  • Most Obsessives Can Breate a Sigh of Relief!

    Listen kiddos,

    Apparently some of you didn’t thoroughly read this post, and thought I was outing a client as a nuthatch. That kid was never my client would be the first point to make, and the second being that I never named him by name or gave his email addy.

    I have never published a paying client’s email, ever. I have never published a “used to pay me and then became a money drain” client’s email for that matter. I have not published any client’s name.

    I do not just put out whacked-out emails I get online for all to see – it takes a level of abuse for me to even consider it, and then it would still be less than a HALF OF ONE PERCENT of the whacked out emails I get (if that,) making it up here. :S

    So….while most of you privately were like “Whoa, that guy’s totally and entirely insane! He just proved he’s obsessed and nuts by what he wrote,” a few were concerned I’d publish their emails.

    Its about as likely that I would do that as it is that I would manage to successfully run for and win the position of the President of the USA, kiddos. I realize only three of you said this to me, and that more than 10 times that number seem to agree with that actions (or so the emails I recieved would say to me,) but if some of you are creating this scenario in your heads, than more of you must be as well, right? Well, probably.

    I’m a lot nicer than you’re giving me credit for. 😉

    Now, if everyone can wipe the sweat off of their brow, I’m tryin’ to get you a spell/occult post up today. 😉

  • To Attract Others to You (in a sexy way, heh heh heh)

    Hi Occulties,

    So getting back on topic, I know a few of you have asked me for a good attraction spell for you as of recently. 😀 So let’s get ‘er done and get this one up!

    You will need:

    A square of red flannel approximately 4.5in x 4.5in (approx 11.4cm x 11.4cm) OR a pre-made red flannel bag
    Star anise
    Rose petals (pink and/or red,)
    Damiana
    Jasmine flowers-dried
    Hibiscus flowers-dried
    Cotton string – about the length of your arm from armpit to wrist
    A small but strong magnet (you can get cheap little neodymium magnets on eBay and at science and toy stores, by the way,)
    Semen gathered from focused masturbation** (for use by male practitioners,) menstrual blood (for female practitioners who still menstruate,) or cervical/sexual secretions brought forth by focused masturbation** (for female practitioners who no longer menstruate due to medical reasons.)
    Your choice of ONE lusty/love-attraction oil, for example: Kiss me quick, Flame of Desire/Fire of Love, Attraction, Cleo May (for ladies or gay men,) etc. If you are unsure if an oil is suitable, please contact me, and I will tell you. 🙂IMG_0729

    **Focused masturbation is the process of masturbating while keeping your focus on your desired outcome of a spell. For example, in this spell, you might keep in your minds’ eye while masturbating, that many men or women are attracted to you (or both if that’s your thing,) and keep this thought in your head until you reach climax. Please keep in mind (and pre-emptively, I hear the snickering already, lol,) do not use “tools” to masturbate with if using masturbation to ritually gather materials as this will send the energies into the tool and negate the energy from the secretions themselves. It should be noted that vibrating objects damage the sensitivity of any area of the body with long term use, so you should probably avoid them altogether as is. That being said, please keep your vibrating item/inflatable doll/sex-flashlight/dildoes/sex toy use to yourself, because I don’t want to know. Ew.

    Okay, now that we’re done telling people how to masturbate, let’s take a moment to shake any sophomoric desires to giggle about what I just wrote off of ourselves… (teehee teehee, giggle giggle, snort, giggle.) There, that’s better. X-)

    And moving on to the spell! 😀

    So, to start, you should soak your cotton string in your sexual secretions/menstruum (as much as possible – if you don’t have enough fluids to soak the whole thing, this is fine, just get it as soaked as you can,) and put this aside for a few hours in a dry place to allow the secretions to dry into the string. Sometimes this process is speeded up by laying the item on a paper plate.

    Once your string is dry, gather the rest of the above mentioned ingredients, and we shall begin the spell…mwahahahaha. 😉

    Place your flannel cloth down, and spread it with your fingers so it is laying flat. Take a pinch of each herbal ingredient with your left hand and place this into your right hand. I realize that you will get more of some ingredients than others, but 2-5 petals and 2-5 dried flowers of each of the hibiscus and jasmine flowers, a few star anise pods (a full star is un-needed,) and a pinch of damiana herb will do. 🙂 Place your magnet above this, and then cup your hands together, so that they are sealing the herbs between your palm-up right hand and palm-down left hand. Envision red and pink energy flowing down from the universe into your crown and through your right hand, while also envisioning red and pink energy travelling up from the earth, into you and travelling along the same path to your right hand, and send this energy (or envision it,) into the herbs and magnet you are holding. Try to keep a mental image of those of your desired sex (if you are hetero the opposite sex, if you are gay it would be the same sex, and if you are bi – well, if you want both or are seeking a particular partner of a particular sex, either choose one sex, or envision both,) while you transmit this energy into the herbs.

    Still keeping the energy flowing into the herbs and magnet, say, “I draw women/men to me, to find my irresistable romantically and sexually; all women/men who see me desire me, all who come near me hunger after me, all who see me desire me romantically and physically! This magnet draws men/women/people to me by its force, I am desired and wanted, attractive and irresistable!” Now place the herbs and magnet into the center of the flannel square. Place your string in a circle around the herbs (it is okay that it will later lose this formation,) and say as you do so, “I am temping, irresistable, and desirable to all, I am surrounded by an aura of irresistablity and desirability, for all are attracted to me!” If you have chosen a premade bag, you are going to place the herbs into the bag, (all the chanting is the same, hehe,) and then when you need to put the string in while holding it in a circle shape (stuff it in.)

    Now, close the square up to form a bag-like formation – this means you are making sure the items inside will not dump out of the cloth, and that you can use a string to tie around the neck of your “bag,” to make a mojo sack. If you have a premade sack, tie it closed. Please check out this post, where our dear friend Mike Rock helps us on how to tie a mojo bag. 😀 (I LOVE YOU MR ROCK!!!)

    IMG_0707Once you have the bag tied shut, place a few drops of your chosen oil on it, and anoint the bag with it. **You should “feed” the bag by anointing it with this oil approximately once a week, but at least once each 28 days.**

    The easiest method I know of making a bag ready for use is follows – if you have another tradition you prefer to “wake” your mojos, please feel free to go ahead and use it. I pass the bag through salt (rub it on some salt,) for earth (dirt is also suitable, as long is its not graveyard dirt,) I pass it through incense smoke for air, splash spring water, rain water, or natural (river, stream, etc,) water on it for water, then pass it through a flame. Then I breathe through the bag three times, and after the last breath I saw “I awaken thee, do what has been bid of thee, as is my will, so it be.”

    Okay, so maybe its not the easiest method, but its the one I like the best. 😉

    There will be questions, so please contact me if you should have any!

  • Here’s What Happens When You’re an Obsessive Nut Job!

    Thanks to a very psycho reader who has “written two songs about me,” and loved and hated me every day for a long time. I finally told him that if he’s crying when I said “Just let it happen,” and freaking out and writing songs about me, he had to calm down. Here is what he wrote because I want you all to see what happens when you’re too obsessive! 😀

    *****

    Dear Cat,

    As I broke down and cried a little in bed this morning something occurred to me.
    There’s a fine line between obsession and determination.

    Let’s say I go: ”I completely forget about it.”, and they call me for a screentest weeks later…
    My performance might not be true representation of my talents and it might suck.

    They’re gonna take the best and the rest is gonna be forgotten.

    I have to work on my diction, pronunciation, articulation everday.
    Read articles and listen to professional journalists, TV hosts and anchors everday.
    Improve my the way I present myself, my presence, my style. I have to make it raw, natural and compelling.
    I have to spend some time on those things everyday so when they call me, I NAIL IT!

    I work on that, pray, chant and meditate about it then move to something else.
    Study, songwriting, my vocals, this and that.

    That’s how I keep myself in balance. Just because I absolutely want something doesn’t mean I’m obsessing over it.
    One shall not judge too quickly! I work on it the best way I can, then mind other stuff.

    When working with Spirits, I give them all the time in the world.
    There are Spirits I addressed so they help me with different issues I already forgot about! I did not pressure them!

    If nothing happened months and months afterwards… I can’t be blamed for being aggressive and unhealthy about it.
    They either did not hear me or did not do their job properly or just did not care!

    That’s the key! They key is in balance!
    Whenever someone tells me I have to completely forget about anything related to so or so thing I go…
    Yes! I completely forget about the spell, ritual or working itself.
    As for the situation… If I have to work on it on a daily basis (study music, work on my journalism etc.)…
    I can’t say: “Oh! I completely let go of it etc.” I work on it, then I do other things.
    If things don’t progress, then the problem might lie elsewhere.

    Yes, you’re right! I’m kinda anxious about the contest because it’s not the way I planned it.

    As I told you, when it’s a contest everyone is gonna vote for family members, friends, their favourites etc.
    And a Spirit can hardly help with that.

    That makes sense. That’s why I said I’d rather be hired the conventional way but if there’s only one way, so be it!

    I decided to take heed of your word and be much more relaxed, calm and cool about it.
    More confident. Less worried.

    You’re entitled to your opinion. It’s your judgement! But I don’t agree with every single bit of it.
    People tend to use some words and terminology too quickly and they might hurt someone even though it’s not their intention.

    I appreciate you and like you. Therefore, your words got to me a little even though I tried not to be sensitive at all!
    I feel much better now. I realize I have to work on my talents everyday…

    What matters is I stay balanced about it. That’s all!
    I gotta study. I have exams every week. I almost through!

    And thank you for all the advice on your blog! I’m sure many benefit from it! 🙂

    By the way, I wrote two songs a long time before our conversation on the subject…

    *****
    Apparently he didn’t like my relax and have faith in yourself. He didn’t like when I told him (again, as it says all over my blog,) letting go is not forgetting about it, its just not making it a central issue of worry. Don’t overthink it. I was pretty nice. All I said that I felt might have been insulting was that I never found any newscaster to be compelling, and perhaps that sometimes people confuse practice with drilling and that I felt he was drilling himself. Sorry, friend. This is his reply.

    *****

    Going on and on about mental health, psychological problems and obsession! That was obsessive and impressive!

    You’re the one obsessed and you’re fixated on making it a permanent state.
    You sincerly think you’re the Voice of Reason? You’re deluded.

    Hey! My reply was very, very, very kind, polite and civilized!
    But you accused me of attacking you and seeking an argument! What the???

    1st – Your problem is that you do not listen properly.
    You offer spellcasting services. Of course people will come to you with all sorts of situations!

    I was very clear to you. I needed your assistance in an area of my life. Period!
    You’re the one that ASSumed that I was obsessing over it when I was not!

    That was uncalled for! I very kindly told you it’s more complicated than you think but I would try to be more calm and relaxed about it!

    I complimented you for your input on your blog and said I do appreciate you.
    It was all HONEST!

    But you chose to go on obsession craze and I swear to Heaven it’s freaking me out!

    I kindly told you you might hurt people’s feelings when generalizing and using big words too quickly. Just saying: ”Be more calm and relaxed about it and everything will unflod.”, if you THINK (It’s just an assumption!!! You’re not omniscient! LOL!) that stress is what messing things up might have the same effect.

    What did you do? COMPULSIVELY threw obsession around like a maniac that just escaped from asylum…
    And the scariest thing is that you’re convinced that you actually make sense!

    I swear to God YAHWEH Casey Anthony will have a better place than you in Heaven! LOL!

    You PROVED you are RUDE, INSENSITIVE and completely INCONSIDERATE of other people’s feelings. SHAME ON YOU, CAT!

    I did not ask for your pity. I was not expecting it but I was expecting some understanding.
    Someone tells you they shed a FEW tears, that’s it!!! And that’s how you address them!

    You OBSESSIVELY attack them with the same word even more! It’s FUCKING DISGUSTING and VILE!

    I felt bad that morning. That’s okay! It doesn’t imply anything on my mental health!
    I’ve been feeling much better for days now! I’m definitely not gonna feel bad over anything you say ever again since you’re obviously not worth it! No compassion! No empathy!

    2nd – I was not seeking advices from you. I was looking for a hand in making something better but I obviously knocked on the wrong door. Okay!

    I now have the lowdown on you… You seemed nice but I was mistaken.

    I do not like your attitude.

    I’m blaming everyone? I take responsibility for my actions as I’m responsible for my life. IF others are partially or completely responsible for something, I WILL SAY IT! Devil, damn it! And I won’t mince words!

    GROW UP! GET OVER YOURSELF, CAT!
    You’re so caught up in your head that you’ve convinced yourself to be some kind of an angel but you’re nothing else but a holier-than-thou brat! It’s childish! Low-class pride…

    You even criticized what I told you about the way journalists and anchors have to be natural (it should not look fake) and compelling (so people are interested in watching them again in the future).

    You’re out of your mind, girl! It’s pitiful and pathetic. But you see that as some kind of honour!
    You should be ashamed of yourself!
    ******

    LOL, so, in conclusion, if you choose to be obsessed enough to write songs about me, and then stalk me and freak out on me, since we’ve never met and I don’t know you from Adam – which makes it oh, so normal then, right? – then know that I will put you on my blog, and I will tell others like you to

    LEAVE ME THE FUCK ALONE!

    If you don’t like my advice, then just accept its the advice I gave you, and go looking for someone else’s advice. I’m NOT A FUCKING GURU, GODDESS, OR SAINT, and I don’t want to be. I never said I was. I am not a god. I am all about balance, actually, which makes this so much the more funny…I’m not about being too chill or too amped.

    I’m not obsessed with obsession. I could give a flying fuck, but I try to help when I’m asked for my help, and sorry, but if you write fucking songs about me and we’ve never met, it sure as shit says a lot about you. If you have a cry about me and you beg for my help and then tell me my opinion is bullshit – going so far as to tell me I don’t deserve a place in Heaven or what is this Casey person? Who the fuck?…well, good for you. You have mastered the art of having an apopleptic crybaby tantrum. That’s so zen. That’s so mature. That’s great.

    Listen kids, did you want me to do this to you? Cuz if you’re nutty enough to act like this, welcome to the front page of my blog. Stalkers, psychos, and nuts, this is for you.

    As for anyone who REALLY wants my advice – if you don’t like or disagree with what I say, then just thank me for my time instead of flipping out on me, and quietly walk away. Its what I would do if I thought you were giving me bad advice. Attacking someone unneccisarily because the advice they gave doesn’t appeal to you is psycho.

    As Sly and the Family Stone once said “Its the truth that the truth makes them so uptight.” Well, to the writer of these emails, its the truth what I said, and that’s why it upsets you. 😀

    Anyhow, this one has been asked never to contact me again. 🙂 Hopefully kiddo has that good sense.

    As for the rest of you, I’m sorry to have posted this but its the third “fuck you and your fucking advice” I’ve gotten in three weeks. So, fuck you and your fuck you.

    THANK GOD, I also have 23 THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPERB ADVICE letters from the last week and a half. I put them up on my happy wall to remind me there is a reason I do this job. I don’t know who’s right – my haters or those who like me, – but I am thankful to the divine for just having the chance to be of help when I can be, and if I’m not helpful, to at least have the chance to try.

    I am not trying to be a prophet, a messiah, or a leader. I do like helping people, and I do give the best advice I can. Sometimes I hear things that hurt to hear about myself when my friends tell it to me just to be friendly and let me know. At first, maybe I’m defensive, but you know what, that’s what good honest advice can do! It points out what you don’t want to see. If I can take it and accept it, good. I’m just trying to help.

    If you don’t want my help, I don’t give a fuck. If you ask me for my help, I’m thankful to have the opportunity to try, but since I am not God (and never wanted to be,) I am not infalliable. I have said as much on several occaisions. So, if you ask for my opinion, then I will give it to you, and if you ask for me to give you some advice, I’ll give you the best advice I can – but, maybe its not the best out there. I hope it is – goodness knows I’ve been working with all types of people and if what I’m told is true I have helped hundreds of you, so I have experience, but if I’m wrong or don’t give you the best advice, all I can say is I’m human.

    As for this guy? I just told you the truth, and didn’t say what I said to be mean. I didn’t say it to insult you. I said it to help you. Who’s the bigger jackass? I got my pointing finger out, and guess what direction its pointing to…

    Peace,

    ~Cat

    EDITED TO ADD: You know, I am actually thinking that my advice to this fellow was wrong in the sense that omitted that he really has a bad problem with self-control and thinking before acting. Since I also sometimes act on emotion rather than intellect, I do feel for him on that. Hopefully I have far more self-control, of course. So, the problem is obsessiveness, low self-esteem, prizing emotional response over intellect, lack of manners…acting before thinking…. Oh, and also he has the inability to admit to having certain failings.

    So, look, I admit, I was wrong in my advice because I didn’t point all of that out. With a few of those points I avoided saying so because I didn’t want to come off sounding mean.

    Now doubt edited versions of my responses will appear all over the interwebs from this fellow. Doesn’t strike me as the calm or reasonable type. Well, if he wants a fight I guess he can start one. Me? I’m all set, but would defend myself. At this point unless the dead horse (this guy) gets up and kicks me, I feel no need to go about beating it. If it tries to kick me though, I’ll just puree the dead horse! >:)

    EDITED LATER TO ADD – Oops, had to call the police on this nutter. He did email despite the warning! He was never even a client of mine, I just helped him for free for a year. That was a lot of mean shit in graditude for all my help over a year or more! Thanks! LOL! Can you say…obsessive freako?

    EDITED EVEN LATER TO ADD: This isn’t Frater Dantalion, or Fruitspank D or any past person pretending to be someone else, and YES, I know for sure. I thank you for your concern but you are wrong and I can solidly say so. This isn’t Effy D, and I have pictures and full names (and even b-dates now,) of both this kid and Effhole Dandalion so…thanks everyone but Fruitbar D is hopefully history forever (and has been quiet for awhile,) and this kid is recent history (hopefully forever.)

  • Where Did That Go?

    Hello Occulties,

    Just to let everyone know, my nasty-mean rebuttal has been taken down (but saved just in case,) as the offending party did remove my pilfered work from their site. I thank them for that. They did give me the most viable excuse I’ve ever heard for why it was there. That doesn’t make it right, but…. I will leave this post here as a place holder for my other post lest there be a nasty fight a-coming.

    Thank you to St Martha for being there for me and listening to my prayers to let those who would post my work without my permission take the work down with minimal fight. 😀 You are super awesome, and that is why I am devoted to you. 😀 I don’t know if its blasphemous to tell a saint that they rock, but you rock!

  • For Plagiarists, Wouldbe-Copy NinjaCats, and People Thinking of Trying to Pass my Work off as their Own

    Unfortunately, and it comes to my attention regularly enough, some incredibly uncreative and immoral scumbags think its okay to steal my work and try to pass this off as their own. This is not just theft of my photography, but also theft of my articles which are ORIGINAL and authored by me. Most of the spells here are also my ORIGINAL spells.

    First off, let’s reward you who are those informing on plagiarists and thieves, I offer a FREE THIRTY MINUTE READING, or a PayPal payment of $25 for successfully locating a plagiarist. Since so many of you have voluntarily brought down those who steal from me, I figure you deserve a reward. Please contact me immediately with the following details of the site where you have located my original work being stolen:

    *Site URL, starting with http://
    *Outline where you believe the plagiarism is.
    *Point out on my site where you have found a creepily similar or exact replica of what this person stole from me.
    *Give me your proper contact email

    Action against plagiarists is taken immediately. I use all resources at my legal and my occult-style disposal. 😀

    To those unethical enough to steal from me:

    *I will locate you. It isn’t difficult. I have programs for this, a service to do this for me, and also a hoarde of readers who are offered a reward for reporting you. 🙂

    *All my work IS legally protected, – please know if its recognizable as my work, you must either PROPERLY ANNOTATE IT THROUGH BIBLIOGRAPHY AS MINE AND OBTAIN MY PERMISSION FOR ITS USE, or suffer all consequences that theives such as yourself deserve. Copyright is EASILY ENFORCABLE on the internet.

    *If you refuse to remove the items in question, not only will I persue you through all legal and magical means possible, I will be sure to let everyone know who’s an unethical and uncreative little thief – YOU!

    *I make it my personal mission in life to torture and harm anyone who would steal or plagiarize me… I use only legal means, too, so there would be nothing you would do about it. I don’t have mercy. 😀 So, think about that before you try being an uncreative piece of shit trying to rip me off!

    Remember, if its something which is a perfect replica of my work, or even something recognizable as my work (and er, changing a few words isn’t usually good enough. It must be entirely restated in your own way and not resemble my work in any feasible sense,) you could be guilty of plagiarism or copyright theft in the case of my photos.

    If you steal my work, my writing or my photos, I will get you. 😀 You don’t want to know what happens when I catch you, but as a hint, it makes you pay me lots of money and you suffer a lot.

    Mentos are the tooth-taker. I have proof.
    Mentos
    Note the filling. I’ll be into the dentist on Tuesday, maybe for a filling, probably for a root canal. At least it was the last Mento who pulled half my tooth off – and yes, they were good Mentos.

  • See, I Told You So!

    In an amusing turn of events, I manifested complaining people by complaining about people complaining, as well as manifesting negativity about manifestation coming out like a bad stink from a bog by bringing it up in this post. See, I told you the Universe rewards complainers with more to complain about! Your old friend, Cat is now the living proof of that. I had actually posted that post as sort of a “you’re all letting yourselves devolve into negative behaviors without noticing,” sort of thing…but I see I just manifested more of what was really driving me bats today. 😉 Sooooo, hehe, there you go. I have now proven my own theory by driving more of what I was complaining of to my very own self by complaining of it.

    While this is truly unpleasant (again, that was sort of meant as a nudge in the opposite direction, but whatever,) its nice to see I have a nice example for all of you here. 😀

    Let us all try to have a more positive Tuesday, shall we?

  • Here’s Something to Think About

    Hey Occulites,

    You know what subjects I hate, and what makes me want to start throwing things at people who can’t absorb said subjects? Thinking it to death and not letting it go.

    For example, at least 50 times on any given week, I hear this little chestnut: “I’m not thinking it to death/not letting go, I’m just worried that….” Where you see those periods add one of many options…here, I’ll give you a few. 😉 1. the manifestation is too slow, 2. my target is too stubborn, 3. that I’m too worried about being worried, 4. that God/The Universe hates me and won’t give me what I want, 5. That my target will never show me how they feel… etc, etc, etc.

    Oh for the love of meat and potatoes, WHAT THE F*#%!

    You just said you were entirely lacking faith in yourself, your spell, and often worried about some past factor, if not complaining about some other factor (usually something to do with why you FEAR your spell won’t manifest, or about which is outside your control…say a planetary transit,) so you are definitely offending on the thinking to death/not letting go level of things.

    Try having a little faith in yourself and in your spell. You might find you are actually having faster success. The next time the little negative thing inside you goes off screaming out inward doubts and freak outs, just still it and ignore it.

    You are your own worst enemy if you fall into this sort of behavior regularly…if you want to keep the failure going, just keep worrying and being negative. Its obviously what you feel is the best for you, that being more to worry about and complain about.

    The funniest thing is I have created people who fear thinking things to death and that is how they grow negativity to kill their own spell… That really takes a lot of work to actually grow another type of negativity and pessimism to create an even worse situation for yourself. Bravo. (That would be sarcasm.)
