This day is only suitable for quick, fleeting affairs that do not require prior planning and organisation. Do not act as a strategist but as a tactician, trust your intuition more.
At the beginning of the lunar cycle you should plan ahead to solve your pressing problems. However, you should not begin to put your plans into practice just yet.
The New Moon is characterised by feelings of emotional instability, nervousness and anxiety. Lack of energy leads to lethargy and constant apathy, while memory and attention suffer noticeably. Therefore, do not plan any responsible affairs during this period.
It is better not to start any important and responsible business on Friday. It is desirable to complete the projects that have already been started.
