Rules of Moon Phases  The moon has 8 phases.  The moon has phases because it revolves around the Earth  As the moon moves, the amount of sunlight on the side of the moon that faces the Earth changes. This creates the moon phases  It takes approx. one month for the moon to move through all 8 phases

 Everything always moves right to left on the moon  Waning means the light on the moon is growing  Waxing means the light on the moon is shrinking
