Such a motion is called precession and consists of a cyclic wobbling in the orientation of Earth's axis of rotation with a period of 25,772 years. ... Precession is caused by the gravitational influence of the Sun and the Moon acting on Earth's equatorial bulge. To a much lesser extent, the planets exert influence as well.
