The two phases of a waxing Moon are the first quarter and gibbous. During the first quarter, half of the Moon is illuminated and appears as a half-circle in the sky. During the gibbous phase, more than half but not yet fully illuminated, the Moon appears as a large, slightly bulging shape.
The moon would be called a waxing gibbous when it is just larger than a half.
The final half of the moon cycle is called the waning phase, while the first half is called the waxing phase. During the waxing phase, the illuminated portion of the moon visible from Earth is increasing, whereas during the waning phase, it is decreasing.
The amount of visibility that the waxing cresent has is less than half. The right side is the side illuminated.
A waxing gibbous moon is when the illuminated portion is increasing (more than half but less than full), while a waning gibbous moon is when the illuminated portion is decreasing (more than half but less than full). The transition from waxing to waning occurs after the full moon.
when over half the moon has light this is also the last waxing phase.

New moon, Waxing Cresent, Waxing Gibbous, Waning Cresent, Waning Gibbous, half moon and the full moon.
He looked at the waxing gibbous moon and knew that in a few nights the moon would be full.
Waxing crescent
it goes left because half of the moon reflects off a star called the sun so waxing goes left
