Questions and answers

When is the next new Moon?

The date and exact time are at the top of this page, followed by every new Moon until 2030. Times are in UTC; the new Moon happens at the same instant everywhere, so the local date can differ by a day.

Can you see the new Moon?

No. At new Moon the Moon is between the Earth and the Sun and its lit side faces away from us. The thin crescent usually becomes visible after sunset one or two evenings later.

What sign is the new Moon in?

The new Moon is always in the same sign as the Sun, because the Sun and Moon line up at that moment. In astrology the new Moon is traditionally a time for beginnings and setting intentions.

What is a black Moon?

An informal name for the second new Moon in a calendar month (the new-Moon counterpart of a blue Moon). Months are counted here in UTC.

Why is a solar eclipse always at new Moon?

A solar eclipse happens when the Moon passes directly between the Sun and Earth, which can only happen at new Moon, and only when the new Moon is close to one of the Moon’s nodes. That is why there are just two to five solar eclipses a year.

Moon phases decide a lot on night-sky trips: a dark new Moon is best for stars and the northern lights, a full Moon lights up snowy landscapes. Our sister travel site OndaTravel explains how Moon phases shape night-sky travel (opens in a new tab).
