Valentine's Day in China, whether in the solar calendar or the lunar calendar, has a short-lived meaning.

Valentine's Day on Tanabata is a solar calendar or a lunar calendar: the lunar calendar.

Valentine's Day on Qixi is celebrated according to the lunar calendar. Tanabata is a traditional festival in China, so we only use the lunar calendar to determine the date of Chinese Valentine's Day, and Chinese Valentine's Day is based on the lunar calendar.

In China, the seventh day of the seventh lunar month is commonly known as China Valentine's Day, and some people call it "Qiaoqi Festival", "Chinese Valentine's Day", "Daughter's Day" or "Qixi Love Story". This is the most romantic festival among the traditional festivals in China, and it is also the most important day for girls in the past. On the night in Xiguan, women prayed for Fu Lushou. On the seventh day, the ceremony was pious and grand, and flowers and fruits were displayed. All kinds of furniture and utensils are exquisite and small, which makes people fondle them.

Tanabata is nicknamed "Zhou". Wang Bo's Tanabata Fu "Stay in the Week, Full Moon and Evening" compares the week with the moon and evening, and points out the two most beautiful and touching nights related to family and love in a year. Because of this, later generations call the auspicious day for men and women to get married "Zhou".

On a clear summer and autumn night, the sky is full of stars, and a white galaxy spans the north and south like a bridge. On the east and west banks of the river, there is a shining star across the river, that is Altair and Vega.

Tanabata means very short.

Begging and praying in Qixi culture embodies the spirit of the Chinese nation's diligence and wisdom, unremitting self-improvement, courage to create, and constant pursuit of a happier and better life.

Tanabata culture praises the faithful concept of marriage and love, which embodies people's yearning and pursuit of ideal love. It inherits and carries forward the fine traditional virtues of the Chinese nation and embodies a strong sense of responsibility, which is different from the more romantic view of love in western culture.

Cultural spirit has played a role in promoting social development in history and has become the internal ideological source of historical development. Cultural spirit not only has strong cohesion and centripetal force, which is accepted and understood by most people, but also is the life of a nation.
