(In 2022, Qixi falls on August 4; in 2023 it falls on August 22.) In olden days it was the practice for unmarried people to pray for a spouse, but today\u2019s Qixi looks pretty similar to February 14, with romance and gift giving. This has sometimes earned Qixi the nickname \u201cChinese Valentine\u2019s Day.\u201d There\u2019s also a legend about the origin of the festival.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Legend of Cowherd and Weaver Girl \u725b\u90ce\u7ec7\u5973 (Ni\u00fal\u00e1ng Zh\u012bn\u01da)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As always with legends, there are different variations of this story, but here\u2019s the basic version.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once, there was a young boy who herded cattle. In Chinese he is called \u725b\u90ce (Ni\u00fal\u00e1ng), rendered in English as Cowherd. Once when he was out herding, he came across a group of female immortals bathing in a river. He stole the clothes of one of these immortals and demanded that the owner marry him in exchange for her clothing. Somehow, that worked, and the two fell in love and got married. The immortal lived life on Earth with her husband and worked at a loom, becoming known as \u7ec7\u5973 (Zh\u012bn\u01da) or Weaver Girl in English.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When the Queen Mother of the West (\u897f\u738b\u6bcd, X\u012bw\u00e1ngm\u01d4) caught wind of this marriage between a human and an immortal, she personally came down to Earth to get Weaver Girl and take her back to Heaven. Cowherd gave chase with the help of a magic cowskin, pursuing them through the sky. But when the Queen Mother waved her hairpin like a magic wand, she created a huge river in the sky to block Cowherd\u2019s way and keep him separated from Weaver Girl.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Suddenly, an enormous flock of magpies appeared, flying so densely that they made a bridge that Cowherd and Weaver Girl could walk across. The Queen Mother was so moved that she agreed to allow the two lovers meet on this magpie bridge once a year, on the seventh day of the seventh month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the night sky, Cowherd is the star Altair, Weaver Girl is the star Vega and the river is the Milky Way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/images.unsplash.com\/photo-1464802686167-b939a6910659?ixlib=rb-1.2.1&amp;ixid=MnwxMjA3fDB8MHxwaG90by1wYWdlfHx8fGVufDB8fHx8&amp;auto=format&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=850&amp;q=80\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Expressing love in Chinese<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are some of the most common ways to express your love, whether it\u2019s Valentine\u2019s Day or Qixi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Confessing your love \u8868\u767d (bi\u01ceob\u00e1i)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Got a crush?
