With the recent developments that this is a mass mail for gamers - suddenly "JOYPAD" stands out in this list of all potential anagrams for the set of 6 symbols. May be possible to solve this by skipping whatever's going on in the compass entirely by plugging in every possible anagram and seeing if the other set of six also is a real word while using the same 4 unknown letters in each.
Of course in the case of JOYPAD it would be incorrect due to OYP not being letters a month begins with nor OY being a letter between A-L (or the two aforementioned speculations about the compass are both incorrect)
