Spring Supermoon 2023: Your Complete Guide

The new Moon in March 2023 will mark the start of Ramadan, a month-long Islamic period of fasting and spiritual reflection. A new Moon occurs when the Moon is located between the Earth and the Sun, and its illuminated side is facing away from the Earth. Generally, a new Moon cannot be seen with the naked eye, but it can be visible during a solar eclipse. Earthshine creates an effect where the entire Moon is visible, but it’s not a full Moon. The new Moon supermoons in 2023 are widely accepted to be on 21 January, 20 February, and 21 March.
