Sky maps are used to give us a picture of the night sky. At different times of year different portions of the sky are visible.

So what is it? @jtstrumpf
Seasons. For example where I live I can only see orion in the winter time and the big dipper in the summer time, so I have to change my sky map based on the season.
Since we are moving around the sun, and night time is when we face away from it, a half a year later the night sky we used to be looking at is now behind our day time sun!
oh
precession of earth
the wobble changes the horizons wrt the stars i believe, just guessing.
