“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.

    Hi Occulties, See I told you I just had writer’s brain constipation, aka “writers block,” but I took some mental fiber, and I’m feeling much better. 🙂 HOWEVER, expect some rather off stuff to come out…cleansing the brain’s bowels means I’m probably going to be posting some odd stuff over the next few weeks that’s…

  • Mama Cat’s Pearls of Wisdom #23

    A picture of Michael the Archangel placed over the door of your home will help keep troublesome spirits and those who would harm you away. When you place the image, you should say the St Michael Prayer: “St Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle. Be our protection against wickedness and snares of the devil.…

  • Just the Basics

    OMG ENOUGH ALREADY!!! I am gonna have to call the Pope and tell him to get in his Pope-mobile (that bubble car,) and round all of you up and answer your 11.5 TRILLION questions about saints. Goodness gracious, knowing Hoodoo or a Catholic background does NOT make me an expert on every Catholic saint, and…

  • St. Expedite for Requests You Need Taken Care of FAST

    UPDATE Nov 28, 2011 – er…I’m not sure where the idea that saints grant wishes like genies came in, but they do not. ST EXPEDITE (and other saints) ARE NOT WISH GRANTING GENIES. Please keep your requests to St Expedite and other saints within your sphere of availability. For example, if you do not even…
