Reeling silk is markedly different from mere connection.
Its unique quality is the use of circularity.
Spiralling and twisting provide the underlying physical framework for this type
of movement.
'Winding' or 'drawing' refers to action of bringing force towards you and is
reflected in the
jing of rollback and pluck.
'Reeling' is the reverse of winding; in which force is projected (fa jing)
from the body by the use of spiralling.
When you perform reeling silk, your body should move like a caterpillar;
undulating, feeding an energy wave through the entire structure.
