Thank you everybody for reading all of these questions and answering them if you can...recently, I have been thinking about offerings. I'd like to know about them, and what would make one of the beautiful, storied and strong gods we are bonding with and talking to respond to us and be pleased with us and what would make them not respond to us or worse/perhaps more dangerously get angry at us and resent us. I have read of the many ideas of offerings, like pretty metal things/songs/poems/etc. One of my favorites to offer are special kinds of rum and cake. But say someone were to offer coins, a pretty metal or macrame/some such object/offering. Could it be reused in another, later ritual for another demon? Do they gather energy from them or look at them and enjoy the sights/beauty? Do they/would they know if one was used for another spirit in the past? I used to think (and I don't know WHERE this one came from...) that offerings had to do with the amount of money someone made and therefore what kind and caliber/price of offering someone could afford (in other words the rich people could afford great, expensive, wonderful offerings to please any spirit and poorer people could probably only summon demons who were willing to settle...). I have since learned this is not the case. But I just cannot come up with that many different, to-me-seemingly-appealing ideas of something to present in return to a demon for asking for something. But i sure know the reality is not a matter of "give the God/Demon something in return for her/him doing something for you." But like HP Dietrich says, when and if the time does come to ask assistance, it really IS proper to offer something in return.
Next-I've got a whole envelope box full of sigils. I follow Mrs. Dietrich's instructions to the letter regarding things to do, say and think and meditations to do/bathing and use my black mirror, which I have consecrated with the ritual and sigil of Ashtaroth and dressed with Yuza Yuza oil-but-is it dangerous to meditate on multiple sigils at once to get in touch with more than one God/Demon at once? Are there Demons who dislike another demon or who resent sharing an area?
Thanks for reading and have a good day.

Don't forget that the Gods are not on earth right now. So material things are not really needed, unless you used your creativity to create them and they're dedicated to the Gods. For example a picture of a statue of a God you created on your own or even a poem. They actually like these offerings not because of the material value, but they do appreciate your creativity and dedication to create something from Them.

Generally, the things we offer are non-material things. One thing that helps and pleases them most is spiritual warfare, i.e. vowing to fight against their enemies. We live in dark times where the enemy has control and this is undoubtedly one of the best things you can offer to them, your mind and some of your time to enlighten xians and/or fight against the enemy lies spiritually/magickally.

"Are there Demons who dislike another demon or who resent sharing an area?"

Why would they do that? They are united with eachother, and disunity among them is frowned, much like how they like Satanists to be united.

Thank you so much! I'll expand from the Voodoo-inspired rum-and-cake offerings and go more towards the spiritual/mental/magickal. Thanks again!
