What day is the day? The origin and meaning of the ceremony The day of death has many deep and touching meanings in Eastern culture. However, for many people, the holidays are quite far away. The uneven oriental culture is considered a Valentine's Day or sometimes also called Westerners as East Asian Valentine's Day and is held on the 7th of the 7th lunar month every year. This holiday is based on a fairy tale from China called Niu Lang Nu. Legend has it that Niu Lang is a poor but very hard -working buffalo guy who has gained the affection of the fairy -daughter, the youngest daughter of the royal lady, specializing in weaving the five -colored clouds in the sky. The two of them married the couple, spent the happy years together and had 2 children and one boy and one girl. But one day, the female position must return to heaven at the command of Ngoc De. Niu Lang miserably chased, but blocked by the Galaxy River, the boundary between the two realms of the fairy. Then Niu Lang was definitely waiting there, not to leave. Since then, besides the Galaxy River, there is another star, people call it Sao Nguu Lang. Vuong Mau, who sympathized with the sincere love of Niu Lang, agreed to give them every year on the day of death (7.7 lunar calendar) met once. There are many forms of festivals on the occasion of the loss in China. However, the most common custom on this occasion is: On the 7.7th night of the lunar calendar, the women prayed to get skillful hands. On this day, young girls display homemade art items to pray for good husbands. The holidays in Japan are called the Tanabata ceremony. On this day, the Japanese will write their wishes on colorful pieces of tanzaku and hang on the bamboo branches in front of the house to pray for luck, bumper crop and prosperity. Young people also go to the temples on the tanabata holiday to pray, looking forward to finding the loyalty. The holiday has existed in Vietnamese culture for a long time. On this day, many people have been taboo to get married for fear of encountering unfortunate things like Niu Lang and women. Instead, people often go to the temple to pray to pray for good things, peace and favor in the path of love. In addition, young people often spread their mouths that they eat red bean tea to hope that the couple's love is more sustainable or single people find love for themselves.
