Dimitri, In this case you do know which way you are looking. For brevity let's consider a tetrahedral carbon atom with four different substituents... the first thing you do is to assign them priorities based on there atomic numbers then you place the smallest priority backward... this gives you the point of reference you need to say clockwise and anticlockwise...
