Directly after a full moon, the lunar phases that occur are the waning gibbous, followed by the last quarter, and then the waning crescent. The waning gibbous phase features a gradually decreasing illuminated portion of the moon, while the last quarter shows half of the moon lit from the left side (in the Northern Hemisphere). Following this, the waning crescent phase appears as a thin sliver of light before the moon transitions back to a new moon.
Lunar eclipses can only occur at the full moon.
Lunar phases are tightly related to both kinds of eclipse: -- A lunar eclipse can occur only at the time of Full Moon. -- A solar eclipse can occur only at the time of New Moon.
because all the moon phases have to occur before the full moon and the new moon
Moon phases are closely linked to solar and lunar eclipses. A solar eclipse occurs during a new moon when the moon is positioned directly between the Earth and the sun, blocking the sun's light. Conversely, a lunar eclipse happens during a full moon when the Earth is positioned between the sun and the moon, casting a shadow on the moon. Therefore, both types of eclipses can only occur at specific phases of the moon.
A lunar eclipse can occur only during the full moon phase. This is when the Earth is positioned directly between the sun and the moon, causing the Earth's shadow to fall on the moon. Partial, total, and penumbral lunar eclipses can all take place during this phase, depending on the alignment of the three celestial bodies.

Only at the Full phase.

The only moon phase that occurs during a lunar eclipse, is a Full Moon.
A lunar eclipse can only occur at Full Moon.There are no phases of the sun.
No. A lunar eclipse is caused when the Moon passes through the shadow cast by the Earth; this can only occur when the Moon is full.
A lunar eclipse occurs at a FULL MOON when Earth is directly between the moon and the sun!!

As a matter of fact, Full Moon is the only time a lunar eclipse can occur.
