*These dates are taken from a calendar synchronized to start each Hebrew month on the new moon as it would be seen from the Temple Mount in Jerusalem. This new moon is calculated using lunar phase software that can pinpoint the moon’s position and phase at any time from any latitude/longitude on earth. In some cases they do not match the dates determined by Jewish Rabbis. There are other correct ways to reckon the dates.

Our Feasts at a Glance reference guide provides these dates along with the purpose, tone and various commandments for each.

2024 Expected New Moon Dates

The Hebrew calendar is based on the lunar cycle. The first evening the new moon of each cycle can be observed in the sky denotes the beginning of a new month on the Hebrew calendar. According to the Bible, new moons are also cause for celebration.
