During the period that the moon's phases are changing from new to full, the moon is waxing. This means that the illuminated portion of the moon as seen from Earth is increasing. It starts with the new moon, where the moon is not visible, and progresses to the first quarter, then to the gibbous phase, and finally to the full moon. This sequence reflects the moon's orbit around Earth and the changing angles of sunlight illuminating its surface.
