When is wife's day?

In fact, the seventh day of the seventh lunar month, when the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl meet, is the Wife's Day, which is the Valentine's Day in China. Because Cowherd and Weaver Girl got married, this day should be China's wife's day. July 7th is a traditional folk festival in China. Valentine's Day in China evolved from the worship of the stars, and it is Seven Sisters's birthday in the traditional sense. Because of the worship of Seven Sisters on the seventh day of July, it was named Tanabata.

It is the traditional custom of Qixi to worship the seven sisters, pray, seek skillful art, sit and watch morning glory and weave stars, pray for marriage and store water on Qixi. After historical development, Tanabata has been endowed with the beautiful love legend of Cowherd and Weaver Girl, making it a festival symbolizing love. It is regarded as the most romantic traditional festival in China, and it also has the cultural significance of China Valentine's Day in contemporary times.

Call on men to cook in person on this day 1 hour, cook a special husband's dish for their wives and create a warm dinner, so that the whole family can enjoy a harmonious kitchen and a happy home.

July 7 custom

1, worship the weaver girl

Worship the weaver girl is a matter for girls and young women. Most of them make an appointment with friends or neighbors in advance, and five or six people, at most a dozen people, will hold it together. The ceremony is to lay a table in the moonlight, and then put sacrifices such as tea, wine, fruit and Wuzi on the table, in which Wuzi refers to longan, red dates, hazelnuts, peanuts and melon seeds.

2. Seek children through education.

This is an ancient custom. A few days before Tanabata, first put a layer of soil on the small board and plant the seeds of millet to make it grow green seedlings. Then put some small huts and flowers on it to make it look like a small village called shell board, or soak mung beans, adzuki beans and wheat in a porcelain bowl until they grow into inch-by-inch buds, and then tie them together with red and blue silk threads.
