About this festival

Sankashti Chaturthi is a monthly fast for Lord Ganesha, kept on the fourth day after the full moon. Devotees fast through the day and end it after seeing the moon, so moonrise time decides when the fast ends. When it falls on a Tuesday it is called Angaraki Chaturthi and is considered especially auspicious.
