The lunar cycle refers to the moon's continuous orbit around the earth. As the moon orbits the earth, its appearance or phase changes by the amount of the moon that can be seen with the naked eye. The full moon, when the moon appears as a circle, is the half-way point in the cycle. The moon then goes on through the waning gibbous, third quarter, waning crescent stages. The next stage is the new moon where no part of the moon is visible. The new moon is the first stage in the new cycle.
