Divine spirit magic is a form of magic that draws its power from the divine realm. It involves tapping into the energy and guidance of divine beings or deities to manifest magical effects. This type of magic is often associated with healing, purification, and protection. In many cultures and spiritual traditions, divine spirit magic is considered sacred and is performed by priests, priestesses, or other individuals who have a deep connection with the divine. It requires a strong faith and a sincere devotion to the divine beings involved. These practitioners are seen as the intermediaries between the mortal realm and the divine realm, channeling the energy and blessings of the deities for the benefit of others.
Full or Partial Caster:
Honestly? Either one would be happy. Full casters because they have the talents. And Partial casters� um� Well, there�s not much to worry about on the caster level side of things. There are some nice Sense talents that would be nice for anyone to pick up.
Post-Review Analysis Divination is a surprisingly strong social sphere even stronger at it than the mind sphere , with some obvious scouting tracking ability if you really invest, and have a consistent enemy type alignment.

Cynical divination sphere
Preamble: This is easily my most ignored sphere. Not most hated. Not least powerful. Just most ignored. Perhaps undeservedly so. I don�t often get to play with SoP-proficient DMs, so bringing a wall of text as the base ability is rarely a great introduction. Also, it wasn�t very usable without major investment.
Post-Review Analysis:
Divination is a surprisingly strong social sphere (even stronger at it than the mind sphere), with some obvious scouting/tracking ability (if you really invest, and have a consistent enemy type/alignment).
Flex Talents:
Blindfolded Oracle vs Gaze attacks.
Divine Information to reroll knowledge checks.
Detect Secrets if you expect secret doors / passageways.

Looks like, for once, I had a mostly accurate idea of what the sphere was good for. E.g., taking a drawback to get a better Sense talent is. kind of a no-brainer.
(Edit: apparently I'm crazy and there is no such drawback, you're stuck with the crappy Sense you start with. But yeah, IF such a drawback existed it'd be a no-brainer. which may be why it doesn't exist.)
Hadn't considered the socialite applications of some of those Divine talents though. That's extremely interesting. Maybe not relevant for the game I should be getting into soon, but if I ever land in an intrigue game, I'll absolutely keep this in mind.

One tactic I've used to get around that is focusing on Conjuration instead, and making a mage companion who goes full into the Divination sphere for me - which as noted, doesn't suffer much from having lower caster level with it.

These rituals are performed with great reverence and often in sacred spaces such as temples or altars. One of the primary purposes of divine spirit magic is healing. Practitioners call upon the divine energies to restore balance and harmony to the body, mind, and spirit of those in need. This can include physical healing, emotional healing, or spiritual healing. Divine spirit magic is also often used for protection and warding off negative or harmful energies. By invoking the divine, practitioners can create barriers or shields to keep out malevolent forces. Divine spirit magic is not limited to one specific belief system or religion. It exists in various forms and practices around the world. In some traditions, it may be closely tied to a specific deity or pantheon, while in others, it may be more fluid and adaptable. Despite the cultural and religious differences, the underlying concept remains the same: harnessing the power of the divine for positive change and transformation. Overall, divine spirit magic is a powerful and sacred form of magic that taps into the energy of the divine realm. It is a practice that requires a deep connection with the divine and a commitment to using this power for the benefit of others. With its emphasis on healing, purification, and protection, it offers a spiritual path that can bring balance and harmony to those who practice it..

"Divine spirit magic" was a letdown for me. The writing style was choppy and the dialogue felt forced. The world-building was confusing and there were many elements that didn't make sense. I found myself struggling to stay engaged with the story and I ended up skimming through most of it. I was hoping for a unique and captivating read, but unfortunately, this book fell flat. I would advise others to approach it with caution.
