“I’m Cat, and for a long time, Cat’s Rants, the longest running occult based blog was over at TypePad – since 2004. Sadly, TypePad shuttered permanently as of September 30th 2025. Please be patient while I export 21 years of blog posts over to my new WordPress location. With a much easier url to remember and all your favorite posts all the way back to 04, Cat’s Rants should hopefully improve over its former location.” Cat has practiced and studied the occult, tarot, and spellcasting for over 35 years, and has shared her expert teachings on how to cast your own spells, including original spells and recipes on the Cat’s Rants blog since 2004. A professional tarot reader since the 1990s, she’s also an internationally-known psychic reader and tarot expert. As a published and respected occultist for over two decades, and an expert in the fields of rootwork, hoodoo, and Catholic folk magic, she continues to serve the public by teaching authentic spell casting and offering readings and services.

    Long-Term Work vs Quick Workings in Love Matters

    Hi Occulties, Today I’d like to discuss a topic which I feel is under-served when it comes to educating people in how to get love spells (and, really, any type of relationship-type magic, so even friendship and family/home spellwork,) to come together right. Because we all want a quick and easy answer, but that’s not…

    Questions You’ve Asked Me: Happy To Be Back edition

    Hey Occulties, It’s been SOOOO long since I posted a QYAM, that I really needed to get one out. I’ve been working on a few spell posts, but this one is definitely overdue. Remember, these questions sometimes come from multiple people repeatedly (thus why they can seem repetitive as it means I need to review…

  • Graveyard Spell

    Graveyard Spell

    Hey Occulties, The following spell is generally used in matters of love, business, or of money. I know a few of you may try to use it for more nefarious reasons, and should you do so, be prepared if that goes south for you. Not all dead will help you in matters of adultery/cheating (assuming…

    Q&A: Why Isn’t my Love Spell Working?

    Hey Occulties, If you’re a long time reader, you know I’ve written all about this before, and I’ve answered it in QYAM as well…but it’s a common enough question I get, and the fact that I have people willing to read an article and actually really learn something VS people who expect me to dress…

  • Spell to attract friends and admirers

    Hey Occulties,  Today Id like to focus on a spell to be more liked by others. This isn’t going to help much if you’re an asshole to those around you, and that’s why others dislike you. After 20 years of serving the public, I’ve met a fair amount of people lacking enough introspection to realize…

  • Drawing Love to Yourself

    Hey Occulties,  So since I’m assuming this is my last post before my mega sale ends (and I have some awesome people I have worked for before as well as new folks and all of y’all are a dream to work for,) I will take from sales what the current trends are and while it…

  • Love and Love Spells: Shocking the Target

    Hey Occulties,  I suspect I already regret writing this article, because a few someones will take it too far, but I’d like to briefly touch on a problem which is a relatively common one, and hopefully this will be helpful to those of you casting spells on a target with tenuous results. This is a…

  • Spell to Draw Someone You Desire to You

    Hey Occulties,  Just a quick luv spell tonight. For those new to spellcasting, please do not expect instant results, avoid lust for results, and do not act against your spell by being rude, fighting with the target, or acting crazy and/or off-putting. Desperation and throwing yourself at your target are both off-putting. And as always,…

  • Spell to Draw a Specific Person to You

    Hey Occulties, Since a couple of people decided they were going to drag out consultations (which I don't mean you told me outright you can pay me on x day,) I have a super free night tonight. I could spend that cleaning the house (ewwww,) or writing an article, plus keep in mind that dragging…

  • Spell for a Woman to Attract a Former Lover Back to Her

    Hey Occulties, I don't generally post sex-specific spells (and, alas, it gets even more specific,) but here's one I don't think I've shared.  So, cisgendered heterosexual ladies who still menstruate are going to have the best effect here. If you no longer menstruate due to medical issues or age, this spell may not be for…
