  abstract = {{T}he {S}eme of {B}urkina {F}aso attribute all the problems they encounter to interventions from the invisible world. {T}hey identify the cause and the appropriate remedy (blood sacrifice) through divination. {T}he diviner, called by the invisible, is intimately linked to a bush spirit through an initiation. {T}his bush spirit becomes his divination assistant and thus his intermediary to the invisible world. {T}he {S}eme have developed particularly precise representations of the invisible world. {T}he successive sequences that make up the divinatory rite were identified in the first part of this study. {T}his second part links each of these sequences observable in the visible world, to simultaneous actions performed by beings and powers in the invisible world. {I}t presents the notions mobilised by the {S}eme in their divinatory practice, notably that of the human person and of individual destiny. {S}eme divination is an exercise in figuration of the invisible of great virtuosity.},
