Facing the Zodiac, East is to your RIGHT, and as a result of the CLOCKWISE rotation of the Earth towards the East, the Constellations move ANTICLOCKWISE across the sky, and the Sun, Moon and Planets move CLOCKWISE through the Zodiac.

The “Reflections” of the Constellations are an attempt to use confirmation bias against the silly habit of analysing Southern Hemisphere psyches against the backdrop of Northern Hemisphere seasons. Houses I-III give Northern Tropical interpretations, Houses IV-VI the opposite Tropical interpretations; Houses VII-IX identify the Constellations with their Signs, and Houses X-XII the opposite Signs.

This arrangement is entirely arbitrary, although it has an aesthetic value for me in incorporating CHANGE.
