What to do

This is the midday one. The puja belongs in the madhyahna window and the fast is broken after it. Its twin, Sankashti Chaturthi in the dark fortnight, is the one where you wait for the moon. Two chaturthis a month, two different rules, and they are easy to confuse.

Keep ready: The midday window for your own city, since it moves with sunrise.
