The phases of the moon are new moon, waxing crescent, first quarter, waxing gibbous, full moon, waning gibbous, last quarter, and waning crescent. These phases are a result of the changing positions of the moon in relation to the Earth and the Sun, causing different portions of the moon to be illuminated at different times.
