When the Earth-facing side of the Moon is completely unilluminated by the Sun, virtually invisible in the night sky, it is new. New Moon babies grow up to be very in tune with what they want, always trying new things and maintaining a childlike wonder. The same energy often translates to love under this phase. New Moon couples rarely get bored of each other, and are always keeping each other on their toes. As expected, this phase is the perfect time for new beginnings.
