New moon, full moon, and the quarters between give you four natural checkpoints a month. Aligning a Project to the Moon is using them.

What it is#

Full moon is peak, visibility, release — a natural moment to review and let go of what’s done.

Why it matters#

Waning (full→new) is the wind-down — finish, tidy, release, rest before the next seed.

How to read it#

New moon is the dark, inward point — traditionally for setting intention, planting seeds, starting quietly.

A simple practice#

A new-moon intention:

1. On the new moon#

Write one intention, not ten. One seed.

2. Make it felt#

A sentence describing life as if it’s already begun.

3. Place it#

Somewhere you’ll see it through the waxing phase.

FAQ#

What if I miss a phase?

The next one comes in about a week. The moon is patient.

Is this connected to manifestation?

Loosely — it gives manifestation a calendar instead of vague ‘someday’.

Do I have to do it on the exact day?

Close enough — within a day or two. The rhythm matters more than precision.
