With a typical fan, run the fan counter-clockwise in the summer, and in the winter, run the fan clockwise at a low speed. In the summer, blow the air down to directly cool you.

My ceiling fan doesn't have a summer and winter switch - how can I change it from summer to winter?

Your fan must be an industrial model. Commercial fans usually have reversing switches mounted beside the speed controller for the fan. The reasoning behind this is that the fans are usually in warehouses that have high ceiling that are hard to get to switch from summer to winter. To switch from summer to winter in your type of fan, the wiring has to be changed inside the motor box. Fans for use in homes will all have the reverse switch.
