The planisphere needs to rotated to be used. You hold it by a corner of the card stock. You hold one of 4 corners. Put icons for the 4 seasons in each corner, such that you hold it in your left hand, and your left thumb covers the current season, and the chart is roughly oriented for typical use for an evening. That is, with the current month near/at the bottom, ready to go.
