The Biblical New Moon: A guide for celebrating by Kisha Gallagher
The moon's constant phases remind us that even in our failings, when our light decreases, there is always hope for renewal. The moon also teaches about the reality of (spiritual) darkness and the need for the (spiritual) light of Messiah.
Perhaps this is one reason that Yeshua revealed to Nicodemus the need to be born again at nighttime. The moon would have been visible in the evening sky as the two spoke about heavenly things. While it's possible that Nicodemus may have wanted to question the Master under the cover of darkness, Yeshua allowed their physical surroundings to teach spiritual truth: "You must be born again."
This book gives the basics of the new moon as mentioned in Scripture, suggests spiritual applications, and gives a concise reference guide for each month's themes and relationship to a specific tribe of Israel.
