Psalms 75:6 (King James Version)
For promotion cometh neither from the east, nor from the west, nor from the south.
Notice in this verse, that there's no north, because north represents or symbolizes Heaven the dwelling place of GOD. So therefore, in this verse, it is saying indirectly that north is the direction where promotion is coming from, only GOD can give promotion to a man.
A. Promotion does not come from the east, nor from the west
"For not from the east nor from the west"
Promotion or "rum" from Hebrew language meaning:
1. to be high
2. to rise or raise

Promotion - the act of promoting; advancement; encouragement; as the promotion of virtue or morals; the promotion of peace or of discord. Example: My promotion will be thy destruction.
East or "motsa motsa" in Hebrew means:
1. a going forth
2. an egress - the act of going or issuing out, or the power of departing from any inclosed or confined place. [Source: Webster's dictionary]
3. an exit
4. a source or product
5. the rising of the sun

East is a direction where the sun is rising up, where people place crops and plants to be exposed to sunlight. It's not the direction where promotion is coming from.
The direction "East" according to it's usage, means "out of" as proven by these verses:
Numbers 30:12 (Amplified Bible)
But if her husband positively made them void on the day he heard them, then whatever proceeded OUT OF her lips concerning her vows or concerning her pledge of herself shall not stand. Her husband has annulled them, and the Lord will forgive her.
Deuteronomy 8:3 (Amplified Bible)
And He humbled you and allowed you to hunger and fed you with manna, which you did not know nor did your fathers know, that He might make you recognize and personally know that man does not live by bread only, but man lives by every word that proceeds OUT OF the mouth of the Lord.
Psalms 89:34 (Amplified Bible)
My covenant will I not break or profane, nor alter the thing that is GONE OUT of My lips.
And in some places it's, it's a water spring.
Psalms 107:33 (Amplified Bible)
He turns rivers into a wilderness, WATER SPRINGS into a thirsty ground,
Psalms 107:35 (Amplified Bible)
He turns a wilderness into a pool of water and a dry ground into WATER SPRINGS;
Isaiah 41:18 (Amplified Bible)
I will open rivers on the bare heights, and fountains in the midst of the valleys; I will make the wilderness a pool of water, and the dry land SPRINGS OF WATER.
again in another place, "east" means "going forth"
Ezekiel 44:5 (King James Version)
And the LORD said unto me, Son of man, mark well, and behold with thine eyes, and hear with thine ears all that I say unto thee concerning all the ordinances of the house of the LORD, and all the laws thereof; and mark well the entering in of the house, with every GOING FORTH of the sanctuary.
Daniel 9:25 (King James Version)
Know therefore and understand, that from the GOING FORTH of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem unto the Messiah the Prince shall be seven weeks, and threescore and two weeks: the street shall be built again, and the wall, even in troublous times.
