The phase of the moon when the side of the moon facing the earth is the side that is not illuminated by sunlight.
The time or date when the longitude of the Moon is the same as that of the Sun, so that the two are as nearly lined up as possible. At new Moon, the lit side of the Moon is the same as the farside, and if we could see the Moon, it would be completely dark, as only the unlit side would face us. Hence, we see no Moon at all.
Can mean the Dark Moon or the First Crescent.
(new moon). The "new moon" is the precise instant when the moon in conjunction with the sun. The event cannot be seen from earth. A conjunction is the condition or state of being in the same celestial longitude. This places the three spheres (earth, moon, and sun) in a single plane but not necessarily in direct alignment. The mean time between a new moon and the next is 29.530588 days.
The Moon when it lies in the same direction as the Sun and the beginning of a cycle of lunar phases. The New Moon rises and sets with the Sun.

a phase of the moon when it is not visible from Earth
a power time, an opportunity to set new intentions which will be amplified by the energetic pull of the waxing Moon
a totally dark moon and is usually unobservable, therefore, the beginning of a new month was determined by calculation about two weeks before it took place
The moon is deemed new when it cannot be observed from any place on earth, essentially because the sun is behind it (an eclipse of the sun occurs when the new moon is actually aligned with the sun).
When the Moon is in the same side of the sky as the Sun, and only its dark side is visible from the Earth.
When only a sliver of the Moon is visible; beginning of the Moon's cycle
This phase occurs when the Moon is not illuminated by direct sunlight. It is invisible to the naked eye. The Sun's glow hides (embraces) the Moon now. This phase is also called the "dark of the Moon" when the Sun and Moon are exactly conjunct. This is the time when our soul goes into deep meditation and aligns with the inspiration of the Nirmanakayas. A new cycle begins and what is conceived at this time occurs deep within our being. A potential is enlivened and the seed is formed. The New Moon transits about the same time as the Sun ... it rises and sets with the Sun.
The Moon as it appears on Earth when it is positioned between Earth and the Sun at the beginning of a cycle of lunar phases. The new moon rises and sets with the Sun.
A sun and moon conjunction, or first sighting of the new lunar crescent.
The time of new Moon is when the apparent longitude of the Moon and the Sun are identical.
when the entire lighted half of the moon faces directly away from Earth.
the phase in which the moon is in the same direction as the sun in Earth’s sky, so it is unilluminated and invisible
A phase of the moon when the lunar planet is between the earth and the sun and the dark side of the moon is facing the earth. A phase in magik that is used for personal growth, healing and blessing of new projects or ventures.
