“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.

  • One of Karma’s more recent posts

    To all of you who think I can fart out a million dollars because I wiggle my nose to make it happen, or think I’m enough of a low life to kill a child in the womb, or who think I sit here all day in my mansion drinking margaritas instead of sometimes waiting for…

  • Questions You’ve Asked Me: February 21, 2013 Edition

    Dear Occulties, I beg my long-term-reader’s forgiveness here. Apparently several new readers are really quite incapable of going through the archives, so I am no doubt going to repeat myself on old topics. 😛 The following represents what I keep getting in my inbox and comments section (on multiple articles) for questions lately. Q: I…

  • Realistic Goals and Things To Consider

    Hi Occulties, ***RANT WARNING*** As many of you may have guessed, I often get some weird requests for help in my email…for example, a popular one goes a bit like this: “I want to reconcile my ex I broke up with 5 months ago, and make them marry me!” (note: often the relationship being spoken…
