Why do some religions fast on specific days but not others?

I know many religions have fasting practices, but I’ve always been curious about why certain days are chosen for fasting over others. Like, what makes a specific day more important or sacred than another for fasting? Is it linked to historical events, celestial cycles, or something else? Would love to hear thoughts or explanations from different religious traditions.
