Twin Sumi-e Tarot Decks
For years I have been fascinated by Japanese aesthetics — the poetry of silence, the beauty of impermanence, the quiet presence of the divine in nature. Tarot, to me, has always been more than fortune-telling. It is a mirror of the soul. From this connection, two tarot decks were born:
雲の道 Kumo no Michi – The Path of the Clouds
神の道 Kami no Michi – The Path of the Gods
Both decks are illustrated in traditional black ink sumi-e style, printed on uncoated recycled paper to preserve the raw texture of brush and breath. They follow the classical tarot structure, but each card is expanded with Japanese poetry, Zen philosophy, and mythic symbolism.This campaign is my invitation to you — to walk the path of clouds, to walk the path of gods.
雲の道 Path of the Clouds
Symbolic, poetic, abstract. No human figures — only mist, wind, branches, cranes, moonlight, falling petals. Each card combines: Traditional tarot meaning, A short haiku-style verse, A quiet, introspective interpretation in the spirit of Zen and Mono no, Aware (the sadness and beauty of impermanence).This deck is for those who read between the lines, who listen to silence.
Mythological, narrative, spiritual. A journey through the Japanese pantheon: Amaterasu, Susanoo, Tsukuyomi, Izanagi, Izanami, Raijin, Inari, and more. Each card reflects: A classical tarot archetype, A myth or divine story, Its wisdom for the human heart, Where Kumo no Michi whispers, Kami no Michi speaks in stories and thunder.
