We can see the Moon becauselight from the Sun reflects off it back to the Earth. If the Sun wasn't there, we wouldn't be able to see it. The Sun always lights up (illuminates) half of the Moon at one time. The Moon appears to change shape but what we actually seeing is the Moon lit up by the light from the Sun in different ways on different days.

The moon appears to move from east to west.
Yes, the moon appears to move across the sky from east to west, just like the sun and stars. This is due to the rotation of the Earth on its axis.
east to west
The moon rises in the east and sets in the west due to the Earth's rotation from west to east. As the Earth rotates, the moon appears to move across the sky from east to west, mirroring the apparent movement of the sun. This east to west motion is an effect of the Earth's rotation and the moon's orbit around the Earth.
it depends where on the earth you are standing

During the course of a month, the moon moves through the stars from west to east, and also rotates from west to east on its own axis. (During the course of one day, the moon appears to move through the sky from east to west, but that doesn't really happen.)
The shadow of the moon moves from west to east across the Earth during a solar eclipse. This occurs because the Earth rotates from west to east, causing the shadow created by the moon to travel in that direction as it crosses the surface. As a result, observers in the path of the eclipse see the shadow move across the landscape in the same west-to-east direction.
Earth rotates on its axis The moon orbits the Earth The sun IS a star so stars move the same way Earth takes a year to orbit the sun Moon takes a month to orbit the earth Earth takes a day to orbit around its axis The Sun does NOT move
