What does Qiqiao on the Chinese Valentine's Day mean?Qixi Festival is one of China's traditional festivals, and begging for skills is one of the traditional customs of the Qixi Festival.It is said that from the first to the seventh day of the seventh lunar month every year, young girls wearing new clothes would beg the Weaver Girl for wisdom and skill in the courtyard, which was called "begging for skill". Legend has it that the so-called Seventh Sister actually refers to the weaving expert in heaven. In the old days, women begged the Seventh Sister for help, begging her to teach them the skill of weaving. The so-called "begging for skill" is nothing more than "competing for skill". Most ways of begging for skill are for girls to thread a needle to test their skill, make some small items to compete in skill, and place some fruits and vegetables to beg for skill. The traditional folk ways of begging for skill in different places are different and interesting in their own way. In modern times, threading a needle, steaming buns, baking fruits, growing sprouts, and decorations made of dough, paper cutting, and colorful embroidery are also extensions of the custom of begging for skills. |
