in Ursa Minor. 5000 years ago it pointed towards Vega.
depends on which hemisphere you live if on top it is towards the sun
because of the earths axis
Earth's magnetic axis is tilted at an angle of approximately 11 degrees from its geographic axis. This means that the magnetic north pole is not exactly aligned with the geographic north pole. The tilt causes compass needles to point slightly off from true north in certain locations.
Because Earths axis is tilted.
The center of mass of Earth is located at a point close to its geometric center but shifted slightly towards the side where the heavier mass concentration is. This point is crucial for various calculations in physics and astronomy.
the axis is a imaginary line that cuts trough the earth it points southwest and northeast

dogs usually align themselves with the north/south axis and how this is dogs have sensitive chemicals which allows them to sense the earths axis
The axis is always aimed toward a point in the sky near Polaris :))
Hi it points to da Sun. da
There are two things that cause it which are the earths orbit and thetilt of the earths axis.
The Earth rotates on its axis causing either the North or South Hemishere to tilt towards the sun which ever hemishere is tilted toward the sun it is probably spring or summer.

we have seasons because of how the earth is tilted on the earths axis, for example if you live in england, its winter when your futher away from the sun and you have summer when your tilted towards the sun.
1. Tilt of earths axis 2. Earths axis remains parallel throughout its yearly orbit.
The direction of the "point" of Earth's axis of spin does not change (at least not noticeably on human time scales - there is a 25 thousand year precession). The orbit of the Earth round the Sun means that the north pole of this axis of spin is pointing towards the sun in Summer, away in Winter and sideways in Autumn and Spring.
