Attempt to create live copy gives "circular relation" error

Hi, I'm just trying to create a live copy of my English language masters site and put it in a /us/en directory, but it's giving me this error: "Can not establish Relation from /content/mysite/language-masters/en -> /content/mysite/us/en/jcr:content: would be circular"

I'm trying to make a live copy of mysite/language-masters/en and put it in mysite/us/en. Any ideas about why this isn't working?
