We can see the Moon very faintly during this phase because, even though there is no Sun's light reflecting from the Moon, there is a small amount of light reflecting off Earth to the Moon. This 'Earthshine' is barely seen as a reflection from the Moon here on Earth.
The moon may not be visible on certain nights, even with a clear sky, due to its phase. During the new moon phase, the moon is positioned between the Earth and the Sun, making it largely unilluminated and difficult to see. Additionally, the moon's trajectory can place it below the horizon during certain times of the night.
You will see most of the moon's surface during the full moon phase when the entire illuminated side of the moon is facing Earth.
The phase of the moon that follows the waning gibbous phase is the third quarter phase. During this phase, half of the moon is illuminated, and it appears as a half-moon. The third quarter occurs roughly a week after the full moon and signifies the moon's transition towards the new moon phase.
During a lunar eclipse, the moon is at it's full phase - directly opposite the sun.

During a solar eclipse, the moon must be in the new moon phase.
which moon phase occurs during a solar eclipse?
During a new moon phase, the moon is located between the Earth and the Sun, so it is not visible from Earth.

A full moon
You will see most of the moon's surface during the full moon phase when the entire illuminated side of the moon is facing Earth.

full moon
A spring tide occurs during the full moon phase of the moon. This is also known as the new moon phase and the moon is located between the earth and the sun.
A "lunar" eclipse can not happen during the new moon phase it can only happen when the moon is full.
