Waxing
When the lit part of the Moon grows larger, it is in the phase known as "waxing." This phase occurs after the New Moon and leads up to the Full Moon. During this time, more of the Moon's surface becomes illuminated as seen from Earth, transitioning from a crescent to a gibbous shape.

A waxing gibbous moon appears as a large, illuminated portion of the lunar surface, with more than half but less than full light visible. It is characterized by a convex shape, bulging outward, and is typically seen in the days leading up to a full moon. The illuminated part grows larger each night as the moon approaches its full phase. The waxing gibbous phase is marked by its bright, prominent appearance in the night sky.
