There are, of course, exceptions to this convention. Currents usually flow from top to bottom. Signals flow from left to right, and voltage potentials generally (for voltage regulation) decrease from left to right.

So, how to read a schematic? At a very high level, schematics across most of the “western world” are read from left to right, the same as we read the text in our languages.
