Eastern and northern windows preferred but if you don’t have those then southern is fine just don’t have it right in the window or in the direct sun light

I saw a good description about indirect light one time that stuck in my head so I wanted to share it. Put your face where the plant is going. Can you see the sun? If you can, it’s direct light even if it’s through a window. Indirect light is when you can’t see the sun, but there is still light on the leaves.
