Six of the eight major planets rotate "anticlockwise" (counterclockwise) as seen from above the Earth's north pole: Mercury, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn and Neptune.

The rotation of Venus is slowly clockwise, while the spin of Uranus is now observed to be clockwise because it has been tipped over more than 90 degrees "onto its side" (as if rolling along its orbital path at times).
