The moon always has a shadow. However, you can see its shadow only when it falls on Earth during eclipse. An eclipse occurs when one objects passes into the shadow of another object

Solar Eclipse, partial or total obscuring of the sun by the moon, with a resultant shadow cast upon the earth. http://encarta.msn.com/encyclopedia_761586018/Solar_Eclipse.html
