My brain was like "why do people so desperately need to find moss that it not being on the north side would mean death?" Before remembering many people don't know which way they are facing (or left and right) usually. (Also, I'm sure I'd do worse in an unfamiliar area)
The best way to actually figure out directions is to learn how the sky works. It's not complicated, really - stars stay in the same place, the sun and moon slowly move along the ecliptic (a specific big circle), and it all spins around the poles with the time of day.
Although, I've heard you actually can use moss for packing wounds, since it's pretty absorbent.
