Only found this out two months ago:
[especially good when moon is visible in the afternoon sky]
Face the Moon, lift arm, as in a salute, kinda, & line up the nail of you little finger with the Horns of the Crescent, or of the Gibbous; then look towards where your elbow is pointing to:if you be North of the Moon, this will be South; if South of the Moon, North. Use the same eye for both tasks: use whichever arm lines up with the slant. [pinky high, elbow low]
O, and try it out at home first, or some place where you know, or can check on, True North.
Isn't it wonderful, how God made us!
