As the above post said, it's the geographical direction on which an object is located/facing. If a house is on the east side of a hill it would be considered to have an easterly aspect.

I think of it this way:
You are on a hill, running downwards. The direction you are running to is the aspect of that hill.

yeap thats what i think as well. If they however put it on top of the hill then you will have to examine which side of the slope they give u. :D
