the way i see it (practically speaking) there are only 4. the difference is the number of axis we're working with.
in frontal and horizontal planes, we have two axis (basically the shoulder joint)
in the saggital plane the elbow basically becomes the axis and due to it's hinge nature the range of motion is naturally more limited and so we go from 8 down to 4 circles.

I see. Dima and Russian guys gave basically the same answer.

although the Sifu as intimated that it IS POSSIBLE to create more than 4 but that the level of coordination needed is extreme.

This becomes interesting. Did he say that? Or just made a small hint that it might be possible?
The reason I aks is not only due to the fact that I was able to make a drawing of them on paper.
I was able to do all the 12 cricles in real life. Unfortunately I do not have enough listening power to say whether they have been real saggital. Or it was simply 12 ways to move you hands in saggital plane (of course, with some body movement). And it looks like in some of the movements there will be no power, or I would even break my structure in some way.
Anyway, that's interesting and somewhat intriguing to know that Sifu said that it might be possible.
