Each lunar month in Hindu calendar has two Chaturthi Tithis. The one after Purnimasi or full moon
during Krishna Paksha is known as Sankashti Chaturthi and the one after Amavasya or new
moon during Shukla Paksha is known as Vinayaka Chaturthi.
Although Sankashti Chaturthi fasting is done every month but the most significant Sankashti
Chaturthi falls in month of Magha according to Purnimant School and in month of Paush according
to Amavasyant School.
If Sankashti Chaturthi falls on Tuesday it is called Angarki Chaturthi and it is considered highly
auspicious. Sankashti Chaturthi fast is mostly observed in Western and Southern India especially in
Maharashtra and Tamil Nadu.
The fast is supposed to be strict and only fruit, roots (the part of a plant which is below ground) and vegetable products are
supposed to be consumed. The staple Indian diet on Sankashti Chaturthi includes Sabudana Khichadi, potato and peanuts.
Devotees break the fast at night after sighting of the moon.
In North India Sankashti Chaturthi during Magha month is known as Sakat Chauth. Also Vinayaka Chaturthi during Bhadrapada
month is known as Ganesha Chaturthi. Ganesha Chaturthi is celebrated by Hindus all over the world as the birthday of Lord
Ganesha.
Sankashti Chaturthi is also known as Ganesh Sankatahara or Sankatahara Chaturthi among Tamil Hindus.
