The Moon goes through eight distinct phases during its lunar cycle: New Moon, Waxing Crescent, First Quarter, Waxing Gibbous, Full Moon, Waning Gibbous, Third Quarter, and Waning Crescent. These phases are a result of the changing positions of the Moon, Earth, and the Sun, which affect how much of the Moon's illuminated side we can see from Earth.
