A full lunar cycle is about 29 1/2 days - a little over 4 weeks.
Roughly approximately about 29.531 days, which is 4.2187 weeks.
Almost 4 weeks.
The next full moon will typically occur after about 14-15 days from a new moon. This is because the lunar cycle lasts approximately 29.5 days, meaning it takes that long for the moon to go from new moon to full moon and back to new moon again.
It takes approximately 14 days to go from a new moon to the next full moon.
New Moon
The 29-day lunar cycle begins with the New Moon, and "waxes" or increases the illuminated part for 14.5 days until the Full moon. Then it "wanes" as the illuminated area of the Moon decreases until the next new moon.
A solar eclipse can only occur at the moment of New Moon. Two weeks after that moment is about 18 hours before Full Moon.

It comes out on the 20th of November 2009.
Approximately two weeks after the new moon, the phase of the moon is the full moon. This is because it takes about 29.5 days for the moon to complete its cycle from new moon to new moon, with the full moon occurring halfway through.
30 days
The moon orbits the Earth and makes a full revolution in a period of about 28 days. Since the moon does not produce it's own light, one side of the moon is always in sunlight at any given time. During the first two weeks of the lunar month (starting from New Moon), more of the sunlit portion can be seen from Earth - this is called "waxing". During the other two weeks, less of the sunlit portion can be seen from Earth and we refer to this as "waning".
