Answer:

The axis of the Earth is tilted 23.44 degrees from the ecliptic (the direction to the sun). This tilt causes our changing seasons as the months pass. On Earth, the north star is Polaris, and it changes on a cycle of -25,700 years as the Earth's orbit precesses around the sun in the opposite direction to our orbital motion around the sun. The axial tilt of the Earth oscillates between 22.1 and 24.5 degrees on a cycle of -41,000 years. The lunar axis of rotation is tilted 6.68 degrees to the plane of the lunar orbit. The elliptical orbital path of the Moon around the Earth is tilted 5.145 degrees to the ecliptic. The orbital plane of the Moon around the Earth and the Earth's equatorial plane intersect at a line which we call the line of nodes. The line of nodes orbits the Earth on a repeating cycle of 18.61 years (6,798 days) which we call the precession of the lunar nodes. This nodal precession (Lunar precession) is moving in the opposite direction of the Moon in its orbit around the Earth. The elliptical lunar orbit itself precesses on a cycle of 8.85 years. This cycle combines with the orbital period of the Earth around the sun and produces the windows during which lunar and Solar eclipses can occur, which are separated in time by 173.3 days (on average). The ellipse becomes more or less eccentric on yet another periodic cycle. To picture this motion, imagine a frisbee (or a round coin) rolling to a stop on a flat surface, except that the disc of the lunar orbit never stops rolling around (i.e. - the frisbee never comes to rest).
