Moon Orbit

Can anyone tell me what path the orbit of the moon follows around the earth? Is it around the equator or another continuous line? Or does the path vary over time in a repeating pattern, or is it random?

Great - why couldn't i find that a while back when I looked? - along with the page on the eliptic it answers my question.
Thanks
