How to use this month's moon
New Moon in Capricorn (January 7). A good checkpoint for long-term goals. Break one big ambition into a monthly milestone and put it in your calendar.
Full Moon in Leo (January 22). 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.
