The God, in the form of Puxatawny Phil, wiggles his way out of the hole. The Goddess Hilda Hedgewitch comes forth, bearing a large umbrella to shade Phil. The four black-clad Crones toss off their black robes to reveal white garments underneath. The servant of the South walks around the circle, lighting the waiting white candles held by the participants. The circle is soon glowing with the light of many white candles.
Black candles are extinguished and buried in the earth mound along with the black garments.
The Crone has passed away. The time of the Maiden is here. Come back soon and see the flowers. We'll make you the best sand castle ever seen. Y'all come back now, hear.
