I personally do the advanced one, and I can't tell if it is moving clockwise or counterclockwise because it moves so quickly that it would be impossible to tell. Rather than focusing on the direction, which is a waste of time, focus on the actual speed of the thing. Also because if you try to visualize this in detail using the rationality of the non-spiritual left hemisphere of the brain, etc., it will be a failure. Focus on chakra activity rather than direction.
should I do it clockwise or counterclockwise?
