Which moon is setting in the west a couple of hours before sunrise?
The waning gibbous phase of the Moon. Think of it this way. The full moon rises at sunset, and sets around sunrise. The Moon's apparent motion in the sky is "backwards"; everything seems to move east to west, but from evening to evening, the Moon seems to be moving west to east. So the phase of the Moon that sets a couple of hours before sunrise is the waning gibbous moon, about 3 days past the full.
How long does it take for the moon to move from the new moon to the full moon?

Why don't people on Earth see an eclipse of the moon every full Moon phase?
The Moon orbits around the Earth on an angle so it usually does not go directly behind the Earth. When it does move directly behind the earth, that is when we see a lunar eclipse.
How maeny days does it take for the moon to move from full moon to new moon?
About 15 days
When does a moon phase start over again?
A "new" moon occurs when the moon is between the sun and the earth. Sometimes it is so close to the moon that we can't see it. As the moon continues to orbit the earth, it's eastern limb begins to reflect the sun. The terminator continues to move west across the face of the moon until the earth comes between the sun and the moon. This phase is called a "full moon". Following a full moon, darkness begins at the eastern limb and the moon grows darker each day until a new moon occurs again. A solar eclipse can only occur during a new moon, and a lunar eclipse occurs only during a full moon.
Which way do the patterns of shadow and light move across the moon?

What phase of the moon must be in to have a lunar eclipse?
For a lunar eclipse, the moon must be at the full moon phase. The earth will be between the moon and the sun, observers on earth will see the shadow of the earth move ac-cross the moon. With the earth in the middle of the three bodies, observers on earth will see maximum sunlight reflection off the surface of the moon at that point. We don't see eclipses every time, as the alignments and orbits are not exactly uniform.
