We present a novel method for actively controlling circular and/or spin-rotational motion of an optically trapped airborne micro-particle. A 532-nm Gaussian laser beam is shaped into an elliptical ring by a pair of axicons and a cylindrical lens. The shaped beam is then focused into an elliptic cone that produces an optical trap. As the cylindrical lens is rotated, a torque is exerted on the trapped particle, resulting in circular or spin-rotational motion. We show examples of the circular-rotational movement as a function of laser power and the rotation rate of the cylindrical lens.
