what does it mean to have a new moon on your birthday may16, 1961?

Answer 1

New Moon, aka Dark Moon - The dark moon phase lasts about 4 days, from the time the moon disappears to the time it reappears again as a thin crescent.

The dark moon phase is the end of one cycle and the beginning of another, so it represents the cycle of death and rebirth, a transition from one state to another.

During moonless nights, we automatically withdraw into our inner world
a little. This instinctual "pulling back" from the external world may be due to the fact that we are getting less information from our eyes to some extent, but the lack of a moon effects us on a much deeper, more subtle level too.

The Dark moon phase is a good time for rest and quiet contemplation, for introspection. Take this time to recharge yourself for the month ahead. Explore the potential of ideas. The dark phase is the phase of the mind.
