What earth phase do you see when you see a waxing gibbous phase on the moon?

It would be the opposite. If we went to the moon when it was full, we would look back at an earth in shadow (a `new earth`)
If we went to the moon when it was new, then it would be between us and the sun, so we would look back at a full earth.
For a waxing gibbous from earth, the earth would be a waning crescent from the moon.
