It is so interesting to me that your mental calendar goes counter-clockwise. What is the intuition that picks that handedness?

I've always been curious about this -- mine is also counter-clockwise, but with January 1 down around the 7 o'clock position. I've always assumed I imported that from a calendar with aligned seasons (like with the peak of summer at July/August being at the top of the circle), but no real idea of where it originated.
