New moon, full moon, and the quarters between give you four natural checkpoints a month. The Full-Moon Review is using them.

What it is#

Waxing (new→full) is the build — a good arc for projects, habits, and momentum.

Why it matters#

Tracking the moon pairs well with any habit: one tiny aligned action each phase is enough.

How to read it#

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

A simple practice#

A full-moon release:

1. On the full moon#

List what’s finished or no longer serving.

2. Mark it done#

Cross it out, literally. The hand signals the mind.

3. Rest#

Let the waning phase be lower-effort by design.

FAQ#

Do I have to do it on the exact day?

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

Is it scientific?

The moon affects tides; the rest is a useful human structure, not physics.

What if I miss a phase?

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