How to use this month's moon

New Moon in Scorpio (November 9). A good checkpoint for depth and focus. Choose one thing to commit to fully, and let go of one distraction to make room.

Full Moon in Gemini (November 24). Time to review information overload. Close open loops: unanswered messages, half-read articles, unfinished notes.

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.
