I've noticed this issue across all Rocket Themes ...
In the west we read from left to right, AND therefore negative or "back/previous" is to the left <---, whereas "forward/next" should be to the right --->.
Why is this all backwards at RocketTheme? ... see attachment for example.
Curious, this has been backwards for several years now.
I've asked the same thing myself of the GRAV developers and they have said they won't be changing it. It's been that way since GRAV inception. In fact, I believe if you look on ther GRAV github project you may even find the issue I raised about some time ago.
It's easy to change though with a little CSS or by creating overrides.
Regards, Mark.
