Cats wag their tails for many reasons including contentment which is a nice slow, sensual (if you will) motion. Hard wagging (thumping on the ground when lying down) means that they're ready to play, rough-house or fight. I call this "kitten mode". A back and forth flitting motion in the pounce mode means, well, they're going to pounce.

The cat's tail can tell you many things about it's mood. You may want to consult a good descriptive book on cats to get more answers.
