💫 Happy Qixi Festival! 七夕快乐! 💕✨
Today is Qixi Festival (七夕节), often called the Chinese Valentine’s Day. Celebrated on the seventh day of the seventh month in the traditional Chinese lunar calendar, Qixi is rooted in the beautiful legend of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl (牛郎织女), two lovers separated by the Milky Way and allowed to meet only once a year. 🌌💕
But Qixi is more than just a love story. Traditionally, it is also a festival celebrating love, devotion, craftsmanship, and the pursuit of dreams.
