The New Moon occurs when the Sun and Moon are conjunct in the same zodiac degree. This phase represents beginnings, fresh starts, and setting intentions. In astrology, the New Moon symbolizes a seed moment — a time to initiate projects, plant new ideas, and align inner will (Moon) with outer purpose (Sun). It is often associated with renewal, clarity of direction, and the start of a new monthly cycle.
Astrologers suggest using the New Moon to focus on goals, affirmations, and actions that can grow over the following lunar phases. The house placement in the natal or transit chart reveals the specific life area where new beginnings are emphasized.
