The phases of the Moon: DOC and COD. If we see the Moon in the shape D it is waxing and C it is waning. O is full-moon. In the Southern Hemisphere it is the other way.
The Solar eclipse occurs on a New-moon day and the Lunar on a full-moon day. The declination of the Sun and the Moon must be same to cause a Solar eclipse. It must be the opposite to cause a lunar eclipse. A lunar eclipse precedes [ a fortnight before] or follows[ a fortnight after] the solar eclipse.
