In which direction are looking the cards?

I do recall one book --I forget which-- has you throw the Celtic Cross differently depending on which way the significator faces. If it faces front or right, the right side of the cross is future, while it is on the left if the sig faces left.
That's in the CC section of Waite's own The Pictorial Key to the Tarot. Well, he says if it doesn't face left or right, to make up your mind ahead of time which way will be which.
