It's how much of the Moon you can see lit up by the Sun. Half of the Moon is always in sunlight, but our position relative to it varies so we see different views of it. A full moon is when we see it as a whole disk, and then there are various different shapes, including the classic crescent shapes, down to no moon at all when it all starts again. The phases are the names for these different views.

How do the phases of the new moon fit with changes in Edwards life?

If you mean the name of the book, Stephine Meyer says that its called New Moon because the new moon is the darkest in the moon cycle. New Moon was the darkest time in Bella's life because she was without Edward. If I were Stephine Meyer though, I would've had Bella get with Jacob and Edward sees how happy she is and never comes back again.
