And the Red Goddess falls in this how? Lunar Magic is certainly accessible in all 3 forms, but it doesn't seem to have an option to switch (although one might suspect the Goddess herself was capable of such a feat, I don't know).

Now THAT's interesting. I really couldn't quite figure out why it was called a common religion, since mixing of multiple otherworlds in a pantheon's mythology is hardly uncommon. (i.e. Heortlings have spirits as part of their common mythology) The fact that the use of "common" as a stop gap for Mystical because adequate mystical rules aren't there yet is interesting.
I presume this is not the case for all common religions, of course.
