A simple general equation is obtained for the velocity of meridional circulation caused by an arbitrary conservative deformation of a star with an arbitrary equation of state of the matter. On its basis the circulation in radiative and degenerate regions of rotating stars is analyzed for rigid-body and differential rotation. Possible consequences of circulation mixing are discussed: an anomalous content of C and N in stars with masses of approx. (2--3)M/sub sun/, the existence of DB dwarfs in the presence of accretion, the additional luminosity of white dwarfs due to the burning of accreted hydrogen carried deep into the star by circulation, etc.
