is it possible to do simple navigation (north, south, east and west) via looking at stars? if so what is a good guide to it?
t. only goes outdoors to pick berries and afraid to get lost in the forest

No dude it can't be done, nobody has ever navigated by the stars. They move too much and are impossible to predict. Making a star chart or designating some star as the north star is too much.

Polaris is the north star in the northern hemisphere.... why are you trying to lie to OP.... you suck...

>and afraid to get lost in the forest
Just tie a thread to the first tree you see and then keep hold as you walk along, you'll never get lost.

Kek.
I can’t tell who’s trolling who.

If only something had been invented in 1595 to do such a thing....

I know skids and larpers think that a sextant is the end all be all tool for navigation, because none of you have ever actually used one. Sextants work best on the open ocean. I have used them. Repeatedly. I have used map and compass. I have used live satellite feed. I have used GPS. A simple phone works best for most retards navigational needs.

Just use a compass and gps on your phone bro.

this, it's impossible

Lmao op you cant navigate with the stars. What utter nonsense. This isn't star trek.
