New Moon in April 2025: an unfavorable day is coming

The new moon is a special phase of the lunar cycle, with which astrologers traditionally associate rebooting, renewal and the start of life processes. During this period, the Moon is located between the Earth and the Sun on approximately the same straight line, so it seems that the satellite temporarily disappears from the night sky. The next new moon will come on April 27 in the earth sign of Taurus. According to astrologers, during this lunar phase, many will feel a deterioration in their well-being and an increase in depressive states. At the same time, the new Moon will create favorable conditions for resolving important issues, finding inner balance and shaping long-term prospects. When the full moon comes in April 2025, what to prepare for and what to avoid is in the Izvestia article.
New Moon in April 2025: what is known
The new Moon is one of the phases of the Moon in which the satellite is located between the Earth and the Sun on almost the same line. The new Moon is almost impossible to spot in the sky, as its illuminated side faces the Sun and its dark side faces the Earth. Sometimes, before or after a new moon, you can see a faint glow around the moon's disk, called ashen light. This rare phenomenon occurs due to the reflection of sunlight scattered by the Earth and returned by the Moon.
In addition, it is only during the new moon period that a solar eclipse can be observed from Earth. At this moment, the Moon also appears between the Earth and the Sun and can cover the solar disk, completely or partially obscuring it. A solar eclipse does not occur at every new moon, because the Moon's orbit is tilted about 5 degrees to the plane of the Earth's orbit (the ecliptic), and the satellite most often passes above or below the celestial body from the point of view of an observer on Earth.
For a solar eclipse to occur, the new moon must coincide with the Moon's passage through the nodes of its orbit — the intersection points of the Earth's satellite's orbit with the ecliptic plane. These periods are called eclipse seasons and occur approximately twice a year with an interval of about six months. The first corridor of eclipses has already ended, and the second partial solar eclipse is expected on September 21, 2025. It will be visible in the South Pacific Ocean, including New Zealand and parts of Antarctica, as well as in Australia and Antarctica.
A new moon occurs approximately once every 29.5 days, which is the period of the Moon's orbit around the Earth, which is commonly referred to as the lunar or synodic month. There are about 12 new moons in one year, which gradually shift along the zodiacal constellations during this period. In 2025, the phases of the new moon will take place in the following dates and signs:
— April 27 — Taurus;
— May 27 — Gemini;
— June 25 — Cancer;
— July 24 — Cancer;
— August 23rd — Virgo;
— September 21 — Virgo;
— October 21 — Libra;
— November 20th — Scorpio;
— December 20 — Capricorn.
The next phase of the new moon will begin on April 27 at 22:31 Moscow time. Since the Moon in this phase is very close to the Sun on the celestial sphere, it will be almost impossible to see it. All that can be seen in the sky at this time is a dark spot, indistinguishable to the naked eye. The new moon is a phenomenon of one day. The next phase, the waxing Moon, will begin on April 28.
On April 27, the Earth's satellite will be in the zone of the zodiac constellation of Taurus, a stable and sensual earth sign patronized by Venus, the goddess of love, beauty and fertility. It symbolizes resilience, practicality and connection with the earth, so this period is ideal for strengthening the foundations in life — in relationships, finances, creativity and everyday life.
According to astrologers, the new moon in Taurus calls not just to dream, but to take root, that is, to create intentions that can withstand change and give stable growth for many months. The Earth sign enhances determination, hard work, and single-mindedness. Therefore, the new moon will also be a good time for new beginnings.
New Moon on April 27, 2025: astrologers' forecast
Modern science denies the connection between the phases of the moon and human health due to the lack of convincing evidence. However, followers of astrology claim that the phases of the moon can affect people's psychological and physical health. In their opinion, a person consisting of 80% water is exposed to the gravitational forces of the Earth's satellite, like oceans and seas. This effect leads to a shift in the water balance and a change in fluid dynamics in the body, which affects the well-being of a person. It is believed that the new moon coincides with the so-called "biological tide" and provides a powerful influx of energy.
Astrologers advise using this period for planning, improving health, and starting new projects related to financial stability. Surgical operations and complex cosmetic procedures are not recommended during the new moon, as the result will be unpredictable. April 27, 2025 may be both a favorable and an unfavorable day. It all depends on how a person uses his inner energy, because the new Moon symbolizes the "zeroing out" of the old and the laying of a new one, astrologers believe.
From the point of view of the lunar calendar, the April new moon is the 29th lunar day, which is considered unfavorable due to a decreased vitality and an increased likelihood of depression and deception. At the same time, the Moon will be located in the constellation of Taurus, which provokes an energy surge accompanied by nervous excitement, irritability, unstable sleep and emotional overload.
Astrologers advise to avoid sudden movements on this day: do not enter into conflicts, do not make impulsive decisions, do not overload the body. During the new moon period, it is recommended to deal only with urgent matters and avoid stress whenever possible.
At the same time, Taurus gives positive impulses. This sign is prone to creativity, neatness, thrift, and perseverance. Therefore, April 27 may be a good day for planning the future, meditating, exercising and giving up bad habits. On this day, it is recommended to pay increased attention to your body and the space around you: organize cleaning, put your diet and sleep in order.
The energy sector on April 27 will be stable, but tense. The earthly element will require sanity, patience and concrete actions from all representatives of the zodiac signs. However, according to the horoscope, everyone will feel the influence of the new moon in different ways.
