Hey Occulties, I realize I sort of flew off the radar for a few months. If I’m being fair, the combination of “discount laptop,” combined with using the formatting nightmare which is wordpress and added to my regular behind the scenes crazy life (I only ever wanted a normal life, but God had other plans,)
About the Author
My name is Cat, sometimes called originalninjacat, in other circles known as Cat Astrophied. I’ve read tarot since I was about 12 (professionally since my late teens,) and have been a student of the occult virtually my whole life. I mainly practice rootwork, but am knowledgeable in many paradigms.
The original incarnation of the Cat’s Rants blog existed at TypePad for 21 years, until TypePad dissolved permanently in late 2025. All original posts from that blog exist here.
The Cat’s Rants blog was started in late 2004 when I would continuously see the same commonly held misconceptions and errors being repeated in occult and spell based groups, and at first was more of an outlet for me to be able to express my frustration in seeing this. It rapidly caught on and became an educational blog with a large readership. I’ve spent about half my life writing Cat’s Rants, and will continue to do so, hopefully for years to come.
