I just shuffled my Tarot of the Pagan Cats deck and drew 28 cards from the top of the stack. Out of those 28 cards, fully 20 of them had some sort of magickal symbology, including signs for the elements, and also including pentacles. So just a quick look shows that there is quite a bit of magickly-oriented symbology. Now, whether that symbology is specifically "Pagan" or not, I don't know, but just off the top of my head I don't think that if you pulled 28 cards from, say, the Rider-Waite deck, you'd be likely to find 20 of those 28 cards showing an occult symbol, regardless of whether the symbols seemed Pagan or just occult/magickal. To me, when I look through this deck, it has a very, very magickal, occult energy to it. But not in a heavy way like the Haindl or the Thoth. I would not call the Tarot of Pagan Cats a "Pagan" deck because there really isn't reference to Pagan Gods, other than a statue of the Goddess on one card and maybe a very few other things like that. But I WOULD DEFINITELY call it a "witchy" deck because it has a witchy feel to it. It also has some qabalistic symbolism.
Really, it's a great deck. I've been collecting tarots and studying occult symbology since '96 and this is one of my very favorite.
