I feel as though I have a good understanding of the movements of the moon, sun, planets and any other bodies out there, but there is still one thing that has been giving me trouble. My problem is finding out the phase of the moon given its position and the suns position in the sky. Can someone help me try to understand a way to visualize it? Here are some examples:
1) Moon is east of the Sun in the sky.
2) The Sun is located at the vernal equinox and the moon is at the autumnal
equinox.
3) A lunar eclipse occurred about one week ago.
