The phases of the moon cycle approximately every 29.5 days. The period when the moon appears to be getting smaller, also known as waning, occurs after the full moon and continues until the new moon. This waning phase occurs during roughly the third week (waning gibbous phase) and fourth week (waning crescent phase).
