Looking from high above the North Pole, almost everything in the solar system turns counter-clockwise. The planets all orbit that way, and all except two of the planets spin that way as well.

The two exceptions are Venus, which just barely rotates at all (but clockwise) and Neptune, which rotates more on its side than anything else.
