What time is the new moon in December 2027?

Maximum conjunction falls on 27 December 2027 at 20:12 UTC. That is a single instant worldwide, so your local clock time depends on your offset from UTC — the Moon looks essentially dark for about a day either side.

Do I have to do the ritual on the exact day?

No. The phase is a marker, not a deadline. Working within a day or two either side is normal practice, and a ritual you actually complete beats a perfectly timed one you skip.
