In Hindu faith, Chaturthi is dedicated to Lord Ganesha. Lambodara Sankashti Chaturthi is observed on the fourth day of Krishna Paksha (dark lunar phase or the waning phase of the moon).
If this Chaturthi falls on a Tuesday, it is called Angarki Sankashti Chaturthi.
Devotees observe strict fasting during daylight until darshan (sight of the moon). The breaking of the fast is preceded by prayers to Lord Ganesha.
PLEASE NOTE:
We use the Indian Civil Calendar, which is the official holiday calendar in India, the largest Hindu nation. The Hindu faith has many calendars, each specific to different regions and tribes with dates and celebrations marked by differing positions of the sun, moon and stars. Names of months and holidays, as well as the corresponding dates in the Gregorian Calendar, vary widely from one calendar to the next. Use our dates as a baseline. Find out which of the dozens of Hindu calendars is used in the region you live or plan to visit if you are looking to attend or witness a specific observance.
