the new moon
The new Moon "phase" is when the Moon is (more or less) in front of the Sun. We cannot normally see the Moon in this phase. If the Moon is exactly in front of the Sun, the Moon covers the Sun and we see a solar eclipse.
The phase in which the moon is not visible from earth is called the "new" moon. It happens when the moon is aligned between the sun and the earth (every 28 days), which causes the side of the moon that we usually see to be in shadow.
In the new Moon phase.
During the new moon phase, the side of the moon facing Earth is not illuminated by the sun, making it impossible to see.
All phases of the moon can be viewed from the earth. The moon is easier to see on a clear night, though the moon can also be seen during the day, depending on its orbit, and how bright the sunlight is.

Where I live, there is a distinct no-moon phase. Thus I cannot see any new moon within the old moon.

the New Moon is difficult to see from the earth since the sunlit side of the moon is turned away from the earth.
The "new moon" by definition is the moon phase where it is completely in the earth's shadow, and we cannot see it at all. New moon is the exact opposite of "full moon".
