The Disempowered Stage of Religion

In a culture like this, imagine if a bunch of your cows are sick, they have some sort of disease. What's your first thought? Well, obviously the God of livestock, the forces of livestock, I must have wronged them in some way. Who can help me do whatever magic I gotta do to keep the forces on my side? Notice by the way, we are firmly and pre-rational. So you can see in cultures like this, the shaman, the witch doctor, sometimes the village elder, the who can give me the potion, the hex, the formula.
