If you want to directly face the docking slot when you jump out of supercruise so that it's a straight path into the docking bay, just remember a couple things when you approach any of the rotation stations. 

The station docking slot always faces the planet and it is tilted up at a 45deg angle from their orbit toward the north pole of the planet.

You can think of the north pole of a planet as tending to point in the same direction (as much as it can) as the galactic north.

It helps when you want to get in the station as fast as possible.
