On Saturday 8th February, 2014, the phase of he moon was waxing gibbous.
On Saturday, February 16, 2019, the moon was in its Waxing Gibbous phase. This phase occurs when the moon is between the First Quarter and Full Moon, with more than half of the moon's surface illuminated. The Waxing Gibbous phase is characterized by a bulging appearance, leading up to the Full Moon.
The moon was in its first quarter phase on Friday, appearing as a half moon. It transitioned to a waxing gibbous phase on Saturday, where it appears more than half full but less than full.
On Thursday the 3rd Feb 2011 it was a full Moon. On Friday the 11th Feb 2011 it will be a half Moon. Therefore on Saturday 5th Feb 2011 it was a waning Moon between full and half.
The Moon was full two days ago, so for the next 5 days the Moon will be in the "waning gibbous" phase. On Saturday, 2/6/10, the Moon will be at the Third Quarter phase.

At the time of answering this question, last Saturday was 4th May 2013. The third quarter moon was on May 3rd so therefore the moon phase for this date (Saturday May 4th, 2013), was waning crescent.

New Moon.
The phase of the Moon that comes immediately before the new Moon phase is the waning crescent phase.
A waxing Moon can be seen when the Moon is larger in the sky, and is moving from the new Moon phase, and into the full Moon phase. A waning Moon is seen when the Moon is visibly smaller in the sky, and is moving from the full Moon phase, and into the new Moon phase.
The phase of the Moon that occurs when it is three-quarters full just before the full Moon phase is the waxing gibbous phase. This phase occurs as the Moon is waxing, or growing larger, towards the full Moon.
