the two definitively super-agentic divinities i answer to are The Power and The Majority and i'd be happier if i figured out how to propitiate The Majority better

My three year old just found a little figure of Glinda the Good Witch I keep on his bookshelf and started asking something of her; I heard him say “please witch!” I think he may have independently discovered propitiating a goddess.

No special class of persons is set apart for their performance. No special places are set apart for the performance. Desired objects are attained not by propitiating the favor of divine through sacrifice prayer and praise, but by ceremonies of resemblance between rite and effect.
