'''Jikaze''' {{kana|自風}} are the seat wind designations for each player. At all times, every player is designated as [[Kazehai|East, South, West, or North]] {{kana|東、 南、 西、 北}}. For memorization, the winds are referred in that order counterclockwise. The same wind order applies to [[dora]]. By rule, East is always the dealer, while South is to the right. West is across, and North is to the left relative of the dealer. Likewise, player turns follow the regular wind order, although the order may be disrupted by calls of [[naki|pon]] or [[kan]]. The call for [[naki|chii]] does not disrupt the turn order. | '''Jikaze''' {{kana|自風}} are the seat wind designations for each player.

During the [[hanchan|course of the game]], the dealer seat rotates among the four players. So, naturally, the designation for East also rotates with the dealer position. Likewise, the designations for the other winds rotate in a similar fashion. At all times, the counterclockwise order remains the same: East, South, West, and North. | No player retains the same wind position throughout the game, unless the game happens to end before a wind rotation occurs.
