New Moon on . The illuminated surface of the Moon is 0%. Lunar cycle is 1 day young.
* The exact date and time of this New Moon phase is on 7 November 2067 at 00:14 UTC.
The moon rises at sunrise and sets at sunset. It's part facing the Earth is completely in shadow.

Main moon phases of the following lunar cycle.
Moon is passing about ∠8° of ♏ Scorpio tropical zodiac sector.
Next Full Moon is the Beaver Moon of November 2067 after 14 days on 20 November 2067 at 23:50.
There is high New Moon ocean tide on this date. Combined Sun and Moon gravitational tidal force working on Earth is strong, because of the Sun-Moon-Earth syzygy alignment.
Lunar disc is not visible from Earth. Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1842" and ∠1936".
At 09:28 on this date the Moon completes the old and enters a new synodic month with lunation 838 of Meeus index or lunation 1791 from Brown series.
The length of the lunation is 29 days, 14 hours and 46 minutes. It is 55 minutes longer than the next lunation's length. The lengths of the following synodic months are going to decrease with the lunar orbit true anomaly getting closer to the value it has at the point of New Moon at perigee (∠0° or ∠360°).
The length of the current synodic month is 2 hours and 2 minutes longer than the mean synodic month length. It is 5 hours and 1 minute shorter compared to 21st century's longest synodic month length.
The true anomaly of the Moon orbit is ∠237.7° and at the beginning of the next lunar synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠274.8°.
6 days since point of apogee on 31 October 2067 at 06:44 in ♌ Leo the lunar orbit is getting narrow while the Moon is moving towards the Earth. It will keep this direction over the next 8 days until the Moon reaches the point of next perigee on 14 November 2067 at 16:11 in ♒ Aquarius.
The Moon is 389 107 km (241 780 mi) away from Earth and getting closer over the next 8 days until the point perigee when Earth-Moon distance is going to be 370 093 km (229 965 mi).
11 days after descending node on 25 October 2067 at 14:38 in ♊ Gemini the Moon is positioned south of the ecliptic over the following 2 days until the lunar crosses the ecliptic again from South to North in ascending node on 9 November 2067 at 00:25 in ♐ Sagittarius.
11 days since the last northern standstill on 26 October 2067 at 02:13 in ♊ Gemini when the Moon has reached North declination of ∠22.333° the lunar orbit is extending southward over the next 2 days to face maximum declination of ∠-22.290° at the point of next southern standstill on 9 November 2067 at 11:57 in ♐ Sagittarius.
24 days since the beginning of this draconic month in ♐ Sagittarius the Moon is navigating from the second to the final part of the lunar cycle.
The Moon is in a New Moon geocentric conjunction with the Sun and thus forming Sun-Moon-Earth syzygy alignment.
