The Chinese Valentine's Day has the meaning of begging for luck, yearning for love, and praying.
The Chinese Valentine's Day, also known as the Qiqiao Festival and the Girl's Day, is a traditional Chinese festival. The festival comes from the legend of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl and is celebrated on the seventh day of the seventh lunar month.
In ancient times, whenever the seventh sister was born, women would offer sacrifices to the seventh sister to pray for dexterity and a happy marriage. This is the origin of the name "Qiqiao". Women will also use five-colored thin threads to thread a needle against the moon and the wind, and the needle will last for a long time.
Over time, Chinese Valentine's Day has also become "Girls' Day". The Chinese Valentine's Day is based on the folklore of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl. It expresses the emotions of married men and women who will never leave each other and grow old together. What they abide by is their commitment to love.
