    They might be better ways, but I got headache and it's the only thing that I can think of...
    By default the "Circle Shape" is Facing the local Z-axis of the "VFX GameObject".

    So You use a new "transform" to drive both the "Circle Transform" and also a local (0,0,1) vector that will be used
    to drive the Rotation Axis.

    By selecting this new "Transform" block on the left, you 'll still able to manipulate the Position/orientation/scale of the Arc Circle in the Scene.

    Hope that it helps and answer your question.
    Good day.
