A new moon is building towards becoming a full moon, and is said to be waxing (the light on the right side getting bigger). A full moon is receding towards being a new moon again, and is said to be waning (the area of light on the left side getting smaller). There are various named stages during which ever cycle the moon happens to be in.

What appears to happen to the Moon as it goes through the cycle?

As the Moon goes through its cycle, it transitions through various phases, including new moon, waxing crescent, first quarter, waxing gibbous, full moon, waning gibbous, last quarter, and waning crescent. This cycle, which takes about 29.5 days, is caused by the changing positions of the Moon, Earth, and Sun, affecting how much sunlight reflects off the Moon's surface as seen from Earth. Consequently, the Moon appears to grow larger and brighter after the new moon until it reaches full illumination, then shrinks back to darkness.
