TOPSHOT - Devotees of the Vale do Amanhecer religious community make their way to a ceremony at their temple in Vale do Amanhecer (Sunrise Valley), a community on the outskirts of Planaltina, 50 km from the Brazilian capital, Brasilia, on December 31, 2018. - This eclectic community holds its most important ritual of the year on Labour Day to honour the mediums who communicate with good and bad spirits. The group combines a range of religious practices, including Christian and Hindu, with symbols borrowed from the Incas and Mayans, as well as a belief in extraterrestrial life and intergalactic travel. With some 600 temples throughout Brazil, Portugal, Germany, Japan, Bolivia, Uruguay and the United States, the religious movement claims to have 800,000 members. (Photo by Carl DE SOUZA / AFP)
