    <p><tt>The way I understand the documentation is that if you want to
        start a non collinear magnetic calculation from the result of a
        collinear one you can use the angles defining the magnetic
        orientation of the first atomic species (that has no meaning in
        the collinear case) to rotate the direction of the collinear
        magnetization (conventionally along z) in the desired direction.
        This applies to the whole space and is just the starting guess.
        The subsequent self-consistency will modify it as required by
        the non collinear energy minimization, but the closer you start
        to the right orientation the better it should be.</tt></p>
