In what directions are the rooms laid out in "Masque of The Red Death"?

The rooms are laid out from East to West and they are done so as a metaphor for life. Many people use the sunrise and the sunset as a metaphor for life. The sun rises in the East the world lights up and so life begins. The sun shines brighter until midday and then the light begins to wan just like life. Finally the sun sets in the west and the world goes dark, just as when we die. The rooms in the abbey are also set up as such and the colors represent each stage of life that we pass through.
