Moon Phases Guide
A lunar month lasts about 29.5 days and moves through eight moon phases — New, Waxing Crescent, First Quarter, Waxing Gibbous, Full, Waning Gibbous, Last Quarter, Waning Crescent. Each phase marks how much of the Moon’s Earth-facing side is lit by the Sun, from fully dark at the new moon to fully lit at the full moon.
How to work with the lunar cycle
The cycle is often used as a rhythm for planning: intentions at the New Moon, action at First Quarter, results at the Full Moon, review and release on the way down.
The waxing half suits starting and building; the waning half suits finishing and clearing. That is the whole framework — the rest is detail, and each phase page covers its own.
Nothing about it is prescriptive. It works as a schedule you did not have to invent, which for a lot of people is the useful part.
