The needle tip always points North, not where you are looking.

It doesn't matter what you think it should do.

Forget about the notches on the compass ring. Align yourself to the needle's tip.

If the needle if pointing straight ahead, you are facing North.

If you turn 90 degrees to the left, the needle has not moved. It's still pointing North.

This means that you are now turning to face West.

The needle did not "move to the right and point East"

It continued to point North as it will always point North.

See this needle? It's pointing North.

I'm facing somewhat

South-East.

Needle is STILL pointing North.

I'm now facing South-West.

"BUT...BUT YOU'RE WRONG! IT'S BROKEN!"

No, you just fail to Understand that the needle ALWAYS points North.

Review

The needle always points north.
