Details:
There are 14 vrat stories of Ganesh Chaturthi. Out of 14, 12 studies fasting on the Chaturthi of Krishna Paksha of every month. And to complete the fast, we offer water to the moon. Whereas the one, which falls on Chaturthi of Shulka Paksha in Bhadra month, we usually only do Katha and not fast. If one wishes to observe a fast on this day, they are not allowed to offer water to the moon as it is a curse to see the moon on that day. While 14th is of Adhimas (which comes once every three years.)
