Gods n stuff
Above means that it holds control of something, it can change it, it has dominion over it. It's opposed by beneath, outside, and parallel. Beneath means that it is bound by something (that which is above it), outside means that it is separated entirely from something (has no ability to interact and is not affected by it), parallel means that it is alongside something (it's an exception to only itself, it holds some influence and is influenced).
As it concerns the laws of the universe, that which is above is a god, that which is beneath is the material, that which is outside is the unknown, that which is parallel is either the paranormal or the conceptual.
The unknown is truly unknowable, its realm is the outside. A god and the paranormal are knowable if they choose to be known, effectively they're unknowable. They could reside in either the material realm, the outside, or the dreamscape. The material only exists within the material realm and is knowable. The conceptual is theoretically knowable and could exist in either the realm of the dreamscape or the outside.
This is just my conceptualization of these metaphysical concepts so I'll use these terms as needed. Keep in mind that what I'm about to talk about isn't meant to be taken as literal. Now for my own religion. I'll be using Sith Thompson's motif-index classifications and just make up names starting from the reconstruction of Proto-Indo-European. At A0 is the creator, a true god above all. I conceptualize the universe itself and all immortal souls as being god, Olja (olja). Olja split his body and soul to become everything. Life emerged from the body of Olja and souls inhabited that life, Olja experiencing himself.
The main focus from here will be A200-A499. The rest of what could be called "gods" I view more as concepts, which I'll call Idols. They aren't actually gods, just ideas, values, concepts, &c. that we think of and place importance on, that importance being reverent, irreverent, or fearful. This importance leads to personification and real affects on our lives, how we view and interact with the world.

A220, A260-A270 : the idol of the sun, day, light, and dawn Anu (bhānús).
A240, A250 : the idol of the moon, night, stars, and dusk Dun (mḷdus).
A250 : the idols of the countless stars, too many to list so an encompassing name of Sera-Ad (sterlā ātō).
A300.1-A310.1, A496 : the idol of winter, the underworld, the afterlife, where souls go to rest, and the solemn embrace of death Herma (ermi).
A311, A463, A471, A487 : the idol of fate, prophecy, death, acceptance, he who leads souls to Herma, the conductor of the dead and guide of souls Sami (sāmis).

A405, A418-A430, A434-A435, A478, A490-A495, A498 : the idols of nature, the various caretakers of the natural world, disease, and extensions of Sola, too many to list so an encompassing name of Soro-Ad (sṛwos ātō).

A431, A475 : the idol of love, commitment, fertility, and marriage Kami (kāmi).

A440-A446, A452-A454 : the idol of animals, hunting, and husbandry Aisha (aisō).
A450-A451 : the idols of artisans, trades and professions, too many to list so an encompassing name of Emed-Ad (wēmos ātō).
A455-A456 : the idol of sailing and fishing Shisa ((sí)stāmi).
A457, A489.3 : the idol of thieves, deception, and fear Kota (skotos).
A462, A465, A489.4, A491 : the idol of beauty, the arts, learning, laughter, and travelers Feira (bheidhō).

A480 : the idol of oaths Ere (wēros).
A481-A482 : the idol of intoxication and gambling Leif (leibs).
And then from outside of it there would be idols that come into being as a result of modern times, where the motifs focus on pre-modern. I say idols plurally but I can only think of one.
The idol of technological advancement and the internet Argon (árgṇtom).
And then some that could exist and have existed that I didn't see between A200 and A499.
The idols of games, too many to list so an encompassing name of Gaudi-Ad (gaudhjom ātō).
The idol of politics and bureaucracy Ilna (glínāmi).
The idol of revolution and change Meja (mejno).
The idols of ideologies, too many to list so an encompassing name of Klio-Ad (kḷjō ātō).
Well, that's it, that's the post for now.
