What is the Chinese Valentine’s Day?

The earliest record of the "Qixi Festival" comes from "Xijing Miscellaneous Notes" by Ge Hong of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, which wrote: "Beautiful women in the Han Dynasty often threaded seven-hole needles in the Kaijin Tower on July 7, and everyone was used to it." This shows that the custom of "threading needles to pray for dexterity" on the Qixi Festival had already been formed in the Eastern Han Dynasty. During the Wei, Jin and Southern and Northern Dynasties, many poems describing the customs of the Qixi Festival began to emerge. The most common ones are poems describing threading a needle on the Chinese Valentine's Day. "I walk on the moon as if with purpose, and I can't help my emotions. I draw a ray of light and raise my sleeves to play with two needles." The activity of "begging for skills" was very popular in ancient imperial palaces. On this night, all the concubines and maids in the palace would beg for the wonderful craftsmanship in various ways. It is said that Emperor Xuanzong of Tang and his concubines would have a night banquet in the palace on every Chinese Valentine's Day. Each palace maid would put a small spider in a box and wait until the next day to see if the spider had made a web. If the web was perfect and beautiful, it was a sign of luck! During the Song and Yuan dynasties, the Chinese Valentine's Day became more grand. Kaifeng, Dadu and other places have "Qiqiao Markets". From the first day of July, people start to buy items for Qiqiao. The Qiqiao Markets are bustling with people and cars. When it is close to the Chinese Valentine's Day, the Qiqiao Markets are even more crowded and spectacular. Song Dynasty Luoye and Jin Yingzhi compiled "Zuiweng Tanlu" said: "On the Qixi Festival, people buy and sell things for begging for cleverness in front of Pan Tower. From July 1st, carriages and horses are blocked, and three days before the Qixi Festival, carriages and horses are blocked and cannot pass, and the traffic is not clear until night." This is a true portrayal of the grand occasion of the Qixi Festival at that time, and it also shows that the "Qixi Festival" was one of the ancients' favorite festivals.
