First Quarter or Third Quarter.
A quarter moon typically represents the first or last quarter phase of the moon, symbolizing a time of reflection or transition. The two stars could represent guidance or aspiration, often associated with hope and navigation. The pie sign in the middle may symbolize sharing, abundance, or a slice of life, suggesting a focus on balance and enjoyment. Together, these symbols could convey a message about embracing change while seeking guidance and balance in life.
There are 8 phases of Earth's Moon: New Moon, Waxing Crescent, First Quarter, Waxing Gibbous, Full Moon, Waning Gibbous, Last Quarter, and Waning Crescent.
No, lunar phase refers to the illuminated portion of the Moon as seen from Earth, which changes continuously throughout the lunar cycle. A quarter moon specifically refers to the Moon when it is half-illuminated, representing either the first or last quarter of the lunar cycle.

Half of the Moon you cannot see because it faces away from Earth. Half of the side you could see is in darkness at "half Moon". That makes 3/4 of the Moon invisible and 1/4 visible. Hence "a quarter Moon" is visible. Another viewpoint: No, that's not really the answer. This is the answer: Let's start with "New Moon". Later, at "Full Moon", the Moon is halfway through its cycle of phases. Halfway between these two phases we see a half Moon. That's called the "first quarter" phase, because the Moon is a quarter of the way through its phases. So, that's why we see the half Moon at a "quarter" phase. It does cause confusion.
The time between a third quarter moon and a new moon is approximately one week. A third quarter moon occurs about 21 days into the lunar cycle, while a new moon occurs around 29.5 days into the cycle. Therefore, there are roughly 7 to 8 days between these two phases.
During the two weeks after Full Moon . . . Waning gibbous --> Third Quarter (half-illuminated) --> Waning crescent --> New Moon
During the entire two weeks from First Quarter to Third Quarter, more of the moon's lighted surface faces toward Earth than faces away from it.
There are two phases of the moon that appear to be a half disk: the first quarter and the third quarter. The entire cycle of moon phases takes about 28 days (27.3217 days). Counting the day of a new moon as the first day, then the phases in order are: • waxing crescent • first quarter (a half lit moon resembling the letter "D") at end of week one • waxing gibbous • full at end of week two • waning gibbous • third quarter (a half lit moon resembling the letter "C") at end of week three • waning crescent • and back to the new moon, completing the cycle after week four
