I date myself, perhaps, but in my circle, when "The Tarot of the Cat People" was first released, it was considered to be the tip of an iceberg of shameless pandering of the occult to collectors of hobbyist ephemera. Among my friends this deck's very existence was met with both shock and amused horror, which we sought to moderate with a veneer of jest.. We took to jokingly calling all such conflations "The [Xxx] of the Cat People" and laughing as we did so. In those terms, an LBRP that uses Hindu deities would be officially known as "The Lesser Banishing Ritual of the Hindu Cat People." Hope this helps. cat yronwode Hoodoo Correspondence Course: http://www.luckymojo.com/mojocourse.html
