That would be the time from New Moon to Full Moon, which is one half of the synodic month = 14.765 days = something like 14days 18hours
The complete cycle of the moon's 'phases' ... the time to go from any shapeto the next appearance of the same shape ... averages 29.531 days.
The complete cycle of all moon phases is 29.53 days (rounded) on the average, with small variations depending on the exact interplay between the non-circular orbits of the earth and moon, which causes relatively small changes in their speeds along their respective paths. But those variations aren't really large enough for the casual observer to notice. For our practical purposes, it's accurate enough to say simply that the time period from any phase until the same thing shows up again is 29.53 days. (rounded)
At the time of the "First Quarter" and "Third Quarter" phases, the moon appears half-illuminated. These occasions are roughly 7 days and 21 days after New Moon respectively, and Full Moon occurs at the time exactly midway between them. Note: Both phases are easily visible in the daytime. First Quarter rises in the east around Noon, and Third Quarter sets in the west around Noon.
the moon turns full in about 28.5 days or so, so you can split the skies into sections and measure the amount of days from the last time you saw it
A full moon rises at sunset.
A full cycle - e.g., from full moon to full moon - is about 29 1/2 days. From new moon to full moon is half that time.A full cycle - e.g., from full moon to full moon - is about 29 1/2 days.

Each night the moon rise changes, So.... If you go to timeanddate.com, you can select a location in the drop-down menu and see times for moonrise and moonset in that location. Also provided is local time when the Moon passes the meridian with distance, fraction of the Moon illuminated and moon phase.
It rises on June 4
The time from one full moon to the next ... or between two occurrences of any phase of the moon ...is 27.32 days.

it rises at sunset and sets at sunrise
The time between two full moons is about 29.53 days (29 days, 12 hours, 44 minutes).So new Moon to full Moon is half this period or about 14.765 days.
22.148 days after the New Moon, and 7.383 days after the Full Moon. (figures are rounded)
That would be the time from New Moon to Full Moon, which is one half of the synodic month = 14.765 days = something like 14days 18hours
The moon was full on October 23, 2010, and it's not full on October 26th, 2010. The Full Moon always rises very close to the time of sunset.
A "month". And its 29 days (or 29 and a half).
