What a new-moon time marks
The phase time identifies the instant when the Moon and Sun have the alignment that defines a new moon. It is not the time you first see a crescent; local visibility depends on further conditions and usually comes later.
If you use a new moon as a point of reflection, what do you want to pay attention to between this date and the full moon on 26 October? The date is calculated. The intention is yours.
This reference does not use your birth chart or predict an outcome. A personal reading would need birth details, a named tradition, and calculation rules that are not part of this public calendar.
