This is because the New Moonalso has to be close to a lunarnode. The plane of the Moon'sorbital path around Earth is inclined at an angle of approximately 5° in relation to Earth's orbital plane around the Sun—the ecliptic. The points where the 2 orbital planes meet are called lunar nodes.

Reason for an annular lunar eclipse not seen:
- The annular lunar eclipse is generally not seen. The main reason behind this is that the size of the earth is much more huge than that of the moon. There is no path of totality in a lunar eclipse.
- Therefore its shadow won't nearly be small enough to be leaving a ring.
- That being said, the moon is efficient enough to form eclipses.
- If this eclipse turns out to be a complete lunar eclipse then the moon passes through an area consisting of total shadow which is formed by the earth.
- The colour of the moon is often turned into red than black because the light rays of the sun are refracted.
- Therefore it can be concluded that due to the vast shadow of earth, the annular lunar eclipse is not seen.
