Animistic rituals celebrate the workings of the spirits that animate the world, or make them visible thereby reinforcing their existence. When spirits die or pass away ceremonies and rituals can be held for their passing as well. Human beings are also spirits included under animistic notion, as well as certain flowers, rocks, anything the animistic mind groups under 'having spirit', although all things would fall under a larger spirit. Anything that can be grouped under 'spirit' and has not yet been grouped under 'spirit'.
Animist rituals vary widely depending on the culture and belief system, but generally involve connecting with the spirits of nature, ancestors, and animals through ceremonies, dances, offerings, and prayers. These rituals are often performed to maintain harmony with the natural world, seek guidance, and honor the spiritual beings believed to inhabit the world around us.
