Point your left thumb in the direction of the X axis and curl your fingers around the axis, and they will curve in the direction of rotation. Point your left thumb in the direction of the Z axis and curl your fingers around the axis, and they will curve in the direction of rotation.

Point your left thumb in the direction of the Y axis and curl your fingers around the axis, and they will curve opposite of the direction of rotation.

Is this right?!
