New Moon is the first, followed by first quarter, half Moon, three quarter, and full Moon. Then backwards to New moon again.

From the Southern Hemisphere, the positions of the light and shade will be reversed, but it will still be First Quarter/Last Quarter.

Note that when getting smaller it is "waining" and getting bigger it is "waxing".

So this "first quarter" spoken of is a "waxing cresent".

And when about to return to new moon is "waining cresent".
