Waxing Crescent: A Growing Light in the Sky

The waxing crescent phase follows the new moon and is a time of gradual illumination. The moon begins to show a sliver of light, growing from 4% to 31% over a few days. This phase is a beautiful preview of the full moon to come, with the crescent shape offering a gentle and captivating glow.
It is a quiet, beautiful stage of transformation as the moon moves from darkness toward fullness.
