Each key is one-fifth apart if you go around the circle clockwise, which is why it's called the "circle of fifths." If you go counter-clockwise, the keys are only a fourth apart, so sometimes you'll also hear it referred to as the "circle of fourths," but both of these terms refer to the same thing.

That tells you that E minor is the relative minor of G Major. Its relative minor is G minor and its parallel minor is B-flat minor. Below are all secondary dominant chords (triads and major-minor seventh chords) in the minor mode. The lowered note in V IV V 7 / IV acts as 4 of the chord being tonicized in the same way the last flat of a key signature is 4. If you look on the circle of fifths, you'll see a lower-case "e" in the same position on the circle as G Major. In the major mode, the only secondary dominant with a lowered chromaticism is V IV V 7 / IV.

For example, suppose you have a key signature with 1 sharp, which you know is G Major.

The minor key at the same point on the circle as the major key is the relative minor of that major key. The capital letters on the outside of the circle represent the major keys and the lower case letters on the inside of the circle represent the minor keys.

The circle of fifths shows how the 12 tones of the chromatic scale relate to one another. Every key signature represents both a major and a minor key (referred to as the "relative" minor). Refer to the circle of fifths to find the relative minor key.
