Does this make me a polytheist?

I don't think anything in actual existence is worthy of worship other then the Creator but I do believe God shows partial differing visions of him to mystics, different "hues" of his light, and that there is perhaps infinite such visions, and all these visions show a glory that if you multiply by infinity, they would be worthy of worship and God appears in garbs of these visions.
God never appears in full form but in garbs and behind veils. He always appears behind veils and the veil is the very glory shown that doesn't show the rest.
I don't believe we get the same image of the divine, I believe every soul orients towards a veil, and that no soul can get the vision of ultimate oneness. I think that station is impossible to see.
I think this veil also consists part of our identity, and hence, we all have our own god, and god is worshiped indirectly through them.
I also think that some veils are superior to others, and some veils can have imperfections and be tainted as well.
I don't think it's possible to have absolute vision of the Divine. We can only get visions that are more close to the divine then others. Still, the way we are imperfectly created, the veil we take on, we tend to believe it's superior and will belittle veils that are not on the same page.
We think our veil is the whole of the glory and we have it, but really, it's just a veil.
Our god we worship is not the true God, it's a veil, a pointer, a descent of glory, a partial limited perspective. The true God cannot be worshiped but is rather unknown and unseen.
