The new moon

What it changes

The low point of the cycle. Nothing is visible yet, so nothing can be judged yet: this is when you begin without showing.

What it is

Sun and Moon occupy the same degree. The Moon is invisible — no light comes back to us.

See the calculated example
Diagram: the Moon circles Earth in a month, and the Sun always lights the half facing it. What we see of it from Earth, on the right, depends on the angle between the Moon and the Sun.
