How to use this month's moon

New Moon in Scorpio (October 29). 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 Aries (October 15). Time to review where impatience cost you. Notice which plans you abandoned too early and which fights were not worth it.

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.
