Chinese Valentine's Day


Chinese Valentine's Day is on the 7th July in Chinese lunar calendar. A love story for this day is about the 7th daughter of Emperor of Heaven and an orphaned cowherd.(love love)

The cowherd went to the brook and saw all 7 pretty daughters of Emperor came down from Heaven. He took away her fairy clothes secretly, the youngest and also the most beautiful one. The other six fairies went away after bath. The youngest couldn't fly back without her fairy clothes. Then the cowherd appeared and told her that he would not return her clothes unless she promised to be his wife. After a little hesitation and with a mixture of shyness and eagerness, she agreed to the request from this handsome man. So they married and had two children two years later.
The Emperor found the sky's not that beautiful as before without the 7th daughter weaving clouds and rainbows. He wanted his daughter's grandmother to find the missing daughter and to bring her back. . While the 7th princess was flying to the Heaven with her grandmother, the cowboy wore the ox hide, took his children in two bamboo baskets with his wife's old fairy clothes and chased after his wife in the sky. The grandmother made a milky way in the sky with her hairpin, which kept them separated. The 7th princess was moved to the star Vega (The swooping - Eagle) in the Lyra (Harp) constellation. And the cowherd with his two children stayed in the star Altair (Flying one) in the Aquila (Eagle) constellation. The star of Vega is also known as the Weaving Maid Star and the star of Altair is as the Cowherd Star in China.

Chinese Valentine Story Magpies were moved by their true love and many of them gathered and formed a bridge for the couple to meet in the evening of the 7th day of the 7th lunar month, which is the day the Emperor allowed them to meet once a year.

I did not make the the 7th daughter of Emperor of Heaven and an orphaned cowherd. Because I admire of Japanese kimonos so I put two girls with beautiful kimonos and used the symbol of marriage "囍“ in order to deliver love to all lovely couple in the world.

Wish all couple the happiness.
