New moon in February 2027
Saturday 6 February 2027, 15:56 UTC
The Sun and the Moon stand together in the zodiac sign of Aquarius. The Moon is invisible: it is in the daytime sky with the Sun and turns its dark side to us.
At this new moon the Moon passes in front of the Sun: a solar eclipse. All eclipses.
What tradition sees in the new moon
A blank beginning, in the good sense. A small start is quite enough today.
The sign of Aquarius
Traditionally, Aquarius is the sign of the new and of community. It thinks independently, values friendship above convention and often has ideas whose time has not yet come. Uranus, its modern ruler, stands for new departures and surprise. An Aquarius is there for many and lets few come close. Its task is to bring freedom and closeness together.
When to look for the first crescent
The thin crescent of the waxing Moon appears one or two evenings after the new moon, low in the west shortly after sunset. Exactly when depends on where you are: the visibility of the new crescent.
