The new moon is the phase of the moon when only the side of the moon away from the earth is lit, so the side facing earth is in near total darkness. The moon is very difficult to see during this phase.

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.
