Two weeks after the waning gibbous phase of the moon you will see a new moon.
You can check the phase of the moon for tonight by looking at a lunar calendar, using a mobile app that tracks moon phases, visiting a weather website that includes moon phase information, or setting up a telescope or binoculars to observe the moon directly.
The bright spot near the moon tonight is likely a planet like Venus or Jupiter. Planets are often visible near the moon, appearing as bright points of light in the night sky.
