The moon 'shines' by the light it reflects from the sun. When the moon is on the opposite side of the earth to the sun, sunlight is reflected from the full hemisphere of the moon we can see. this is a full moon.
When the moon is on the same side of the sun the sunlight falls on the side we cannot see so no light is reflected to earth and we cannot see the moon even if it is above the horizon. This is a new moon.
