If you stood at the north pole and jumped up to look down on our solar system, the earth would be orbiting counter-clockwise, as well as spinning counter-clockwise. The moon would also be orbiting counter-clockwise, as well as spinning counter-clockwise at 1 revolution per orbit. The Earth then rotates 366.25 times per year approximately, which makes for 365.25 days since one is taken up by orbiting the sun.

Retrograde motion, as opposed to prograde motion, is moving clockwise while almost all the other planets and moon move counter-clockwise.

Apparently, the moon rotates the opposite direction the Earth does, which is counter-clockwise, so it rotates clockwise. I don't know how or why, though.
Counter-clockwise. All the planets are in counter-clockwise orbits around the Sun, and all but Venus and Uranus have counter-clockwise rotation (as seen from above the ecliptic plane). The moon is tidally-locked with the Earth so that its rotational and orbital periods are the same.
