    How long does a moon phase last?

    A full lunar cycle (synodic month) takes about 29.5 days. The four main phases – new moon, first quarter, full moon and last quarter – occur roughly every seven days.

    How often does the Moon change sign?

    The Moon moves fast and changes sign about every 2.5 days, so the mood can shift several times a week.
