An aurora occurs when charged particles of the sun excite the electrons of atoms in Earth's atmosphere. The moon does not have an atmosphere.

Why dont you see the new moon?

The moon does not emit any light, the only reason why we see the moon at night is due to the sun reflecting off it. When there is a new moon the earth is exactly in between the moon and the sun, thus no sunlight reaches the moon as a result it is dark and cannot be seen in the night sky
