Ah, but Proclus tells us: "All things are in all things, but each according to its proper nature" (Elements of Theology, prop. 93)
On this principle of "all in each" (Greek: panta en pasin), I strongly recommend Edward Butler's short, 4-page article, "Polycentric Polytheism," which is far and away the most accessible thing Edward has ever published.
To quote one of the key claims there (which is an application of the "all in each" principle): "The Gods, as ultimate individuals, include everything — even each other."
