The Moon shows up as a half-moon in the sky. Roughly half the visible face lit. Rises at noon, peaks at sunset, sets around midnight. First "crossroads" of the cycle.
The pattern
Classic feeling at this phase: the decisions that were pending need to be made. What started at the New Moon with hesitation is now asking for commitment.
Many people notice more assertiveness here. For the good (resolving stuck things) and for the watch-out (conflicts, irritation, impatience). Worth being aware of.
