Can the Moon's phases cause shifts in earths plates causing earthquakes?

The Moon exerts a gravitational pull on the Earth, which causes ocean tides. If the tectonic plates were such that we were on the verge of an earthquake anyway, maybe the moon's pull could be the straw that breaks the camel's back, so to speak.However, when we take of the phases of the Moon, that refers to the way the light from the Sun hits the Moon, affecting how much of it is illuminated as we look at it from Earth. that doesn't affect the gravitational pull.

Which phases of the moon bring the highest tides what cause the height tides?

The highest tides, known as spring tides, occur during the full moon and new moon phases when the sun, moon, and Earth are aligned, creating a stronger gravitational pull on the ocean. Spring tides cause higher high tides and lower low tides.


Does the sun help cause ocean tides?

Yes, the Sun does have a large effect. When the Sun and Moon are both on the same side of the Earth is when the tides are the largest.
