How to use this month's moon
New Moon in Capricorn (December 27). A good checkpoint for long-term goals. Break one big ambition into a monthly milestone and put it in your calendar.
Full Moon in Gemini (December 13). 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.
