Either a First Quarter Moon or a Third Quarter Moon.

When the moon looks like a complete circle, it is called a full moon. This phase occurs when the Earth is positioned between the sun and the moon, allowing the sun's light to fully illuminate the moon's surface as viewed from Earth. Full moons typically occur once a month and are often associated with various cultural and natural phenomena.
The phase of the moon is called a first quarter or last quarter moon when it appears as a semi-circle. This occurs when the moon is at a 90-degree angle relative to the Earth and the Sun, resulting in half of the illuminated side facing Earth.
The area on the moon that looks like a woman is called the "Woman in the Moon." It is a lunar pareidolia, a phenomenon where familiar shapes or patterns are perceived in random or ambiguous stimuli.
A week after the new Moon, when half of the Moon's face is illuminated, it is called the First Quarter phase. During this phase, the Moon appears as a semi-circle, with the right half lit up in the Northern Hemisphere. This occurs as the Moon moves in its orbit and more of its surface becomes visible from Earth.
