Lunar eclipses can only happen at the FULL moon phase.
And whether you see it or not, there's a new moon every 29 days, and a full moon 14.5 days later. That's been happening for the last few billion years.
A "lunar" eclipse can not happen during the new moon phase it can only happen when the moon is full.

No, a lunar eclipse is not the same as a new moon. A lunar eclipse occurs when the Earth passes between the sun and the moon, casting a shadow on the moon. A new moon is when the moon is positioned between the Earth and the sun, so it is not visible from Earth.

They happen during, and only during, the new moon. This is because during an eclipse the moon has the sun shining from directly behind it, and it's impossible for us to see any of the side of the moon lit up by the sun from this angle.

Solar eclipses are caused by the Moon covering the Sun. This can happen at new moon. Lunar eclipses are caused when the Moon gets into Earth's shadow. This can happen at full moon.
