About the event
What is a New Moon?
A New Moon occurs when the Moon is positioned between the Earth and the Sun, rendering it invisible from our perspective because the side facing Earth is not illuminated. This marks the beginning of a new lunar cycle, roughly every 29.5 days.
Influence on Nature:
Tides: New Moons contribute to spring tides, with the lowest low tides and highest high tides due to the alignment of the Sun, Earth, and Moon.
Animal Behavior: The darkness of the New Moon can change the behavior of nocturnal animals, making hunting or mating more secretive or challenging.
Plant Growth: Some gardening traditions suggest planting certain crops during the New Moon phase, believing the increased gravitational pull aids in seed germination.
