The record
The Pagan Tarot is the brainchild of Tarot reader and webmaster Gina M. Pace, also known online as Wicce. Different from most other Pagan or Wiccan themed decks, her 78-card Tarot depicts the life of a witch whose spirituality and daily life flow in harmony through ultra-real and modern illustrations. My first impressions of this deck were to think it fluffy and light: an older but not wiser sister to the adolescent Witchy Tarot. But thats not the case - the Pagan Tarot, instead, is firmly grounded in reality. Flipping through cards feels like were flicking through snapshots of a twenty-something American Pagan girl - a modern girl with modern accoutrements: cards, computers, even a laptop - taken at regular intervals in her daily life. It comes across to me as a Tarot of the everyday; very prosaic and oriented towards the physical and material aspects of life. (Minutiae outweighs the spectacular in most lives, and it adds an extra touch of realism that it does so in this deck as well!) As mentioned, the card imagery is very modern, but the symbolism will be familiar to the regular Tarot reader. This is the kind of intuitive Tarot that supplies very human, very plausible scenes
