Why does Sankashti Chaturthi fall on these dates?
The next one, Fri 27 Nov, in Kathmandu
Sankashti Chaturthi is on Fri 27 Nov: Chaturthi holds moonrise that night.
Chaturthi at moonrise, 19:56. Chaturthi: 10:04 to 06:55 Sat.
Chaturthi ended at 06:55; moonrise at 21:07 is Panchami.
One row per day, on one clock (NPT). Band: the tithi. Line: Moonrise. Dark strip: night.
The Sankashti fast is broken at moonrise. Chaturthi runs from 10:04 on Fri 27 Nov to 06:55 on Sat 28 Nov, so it holds moonrise only on Fri 27 Nov, at 19:56. No text giving Sankashti Chaturthi’s time was found; moonrise is Tithika’s convention.
The rule
Every Krishna Chaturthi
The Sankashti fast is broken at moonrise.
- Smarta
- the night whose moonrise Chaturthi holds: Tithika’s convention, since no text gives the time.
- Vaishnava
- the Smarta day.
