A lunar cycle is approximately 29.5 days, so to go from full moon to new moon (mid-cycle) would take just under 15 days. And it would take just under 15 days to go back to full moon and complete the cycle.

Every phase repeats after 29.531 days.

That's . . .

-- 1.055 of a 28-day month.

-- 1.018 of a 29-day month.

-- 0.984 of a 30-day month.

-- 0.953 of a 31-day month.

A full cycle is about 29 1/2 days; so the half cycle you mention would be a bit less than 15 days on average.

That's 1/2 of a full cycle of phases.

The full cycle is 29.53 days, so New Moon to Full Moon is 14.77 days (rounded) The span of time is called a fortnight.

Why moon phases continue?

Phases of the moon are caused by the revolution of the moon around the Earth and the revolution of the Earth around the sun. As long as the moon revolves around the Earth as it does, the lunar cycle from full to new to full again will take about 29½ days. We will be having about twelve and a third moon cycles every year until these facts change.


How long does it take the moon to go from full-moon to new-moon phases?

The full lunar cycle is roughly 4 weeks, and from full-moon to new-moon is half the cycle, so it would take (roughly) 2 weeks to go from full to new moon.


What lunar phase occurs approximately 28 days after a full moon?

What do you call the length of time for the pattern of the moon to repeat?

The lunar phase cycle from a full moon to new moon and back again is called a lunation.However, the moon has an elliptical orbit and is sometimes closer to the earth than at other times. A full moon when it is close to the earth looks bigger than a full moon when it is farthest away. It takes 14 lunations for the pattern of full moons to go from a big full moon (closest to earth) to a small full moon (farthest away) and back again. The 14 lunations are called a full moon cycle.If you wish to consider lunar eclipses then 16 full moon cycles make up a saros. About 40 lunar eclipses occur during a saros and eclipses which occur 1 saros apart are very similar.
