There are three main ways African religions communicate with the supernatural. Brief description to each is found below.
Supreme God
They worshipped the Supreme God through constant communion with lesser deities and ancestral spirits. This is done by performing libation or sacrifice — offering animals, vegetables, food, flowers and other precious materials.
Divination
This is the term given when consulting to oracular deities. There are a lot of techniques on casting divination, but actual practice is done with small objects e.g. bones, shells, stones, leathers or wood pieces.

Their ideas lead to the creation of laissez-fair capitalism. Ricardo considered that permenent under-class

fundamental to keep the population prosperous and content. They all believed
that natural laws led economic life.
