It is "painting" a path in the air so we are just writing the painting of the path it creates - Imagine black paint on the tip of the finger and think of the path the fingertip is writing in the air...

> Finger Circles are first read by the position of the Finger Line itself - the reader sees the position of the Finger Line first - let's imagine that the Finger Line is at a diagonal - and then the half-circle symbol is placed near the tip of the Finger Line and it is only one half so you know to do a half circle in the direction of the arrowhead -

My problem is that I don’t know why the second column in each are half circles and which direction each one represents.  For example, is the first one in the second column  (S2f110)  representing the fingers moving in circles to the left and then down?
