The four major moon phases, which are about a week apart, are

  • new moon,
  • first quarter,
  • full moon, and
  • last quarter.

As the amount of sunlight we see on the moon increases from new moon to full moon, the moon is said to be waxing. As that amount decreases from full moon to new moon, the moon is said to be waning. Also, when less than half of the visible side of the moon is lit, it is called a crescent, and when more than half is lit, it is called gibbous. Inserting into the list of moon phases the descriptions of the moon between phases gives us the following list:
  • new moon
  • waxing crescent
  • first quarter
  • waxing gibbous
  • full moon
  • waning gibbous
  • last quarter
  • waning crescent
  • (new moon)

It depends on the current phase of the moon. If the moon is progressing from a new moon toward a full moon, it is waxing. If the moon is decreasing from a full moon toward a new moon, it is waning.
