how does navigation with a compass work?

Wouldn’t setting and facing a compass to 20 degrees West, mean the needle points 20 degrees east (on the compass face)?

You orient the needle to be on the N of the compass. Now you orient yourself to be pointing across the compass in the direction you want to go. Now walk.
