Building a personal relationship with your chosen deities is a deeply enriching practice. Start by exploring different pantheons to find a deity that resonates with you. Meditate on their attributes and myths, and pay attention to signs and intuitive connections. Deepening this connection involves studying the deity's lore and mythology, engaging in regular prayer or meditation, and performing devotional acts that align with their domain.
