All roads lead to East New Westersouth.

I have problems telling right from left. At least I'm the moment, if I take my time I can tell.

But I almost always know my cardinal directions

Do you “write” with your “right” hand? That’s how I remember.

[–] Akasazh@feddit.nl 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Like I said repeatedly. If I get to think about it I know what side is what. It's only in the moment when I falter

[–] Noel_Skum@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 month ago

I only mention it as for the last forty years or so every time that someone has said left or right I’ve twitched my hands to work out which one I hold a pen(cil) with. Takes less than half a second and I don’t need to look at them either. It’s not unique not immediately knowing which is which. Live with it.

Or just ask them which is west and they can point you towards it? Your not a compass needle lol, what is that assumption.

Yes. Maps always have up as north. So just hold a map in front of you, and forward direction is north. Easy.

The Sun rises in the East and sets in the west.

With East on your right and west on your left you would be facing north.

You can tell which side of the equator you are on by the way water swirls. Northern Hemisphere water drains clockwise. If water draining has no spin then you're on the equator.

Sometimes the moss on trees is enough of an indicator, as moss growing on only one side of a tree means no sunlight reaches it and the moss faces the direction opposite of the equator.
