Description

wood, base

The “kakishi” is placed on a woven mat on the ground between the diviner and the client. The suppliant addresses his questions to the “kakishi”, and then diviner and client insert their first two fingers into the space that constitutes the body of the device. The “kakishi” moves in various patterns, which signify “yes” or “no” answers or no answer at all.
