You didn't proofread your question, so nobody can be sure of exactly what you're asking. You want to know about either the "tilt" of the new moon, or else the "title". I'm going to assume you mean the title: "New Moon". As you've probably noticed, the shape of the moon that you see in the sky goes through a whole cycle of "phases" in the course of a month. Beginning with a very skinny slice on the right side, it grows and grows for two weeks until the whole circular moon is visible. After that, it begins to disappear, a little at a time, night after night, and after another two weeks, all that's left is a skinny slice again, but this time it's on the left side. Then the whole thing repeats, every 29 days. You could start describing this process at any point. I started with the skinny slice on the right side. All cultures in history who have noticed the moon, or worshipped it, start with the skinny slice on the right side. That's always considered to be the beginning of the cycle, and it's called the "New Moon". Technically, as far as astronomers are concerned, the New Moon is actually a day or two BEFORE you see the skinny slice on the right, but at that point you can't see the moon at all. So, to the Jewish and Muslim religions, and to the Chinese, the New Moon is the first skinny slice you see AFTER the moon hasn't been visible at all for a few days. spoiler for new moon> ---- I think what he or she is asking, why is one of the Twilight books called new moon. A moon has cycles, like what is up there^. I think that is why she called it new moon. It was all in stages and each stage falled into the next easily. I'll show you... 1.bella and Edward, as happy as can be. 2.Edward desides to leave Bella 3. Bella starts to get depressed so hangs out with Jacob... 4.Edward comes back and they are as happy as can be... There are four main stages to the moon, these are the four main stages of new moon.

What does the title new moon mean in The Twilight Saga?

Do you know how when it's a New Moon in real life the sun doesn't reflect on the moon so you can't see the moon and it's really dark at night? Well that's what they mean as New Moon as the title. They mean it's a dark time because Edward left Bella. Get it? Because when the moon's face is a New Moon, it's dark! It all makes sense when you really think about it.
