The sliver of the crescent New Moon was NOT observed in Israel on the evening of 17 May 2026 just after sunset (read here and here) as predicted -- if observed this would have been the 29th day of the month. By default, the 30th day of the month becomes the first day of the third month of the Biblical New Year as observed from Jerusalem, Israel from sunset on 18 May 2026 to the sunset on 19 May 2026.
Below is a calendar that reflects God’s appointed Holy Days (Leviticus 23, Numbers 28-29) based on the confirmed observation of the New Moon within Israel by more than two witnesses. Take it upon yourself to prove and validate these appointed Holy Days yourself, to "Prove all things; hold fast that which is good." (1 Thessalonians 5:21).
If you question why this is the Third Month of the Biblical New Year, first - READ YOUR BIBLE, and read this post.
The next New Moon is predicted to be visible in Israel on 16 June 2026, just after sunset. You can review predictive data and illustrative charts on multiple websites, some listed below at:
Moon Sighting UK Crescent Visibility Maps provides monthly Moon Sighting UK
In-The-Sky.org provides Moon ephemeris data
Israeli Society for the View of the New Moon or the Biblical Calendar Society
If you desire to use real-time simulated data to observe the predicted New Moon cycle, it is available in a program called Stellarium. Stellarium is free to download and use.
