The best reason is that it's another one of those "mistakes."

I'm sure that was an early magical dispersal for old Wizard Oz, and he might have thought then that the power might return to him, or that it would continue to move to new Maidens like his Aura moved to his reincarnations.

Perhaps at the time he hoped dispersing his power might end the curse without first achieving his quest to defeat Salem. (Live enough times without succeeding, and you might just want it to end!)
