  You have to save the document node you want to use into a variable:

    <xsl:variable name="root" select="/"/>
    <xsl:for-each select="$ana">
      <xsl:value-of select="."/>
      <xsl:text>:</xsl:text>
      <xsl:value-of select="$root//category[@id = .]/catDesc"/>
    </xsl:for-each>

  BTW, such kind of XPath expression is in general good candidate for
XSLT keys.
