ironymaidenis there a preference in any Asian cultures for clockwise versus counterclockwise rotation or path?
i know that the direction you wrap a kimono matters, and i know that swastika decorations typically have the arms facing left instead of the right-facing nazi usage. i'm not coming up with the right keywords to google this, so if anyone has a clue or can point me in a direction, i'd appreciate it.
EDIT: i'm using a fabric with a directional print of geishas on it; i'd prefer that i not send an unintended message by turning them the wrong way.
