Did you know that today is Qixi (七夕), often known as the Chinese Valentine’s Day? ❤️

Celebrated on the 7th day of the 7th month of the lunar calendar, Qixi comes from the romantic legend of the Cowherd (牛郎) and the Weaver Girl (织女) 🪡 Two lovers who are separated by the Milky Way and are said to meet just once a year, on this special night🌌✨

❤️ 七夕快乐！Wishing everyone a Qixi filled with love and happiness!
