Waxing and waning refer to the cyclical phases of the moon, where "waxing" describes the period when the moon's illuminated portion is increasing, leading up to a full moon, while "waning" indicates the phase when the illuminated portion is decreasing after the full moon. This terminology can also be applied metaphorically to describe any process or situation that is growing and then diminishing in intensity, presence, or influence.
When the bright part of the moon appears to be larger, it is said to waxing. When the moon appears to be getting smaller, it is waning.
The Moon appears to be waxing when it is transitioning from a new moon to a full moon, and waning when transitioning from a full moon to a new moon. Without specific information on the current lunar phase, it's not possible to determine if the Moon is waxing or waning at this moment.
Waxing is to get bigger and waning is to get smaller.

Those are called the "phases" of the Moon. The Moon can be "full", meaning we can see all of the sunlit hemisphere. It can be "new", meaning we can't see any of it in sunlight. Between those phases are "waxing and waning crescents" and "waxing and waning gibbous", and the "first and third quarter phases". The actual order of the phases is: New, waxing crescent, first quarter, waxing gibbous, full, waning gibbous, third quarter, waning crescent.
