A quick google search brought up the following:
http://www.teenwitch.org/dailyspell/lesson05.html
The Scottish names of the Airts are these; East -Aes, South -Deas, West -Iar, and North -Tuath. These were the guardians of the Directions, who marked the extent and nature of existence, and who defined the limits of the Magic Circle. Clockwise movement in the circle is called Deosil, or Southward, and is used to raise or charge energy. Counter-clockwise movement was called Tuathail, or Northward -though Gardnerians have popularized the colloquial term “Widdershins” in many circles. Counter-clockwise movement in the circle is used to cleanse or release energy.
Hope this is of some help to you.

Just wanted to quickly note that's not just Correllian, it's actually common to any Wiccan trad.
