BRAZIL. Brasilia state. Valle do Amanhecer. 1996. "The Valley of Dawn" is the center of the religion of Tia Neiva which practices spiritism and mixes Egyptian, Inca, Maya and Christian rites. Dressed in numerous and elaborate uniforms, the faithfuls called "Jagua" draw spiritual energy from the universe and dispense it to sick patients inside their temple. Two middle class Jagua pray to Mae Iara, the sun goddess.
