Clockwise and counterclockwise are opposite directions of motion.
- Clockwise motion (negative mathematical direction) designates circular motion around a pivot point similar to that of the hand of a timepiece - e.g. top, then right, then bottom, then left, then top again.
- Counterclockwise motion (positive mathematical direction) designates the opposite direction of motion - e.g. top, then left, then bottom, then right, then top again.
