  Mikeli
In ancient Latvia, Mikeli was a festival held on September 22 - September 24, during the dzelzs nedela meaning "the week of iron." The holiday was sacred for both Mikelis and and Jumis.
Jumis, represented by a double-headed stalk of grain, was said to be hiding in the last of the unharvested fields.
These last stalks are tied with special twine and placed in a barn, separate from the rest of the harvest.

Jumis crosses his arms over his abdomen so that his hands are positioned by his hips, his fingers rigid as if to cup something.
Jumis uses this power when he sees someone in dire need of defense or a quick pick-me-up, and the energy he lends his target only lasts for the perceived threat that provoked Jumis to use his power.
Jumis can create an actual shield to defend his target against an attack and while his ally is under it, he can lend the person a burst of energy when s/he is flagging and weak.

 Jumis
In Latvian mythology, Jumis is an agriculture and fertility god.
He is associated with "double-plants," such as two corn stalks or trees which have grown together and share a trunk or stem.
Another ritual, called Jumja kersana[?], involves a procession, carrying some grains that symbolize a "captured" Jumis to the home, thereby ensuring the following year's harvest will be at least as successful.

Jânis was sometimes referred to as a son of Dievs; he was apparently a fertility god.

In addition, Jumis in Latvian beliefs is a field spirit and embodiment of fertility.
That is, upon the completion of reaping, a Jumis-clump was left uncut, the ears were tied in a knot, bent to the ground, and weighed down with a stone or surrounded with soil.

Jumis is his absolute favorite target, and though he always gets in trouble with the Captain, that's never stopped him.
If Baides is of a mood to speak to his buddies beyond the grave, or if he just wants to pointedly ignore you, he'll go off somewhere and draw a circle around himself so he can be alone for a while with the spirits of the dead.
It is a similar relationship with his Captain -- sure, Jumis is his arch-nemesis, but Baides does respect him as a human being, and he is rather like a bossy older brother.

 Dieva deli
Their number is not clear - there are mostly two of them, sometimes three, sometimes no number is indicated, thus leaving just the concept.
There is also a tendency to refer to some deities as Dieva deli (such as Janis and Jumis), because this is not a stable phenomenon although there are texts attributing this name especially to Janis.
Also the relations with Christianity are not clear enough, because it is indiscernible whether there were such concepts before Christianity came to Latvia.

The grain from the Junis-clump was rubbed out of the ears and scattered in the tilled soil, thus ensuring that the strength and spirit of the harvest was directed back into the Mother Earth, so that it could appear again in the new sowing.
These last stalks were tied with special twine, taken home in a procession and placed in a barn, separate from the rest of the harvest, symbolizing a ‘captured’ Jumis, thereby ensuring the following year’s harvest would be at least as successful.

Usins would stuff some grass in there and along the ground so that the leakage wouldn’t be bad enough for anyone to notice, and RUN off to tell Jumis that there’s a leak in the dam.
For example, if Jumis throws out a plan to sneak into somewhere by constructing a large, wooden badger and concealing some sentries inside, and asks Usins how he thinks it would be best to do that, he’ll answer it accurately.

Beyond this, Lithuanian dialects with teu, etc., and Latvian dialects with ta v, etc., indicate substratic western elements in Lithuanian and sub- or adstratic eastern elements in Latvian since, I believe, e-grade is more typical of West Baltic while o-grade is more typical of East Baltic.
