Poseidon is the ancient Greek god of the seas and horses. One praying to Poseidon may need his assistance/ expertise in their everyday life-- just like praying to god. However, most people are not practicing belivers in the Greek gods it is purely mythology. In modern times the only reason i could really think of would be in performing a ritual or cleansing spell-- summoning power from the elements and their god and things of that sort.
