The phase of the moon that occurs between the third quarter and the new moon is the waning crescent. During this phase, the illuminated part of the moon visible from Earth decreases until it eventually becomes a new moon with no visible illumination.

Either a First Quarter Moon or a Third Quarter Moon.
From the first quarter moon face, the right side is the shining side. The first quarter moon occurs when half of the moon's face is illuminated and visible from Earth.
'Third Quarter' occurs 7.38 days after a Full Moon.After the Third Quarter, you'd have to wait 22.1 daysfor the next Full Moon.
Neap Tide is the tide that occurs when the Sun and Moon are in 'quadrature',or 90 degrees apart in the sky. When things are arranged that way, we seethe Moon at either First Quarter or Third Quarter.
A lunar quarter refers to one of the four primary phases of the moon, when the moon appears to be one-quarter illuminated. This occurs after the new moon and before the full moon. The lunar quarter is also known as the first quarter or third quarter, depending on whether it is waxing or waning.
The Moon's third quarter phase, also known as the last quarter, occurs when half of the Moon's visible surface is illuminated and is located between the full moon and the new moon. The first quarter phase, conversely, also features half of the Moon illuminated but occurs between the new moon and the full moon. Both phases showcase the same amount of illumination (50% of the lunar surface), but they are opposite each other in the lunar cycle, with the first quarter appearing in the evening sky and the third quarter in the morning sky.
The first quarter moon occurs when the moon is halfway between the new moon and full moon, and one-quarter of its surface is illuminated. It appears as a half-circle in the sky, with the right side illuminated. It is also known as a half moon.
Neap tides are the ones that coincide with the Moon's First Quarter and Third Quarter.
