What Are Moon Phases?

Moon phases are the different appearances of the Moon as seen from Earth, caused by the changing positions of the Moon, Earth, and Sun. The Moon does not emit its own light; instead, it reflects sunlight. As it orbits Earth, different portions of its surface are illuminated, creating the phases we see.

The 8 Main Moon Phases

  1. New Moon ๐ŸŒ‘ โ€“ The Moon is between Earth and the Sun, making it invisible from Earth.
  2. Waxing Crescent ๐ŸŒ’ โ€“ A small part of the Moon becomes visible as a thin crescent.
  3. First Quarter ๐ŸŒ“ โ€“ Half of the Moon is illuminated (right side in the Northern Hemisphere).
  4. Waxing Gibbous ๐ŸŒ” โ€“ More than half of the Moon is visible, growing toward full.
  5. Full Moon ๐ŸŒ• โ€“ The entire face of the Moon is illuminated.
  6. Waning Gibbous ๐ŸŒ– โ€“ The Moon begins to shrink, but more than half is still visible.
  7. Last Quarter ๐ŸŒ— โ€“ Half of the Moon is visible (left side in the Northern Hemisphere).
  8. Waning Crescent ๐ŸŒ˜ โ€“ A thin crescent remains before the cycle restarts.

How Long Is a Moon Cycle?

A full lunar cycle (from one New Moon to the next) is called a lunar month or synodic month, which lasts about 29.5 days. This is why the Moonโ€™s phases shift slightly each month on our calendar.
