Once, humans called on supernatural beings. They had got themselves into situations that became problematic for them, so according to their time and place, called on angels, spirits, djinni, peri, kachinas, numen, fairies, sprites, pythons, silvans, thunderbirds -- they have been called by many names. These incorporeal beings that can become visible or audible to humans must reside in our psyche, if not in our reality, for the idea of them persists in all times and many different cultures. They seem to offer a different view, something hidden until they point it out. A guiding force or influence. If nothing more they are a part of the symbolic mystery of an interior life of many cultures.
