The moon, the stars, the universe... the beautiful light that is visible in the dark night. During the waning moon, more inward, dreaming.
The waxing moon or crescent moon is the moon for two weeks after the new moon. The word wash here means 'increase' or 'grow'. After these two weeks there is a full moon. The waning moon is the moon in the two weeks between full and new moon.
In a less broad sense, when one thinks of a waxing or waning moon, one thinks of a sickle, i.e. in the days shortly before and after the new moon.
