if the moon is a full moon tonight what will be the moon one week later waxing or waning

Sagot :

AL2006

-- Starting from nothing (New Moon), the moon's shape grows ('waxes')
for half of the cycle, until it's full, and then it shrinks ('wanes') for the next
half of the cycle.

-- The moon's complete cycle of phases runs 29.53 days . . . roughly
four weeks.

-- So, beginning from New Moon, it spends about two weeks waxing until
it's full, and then another two weeks waning until it's all gone again.
 
-- After a Full Moon, the moon is waning for the next two weeks.  So it's
definitely waning at one week after Full.
