What is the difference between a waning crescent and a eclipse?
A waning crescent moon is a phase of the moon's cycle where less than half of the moon is illuminated and it appears as a crescent shape.

The shadow of the earth on the moon causes a crescent moon?
During a partial lunar eclipse (or during the early or late stages of a total lunar eclipse) this can happen. However, we normally see the "crescent moon" a few days before and after the New Moon, because the bulk of the Moon is still in the dark and only a narrow sliver is in the sunlight.
In what phase of the moon can a total eclipse occur?
Solar eclipse (total or otherwise): at new moon. Lunar eclipse (total or otherwise): at full moon. -- Immediately after a Solar eclipse you get a new crescent moon appearing in the sky. Obviously therefore the eclipse happens at the point when the side of the moon that faces us is in total shadow - indeed during the eclipse we are covered by that shadow. -- Immediately after a lunar eclipse, as soon as the moon moves out of the shadow, it is full.
What phase is the moon in just before and after a solar eclipse?
Just before a solar eclipse, the moon is in the New Moon phase, as it is positioned between the Earth and the Sun, making it invisible from Earth. Just after the eclipse, the moon remains in the New Moon phase for a short period until it begins to wax into a crescent shape as it moves away from that alignment.
What is the phase of the moon when it's crescent shaped?
