How to use this month's moon
New Moon in Aquarius (February 17). A good checkpoint for experiments and community. Try one new approach to an old problem, or reach out to a group you care about.
Full Moon in Leo (February 1). Time to review recognition. Celebrate one thing you finished, and notice where you have been waiting for applause before acting.
Using the lunar cycle as a planning rhythm gives you a natural reset roughly every two weeks: set intentions at the new moon, check progress at the full moon. More in the new moon routine and the full moon reset.
