Eclipse of the sun
In the northern hemisphere the circulation around a high is clockwise. In the southern hemisphere the circulation around a high is counter-clockwise.
It depends on your veiwpoint. The normal solar system model shows earth with its north pole pointing up and the south pole pointing down, with the celestrial poles in the same direction. If it is considered like this, then the planets orbit the sun in an anti-clockwise (or counter-clockwise as some would have it) direction when looking down from overhead.
All of the planets in our solar system orbit the sun in the same direction, but at varying speeds depending on distance from the sun. If looked at from above the earths north pole, they would go counter clockwise.
In the Southern Hemisphere, ocean currents generally rotate clockwise due to the Coriolis effect, which deflects moving objects to the left. This means that currents tend to flow in a circular motion in a clockwise direction around high-pressure systems.
People walk around the Kaaba in a counter-clockwise (anti-clockwise) direction during the Tawaf ritual. This practice is part of the pilgrimage rituals in Islam, symbolizing the unity of believers in the worship of the One God. Pilgrims aim to keep the Kaaba to their left as they circumambulate it.
The mapping rule for a rotation of 270 degrees clockwise around the origin can be expressed as (x, y) → (y, -x). This means that the x-coordinate becomes the y-coordinate, and the y-coordinate becomes the negative of the x-coordinate. Essentially, the point is rotated three-quarters of a full turn in the clockwise direction.

If you looked from the "top" it would be clockwise, but then if you looked from the bottom it would be counter-clockwise (anti-clockwise). Since there is no "top" or "bottom", there is no direction except "around".
The direction of electron movement around the nucleus is based on convention and can be either clockwise or anti-clockwise. There is no specific reason why electrons would revolve around the nucleus in one direction over the other. Both directions are equally valid and are used interchangeably in atomic models.
When an object is rotated 270 degrees clockwise, it effectively turns three-quarters of the way around a pivot point. For example, if you take the letter "L" and rotate it 270 degrees clockwise, it will end up facing downward, resembling a backward "J." This transformation alters the orientation of the object while maintaining its shape and dimensions.

In a track cycling the riders cycle around the track in a anti clockwise directionTrack cycling (on a velodrome or banked bicycle racing oval) is always counter-clockwise, turning left. This is the standard direction for racing throughout the world. -
The moon moves counter-clockwise around the earh
It is said that Jupiter orbits clockwise
