The gravitational force of the moon is one ten-millionth that of earth, but when you combine other forces such as the earth's centrifugal force created by its spin, you get tides.
Spring tides happen when the sun and moon are on the same side of the earth (New Moon) or when the sun and moon are on opposite sides of the earth (Full Moon).  

7. Waning Moon A waning Moon is a Moon grows smaller in appearance.
(Definition)
A waning crescent moon is sometimes called an old moon. It’s seen in the east before dawn.
As the moon orbits Earth, it changes phase in an orderly way.

A waxing gibbous moon appears high in the east at sunset. It’s more than half-lighted, but less than full.
Any moon that appears more than half lighted but less than full is called a gibbous moon. The word gibbous comes from a root word that means hump-backed. You can see the hump-backed shape of the waxing gibbous moon.
