"Sasuraibito" Tarot Cloth by Stasia Burrington
The Sasuraibito Tarot Cloth.
Four Death's-head Hawkmoths flank a starry-night sky center, woven together with Forget-me-not flower vines. The four corners contain the four tarot suits: Cups, Swords, Wands and Pentacles. The design is also subdivided into 12 sections, partitioned by bones. This is useful for spreads having to do with time: hours, or months.
The cloth measures 21.5" x 21.5" (54.6 x 54.6 cm).
I illustrated this design to accompany the Sasuraibito Tarot deck, but this 100% cotton silkscreened cloth has many uses!
+ Altar cloth
+ Spread for rituals and spells
+ Bandana
+ Furoshiki
+ Cat cape
+ Small hammock

The Japanese word: "sasuraibito" most closely translates to "wanderer." It's an old-fashioned literary term that is falling out of use, meant to describe a person ever-seeking, searching for a place of healing and refuge.
