Vinayaka Chaturthi January 2022: Date, Puja Shubh Muhurat, Significance and all you need to know
The 4th day also called Chaturthi Tithi during the brighter phase of the moon also called Shukla Paksha is important for devotees of Lord Ganesha and is known as Vinayaka Chaturthi.
Lord Ganesha, also known as 'Vighnaharta' is one of the most revered Hindu deities.
During the brighter phase of the moon (Shukla Paksha) on the 4th day (Chaturthi) devotees of Ganesha observe Vinayaka Chaturthi.
Interestingly, the main Vinayaka Chaturthi is celebrated during the Bhadrapada month. But the monthly ritual is equally significant.
Along with a day-long vrat, devotees also perform Ganesha puja and end the vrat only after worshipping the deity. They observe the vrat to seek his blessings and pray for a hurdle-free life. This is a monthly ritual so the day is also called Masik Vinayaka Chaturthi.
The first Vinayaka Chaturthi of the year will be celebrated on January 6.
