The Qixi Festival, also known as Chinese Valentine's Day, has a rich history that dates back to ancient China. Its origins can be traced to a romantic legend involving two lovers, Zhinü and Niulang, who were separated by the Milky Way but were allowed to meet once a year on the seventh day of the seventh lunar month.

Here is the English translation of the legend's origin:
The Qixi Festival has its roots in a traditional Chinese myth about two lovers, Zhinü (a weaver fairy) and Niulang (a cowherd). According to the story, Zhinü was a celestial maiden who fell in love with Niulang, a mortal. However, the gods were against their love, and they separated them by placing the Milky Way in between them.
The couple was only allowed to meet once a year, on the seventh day of the seventh lunar month. On this day, magpies would form a bridge across the Milky Way, allowing the two lovers to reunite. This day is celebrated as the Qixi Festival, where people often express their love and admiration for their partners, and young women in particular participate in various rituals to pray for a good marriage.
The Qixi Festival has evolved over time, and today, it is a time for couples to celebrate their love, much like Valentine's Day in the Western world. It is marked by the exchange of gifts, romantic gestures, and sometimes even arranged meetings under the stars.
