People believe that drawing spring water or river water on the Qixi Festival is like drawing water from the Milky Way, which has the sacred power of purification. In some places, it is simply called "Holy Water of Tiansun (i.e. Weaver Girl)". Therefore, it has special meaning for women to wash their hair on this day, which means that using the holy water from the Milky Way to cleanse their hair will surely gain the blessing of the Goddess of Weaving. There is also a popular custom of collecting dew in washbasins. Legend has it that the dew on the Chinese Valentine's Day are the tears of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl when they met. If you smear the dew on your eyes and hands, it can make your eyesight clear and your hands quick. 【Food】Eating chocolate Qiaoguo, also known as "Qiqiao Fruit", comes in many styles. The main ingredients are oil, flour, sugar and honey. Dexterous women can also sculpt various patterns related to the Qixi legend. 【Live】Worship the Weaver Girl The people who worship the Weaver Girl gather five or six people, or as many as ten people, to jointly organize the ceremony. The ceremony was to set up a table under the moonlight, with tea, wine, fruits, five seeds (longan, red dates, hazelnuts, peanuts, melon seeds) and other offerings on the table; There were also a few fresh flowers tied with red paper and placed in a vase, with a small incense burner placed in front of the flowers. Then, the young women and girls who had agreed to participate in the worship of the Weaver Girl fasted for a day, bathed, and came to the host's house on time. After burning incense and worshipping in front of the table, Everyone sat around the table, eating peanuts and melon seeds, looking at the Vega constellation, and silently reciting their own thoughts.
