Clan within hour rises for new start (7)

I believe the answer is:

rebirth

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'new start' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both acts as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe there's a link between them I don't understand?

'clan within hour rises' is the wordplay.
'clan' becomes 'tribe' (synonyms).
'within' indicates putting letters inside.
'hour' becomes 'hr' (synonyms).
'rises' says the letters should be written backwards.
'tribe' placed within 'hr' is 'htriber'.
'htriber' in reverse letter order is 'REBIRTH'.

'for' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for rebirth that I've seen before include "spiritual enlightenment" , "second coming" , "Renascence" , "Start of a new life?" , "Renaissance" .)
