>That is not what we call a reiki circle here. We have a reiki table set up and one person gets on the table and everyone else gathers around in chairs, stools, whatever, and we all be reiki with this person. Front and back, the usual positions but of course depending on how many are there, hands are placed on the person.
Hi finality
what you are describing is actually Shuchu Reiki (a Group Reiki Treatment), not the 'Reiki Circle' (AKA the 'Reiki Current' or 'Reiki Mawashi')
REIKI MAWASHI
(The Reiki Current)

Reiki Mawashi is a group-based energy cycling meditation.
It can also be used as a means of giving Reiki Treatment.
In the West, Reiki Mawashi is commonly referred to as the Reiki Circle as it involves a group of Reiki practitioners seated in a circle.
Each practitioner holds their left hand palm up and their right hand palm down.
They place their right hand on the upward-facing left palm of the person to their right and their left hand under the downward-facing right palm of the person to their left.
In this way, all the practitioners are connected, forming an unbroken chain or circle.
Entering the crown of each practitioner, Reiki flows around the circle, in an anti-clockwise direction, and can frequently build to levels of considerable intensity.
In some versions of Reiki Mawashi, rather than making actual physical contact with the person on either side, the practitioners keep their hands an inch or two apart.
Some also suggest that when Reiki Mawashi is employed as a means of giving treatment, a Reiki Master should stand at the center of the circle, directing/'beaming' the flow of Reiki to the specific chosen intent.
