In the north will the sun cast a shadow south?

Apparently, somebody told you that the sun rises in the South. I'm going to tell you that it rises in the East. So you have two different opinions now, and they can't both be correct, so you must determine whether either one is correct, and if so, which one. Here's an experiment you could perform to answer the question by your own observations: 1). Look on the weather page of your local newspaper, and see what time the sun is expected to rise tomorrow. 2). Get up 1/2 hour before that time, dress, and go outside. 3). Around the published time, start looking around the horizon. 4). Look and see where the sun rises. If the sky is clear and your investigation is successful, you'll never have to take anyone else's word for it again.
