To determine the current moon phase, we can consult various websites that provide up-to-date information on the moons cycle. Here are the results from some of these websites:

• According to Moon Giant, the current moon phase for today and tonight is a Waxing Crescent Phase, with an illumination of 36%. This is the first phase after the New Moon and is best seen in the west after the sun dips below the horizon at sunset.

• The Old Farmers Almanac also reports that todays moon is a Waxing Crescent, with an illumination of 28% and 6 days old.

• The Nine Planets states that the current moon phase for today is a Waning Crescent phase, with an illumination of 36.79%.

• Time and Date reports that the current moon phase is a Waxing Crescent, with an illumination of 33.6%.

• Finally, NASA Science provides a more detailed breakdown of the moons phases, but also confirms that the current phase is a Waxing Crescent.

Based on these sources, it appears that the current moon phase is a Waxing Crescent.
