Most popular theory:
1.) same direction than the crystal's direction ->
-> higher success

2.) direction of the element strong over the crystal->
-> higher HQs

direction of the arrow = direction of the crystal
(arrow's color)
-> 1.)
direction of the section on the ring = direction of the element being strong over the crystal
(ring-segments's color)
-> 2.)

(I would have had trouble too if I hadn't been familiar with that theory before I saw the picture ;) )
I hope that clears things up a bit.

For HQ face the direction on the ring - so fire is west on the ring, west for HQ.

its pretty simple.
Fire crystal = NW and W for HQ
Earth crystal = S and SE for HQ
Wind crystal = SE and E for HQ
Lightning crystal = SW and S for HQ
Water crystal = W and SW for HQ
Ice crystal = E and NW for HQ
Dark crystal = N and NE for HQ
Light crystal = NE and N for HQ

Maybe its easier to view it written like that then deal with the image^^
