Answer:
That westward motion is caused by Earth's spin. ... The moon's orbit carries it around Earth's sky once a month, because the moon takes about a month to orbit Earth. So the moon moves – with respect to the fixed stars – by about 12 to 13 degrees each day. The moon's orbital motion carries it eastward in Earth's sky.
The Moon revolves around Earth in an elliptical orbit with a mean eccentricity of 0.0549. ... The mutual gravitational force between the Sun and Moon is over twice as large as between the Moon and Earth. For this reason, the Sun plays a dominant role in perturbing the Moon's motion.
