Ancient Psions practiced a form of ancestor worship, communing with the divine spirits of the dead through a Y-goblet that "cupped their spirits" and poured out their souls into new Psions.

In prehistory, long before the Psion species joined the Cabal, a group of exceptionally powerful Psions known as the God-Thoughts dominated the species with their psychic abilities. They destroyed the Y-goblet faith for seeing divinity in every common person. Its suppression was so brutal that while the faith survived to the present, its practitioners still feared discovery and worshiped only in secret.<ref>'''Bungie (2019/6/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of Opulence]], [[Lore:Confessions|Confessions]]: [[Lore:Confessions#Entry VIII|Entry VIII]]''</ref> | In prehistory, long before the Psion species joined the Cabal, a group of exceptionally powerful Psions known as the God-Thoughts dominated the species with their psychic abilities.

This tradition has continued among at least some Psions until relatively recently; the Psion [[Acasia]], who came to the Sol System at some point post-[[Collapse]] and joined the [[Acolytes of Nezarec]], lost her partner when he was abducted by a group of Psions to be tortured as a sacrifice to Nezarec. | ||
