The Romans believed that the gods communicated with humans through various signs and omens, such as the flight patterns of birds, unusual weather phenomena, and the behavior of animals. They practiced augury, interpreting these signs to gain insights into the will of the gods. Additionally, rituals, sacrifices, and prayers were conducted to appease the gods and seek their guidance. Dreams and prophetic visions were also considered a means through which divine messages could be conveyed.

The prevailing belief among the Romans in regard to the gods was that the gods favored Rome and they would continue to favor Rome as long as the Romans respected and worshiped them with the proper sacrifices and rituals. This attitude toward the gods was not only for the state gods, but it trickled down into the attitudes towards the family gods and even an individual's personal god.
