I took a lesson from Richard Lloyd once. In that format, he goes much deeper into the Circle of Fifths. He finds as much spiritual meaning in it as Coltrane did in the symmetries found in the drawings of the original article.

You are lucky. He's an idiosyncratic and eccentric, but unique and brilliant guitar teacher. Also one of the most influential guitarists ever. He has issues too, but I think his unique approach overcomes his mental health history and he's stabilized a lot after getting the right medication. I've heard he now conducts lessons over Skype and I should check to see if he's taking new students.
