I wondered what your thoughts or experiences are on fetichism [Note the spelling I'm using, to differentiate from er- stockings & suspenders fetishism etc!]

I wondered because I've obtained a few "Fetiches" [Sacred figures] of certain tribal spirits of another culture, which certainly seem to be "charged" with power. Also, when I give them their recommended offerings, [e.g. red wine which one of them traditionally likes] - the substances left at the figures' feet soon seem to be changed, as if the sweetness and alcohol is "sucked out" of them. A taste test shows they're definitely different after being offered. This is not my imagination, I've repeatedly tested this alongside standard bottles of the same stuff.
Somewhat eerie maybe! But to me, it would indicate the spirits are there and apparrently accepting the gifts.

Any comments or experiences yourselves?
